A Roeg/Radiophonic Connection?



Spotted, in the Wikipedia entry on The Man Who Fell To Earth, at the bottom of the subsection on the soundtrack:

"Special electronic and oceanic effects were done by Desmond Briscoe and Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institution
"


Barely related data morsel: Jim O'Rourke has recorded albums titled Bad Timing, Eureka!, Insignificance and The Visitor--the latter being the recording alias adopted by Thomas Jerome Newton, after he's been released by the authorities but is not allowed to return to his home planet. Do we actually get to hear any of the music Newton makes?

Here's a bit where he's talking about his record.
