We are very pleased to bring to you author Colin Wilson's talk at the first ever Jack the Ripper Conference, held in Ipswich 12-14 April, 1996. This 22 year old audience recording was rescued from a second hand bookshop by Mark Ripper and we are grateful to Mark for saving this piece of Ripperology history so that we may share it with you.

Originally recorded on a 120 minute long cassette tape- I left the tape flip around the 55 minute mark intact- and sometime later transferred to CD, this specific recording is believed to be from the collection of the late Jeremy Beadle. It is beginning to show its age, but the historical value of the talk outweighs the deteriorating quality of the audio. I applied noise reduction to eliminate a significant amount of white-noise hiss and amplified the vocals.
After so many years, the recording is in a poor state, but to my ears still listenable.
Available now to stream or download at the following link:
Also in iTunes, TuneIn Radio, MixCloud and any old podcast app you can find.
Thank you again to Mark Ripper!
And thanks for listening,
