And speaking of Brian Eno (and, by association, British rock in general...), a couple of the more surprising names pop up:
Patrick Campbell-Lyons (he of the duo Nirvana [NOT the Kurt Cobain version!]) did one for Bruton called "Ireland" (
https://www.discogs.com/master/1793108-Patrick-Campbell-Lyons-Ireland);
and Henry Marsh (of the 70s group Sailor ["A Glass of Champagne"]) did a couple for Carlin that included his cohort on the bass side of the Nickelodeon, Phil Pickett
(

).
Now if only Bill Nelson did a couple...

Talk about 'I spoke too soon'! Remember my comment about if only Bill Nelson (Be-Bop Deluxe) had done a library album?
Silly me. He did!
(Matter of fact, it was even listed here!) It was called "Chameleon". I'm listening to it now.
Good stuff!

And speaking of Be-Bop Deluxe... Who knew their keyboardist, Andy Clark, put out so many library albums? Certainly not me... and I'm listening to one right now on YouTube! (It's a KPM offering called "The Next One", and it's good!)

Maury Laws, who was the musical director for the Rankin/Bass studio known for their various holiday specials, has a single cue on the Chappell library ("The Accuser" on C. 938).

Maurice Jarre, known for his film work (GRAND PRIX, for example) wrote some tracks for KPM.

And his son Jean-Michel's first album was released on Synchro-Fox!
KPM was offered Oxygene as a part of a package from the Francis Dreyfus catalogue, but Robin Philips turned it down

Apparently, Billy May wrote several tracks for Sonoton.
