Hi EchidnaZ,
Great entry on the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy history, with one small problem. Paddy Kingsland never arranged, performed or produced a version of "Journey of the Sorcerer". The radio version was by the Eagles and the Original Records vinyls and TV versions used versions arranged and performed by Tim Souster (an avant-garde composer who died in 1994).
Otherwise, thanks for providing me with extra knowledge on Hitchhiker's!
Cheers,
Cyvros, Your Friendly Neighbourhood Manchester Supplier

Slight amendment: Paddy Kingsland presumably arranged and performed the "Grand" version of the theme for the final scene of the TV Series.

Someone else on H2G2 said it was Paddy Kingsland who did it and I took his word for it.

Okay. I have the vinyls, the TV series and the radio series floating around somewhere in the incredibly messy maze I tend to call my bedroom... I really need to clean up...
