Life on Earth was a precedent-setting natural history programme that first aired in 1979. The program's sound design was created by Edward Williams but was never officially released. In fact, the copy procured by Trunk was one of a handful Williams privately pressed for posterity on behalf of family, friends and members of his orchestra. Thanks to Trunk's diligence, we can now bathe in what might well be God's own library muzak.
