Songs Of The Humpback Whale - Dr. Roger Payne, 1970



A lot of good blogs have made mention of this record, but most of the links for it are dead. It's a total gem.

"The rare recordings are from a 'Bel Canto' era of whale singing. Even though Humpbacks change their songs every year, none from recent years has been so beautiful as these they sang in the 1960's."
... can you argue with that?
