Poetry in motion


On An Overgrown Path does not have a message, so no apologies for this post being off-message. There are family connections to Formula One which continue to this day, and the photos were taken by me in the workshop of Classic Team Lotus in Hethel, which is a short distance from where we live in Norfolk. A past post told how the 1961 Formula 1 world champion American Phil Hill listened to Bártok's string quartets and Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony on a Concertone reel-to-reel tape player in between races.


To my great regret no review samples were flowed to me for use in this post. Any copyrighted material is included as "fair use" for critical analysis only, and will be removed at the request of copyright owner(s). Also on Facebook and Twitter.

As a music lover and sim racer it was nice to see a combo of two of my interests on your blog. Lotus being the team of my all time driving hero Jim Clark.
Great pics as well.
