OFF: BBC sound pioneer dies

[William Duffy]

She also worked on the superb first album by White Noise. Worth grabbing if
you ever come across it!

Delia Derbyshire, the musician who first realised Dick Grainger's theme tune
for Dr Who, as one of the first fully electronic signature tunes recorded
died last week.  I find it hard to believe that the original version of the
Dr Who music, that captured the imaginations of so many of us in our youths,
cannot have been a great influence on the likes of Del Detmar, Dik Mik and
Dave.
