BACKGROUND
In keeping with a principal theme of BBC Proms 2005, I have chosen songs inspired by the lure of the foam-crested brine, and the bait of exotica and intoxica which lurk beneath the waves. I cannot bring myself to apologise for including, once again, Captain Beefheart and Robert Wyatt in a Your 3 playlist.
