ESL104 is the catalogue number of a 1969 Standard Music Library album of "sound effects". It was:

Recorded while Delia was still employed at the Radiophonic Workshop and working on the White Noise LP. [...] originally released under the pseudonym Russe (a.k.a. Li De la Russe - or "Of the Red" - a reference to her auburn red hair) also features work from David Vorhaus and Brian Hodgson (aka St. George - he was also still under contract to the Beeb!)[1]

This rare mono record was "caned" to provide the music for the '70s television series "The Tomorrow People" and "Timeslip".

Track list[2]

The tracks with links on the titles and spectrograms are the ones credited to Delia; the "Delia's ..." tracks are reworkings of her music for the 1968 film Work Is A Four Letter Word.
