This playlist features recordings from the Accents & Dialects and World & Traditional music collections of the British Library Sound Archive and has been curated by the artist Jill McKnight, as part of her exhibition 'Desire Lines' at Leeds Art Gallery and online from 25 March to 16 October 2022. Jill took inspiration from these collections and those of Leeds Art Gallery in the creation of her new artworks for the exhibition.

It also includes new recorded versions of the songs 'The Derby Ram' and 'The Cruise of the Calabar' performed by the Yorkshire Trans Choir, which were chosen by the artist for their focus on reinterpreting traditional folk songs with a political twist.

Seattle's Milton Simons (1923-1973) was an acclaimed painter and talented vibraphonist. In March 1971 he formed the band Jasis with Paul Dusenbury (piano and flute), Milt Gerard (bass), and Jimmie Williams (percussion). They recorded later that year at Kearney Barton's 5th Avenue studio and released the album on Barton's Topaz label. Called Jasis: Spontaneous Improvisation, the music consists of three tracks, two on side one ("Bhimpalas” and "Spanish Mode"), and one on side two ("Inner Space").  The master tapes came to UW as part of Kearney Barton’s archive in 2010. We’ve digitized and posted these out of print recordings here.
