This was recorded in 1972 by students from the Footscray Technical College in Melbourne, Australia for a drama production entitled ‘There’s an Elf in My Pocket’. Released in an edition of 100.

Those Footscray Tech kids created a few heart-achingly beautiful folk songs for their 'Elf-In-My-Pocket' show... The title track is particularly haunting (although I suppose that depends on if 'There's an Elf in My Pocket' is some obscure early-seventies-cultural reference or a puerile 'dick' joke--I'm going with the former). They also recorded a few 'rock' songs here, too, and while they're far from bad, they don't reach the same heights as the acoustic tracks.........by..jelbogen ....
