Description: Experience the evocative sounds of the historic 1966 Isle of Man TT, capturing the action, atmosphere and magic of this unique event. Originally released on vinyl as part of the Stanley Schofield Sound Stories collection, these wonderful recordings have been digitally remastered and are presented here with original LP sleeve notes. The now legendary "Voice of Motorsport" Murray Walker provides the commentary, and conducts interviews with the stars of the day in this fine TT review. Close your eyes and let the roaring engines transport you back to 1966, the year when racing was postponed for the first time in the TT's almost 60-year history. You are treated to the fabulous sounds of the Honda Fours, high-revving 50cc Suzuki twin, single cylinder machinery from AJS, Matchless and Norton, three cylinder MVs and many more conjuring up images of a golden era of motorcycle racing. You'll hear these marvellous machines at full chat as they p the landmarks of the world-famous TT circuit, with Walker charting the race action as it unfolds. The CD features drama from the Senior, Junior, 125cc and 50cc TTs. Among the many highlights are Mike Hailwood's record-breaking win in the Senior, Giacomo Agostini securing his first TT victory, maiden wins for Ralph Bryans and Bill Ivy, plus the emergence of brilliant new talent. Alongside the evocative sounds of iconic motorcycles are the views of the legendary racers, including interviews with Hailwood, Agostini, Ivy and Bryans. The wonderful exhaust notes, commentary and interviews are not only a vintage treat, but bring you drama and action of a festival of truly thrilling racing.
