{"product_id":"public-service-broadcasting-the-last-flight-cd","title":"Public Service Broadcasting \/ The Last Flight CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Last Flight concerns the final voyage of America's pioneering female \"aviatrix\" Amelia Earhart. In 1922, aged just 25, Earhart flew higher than any woman before her, and in the years that followed she became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, setting multiple speed and distance records. In 1937 she announced that she would circumnavigate the globe in her Lockheed Model 10-E Electra aircraft. She crossed the Americas, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. She left Papua New Guinea to fly to Howland Island in the Central Pacific but never made it, instead ascending to the level of myth reserved for the bravest adventurers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Last Flight is similarly full of life-force, evoking adventure, speed and freedom as well as the psychological depths of a unique and admirable individual. Recorded in the band's southeast London studio, with one day for strings at The Church in north London with the London Contemporary Orchestra, The Last Flight's guests include Carl Broemel from My Morning Jacket on Eno-esque pedal steel, Berlin voices Andreya Casablanca and EERA who both appeared on Bright Magic, as well as This Is The Kit's Kate Stables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eListeners may be surprised that the album does not feature original first-person testimony, but dialogue newly recorded by actors, including Kate Graham who read Amelia. This was then sensitively manipulated to give thirties sonic characteristics and distortion. Earhart's first-hand writings including 1937's Last Flight was used as a start point, along with the biography East To The Dawn by Susan Butler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eTRACKLIST:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_1d68rll0\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1.
