Music journalist Pete Paphides reveals the stories and music behind some of the great albums which were never released.

After Vashti Bunyan tried and failed to secure herself a career as a willowy chanteuse, she left it all behind and moved to join her friend Donovan, who was in the process of setting up a commune in the Outer Hebrides. On her journey north in a Romany caravan, she wrote the songs which would surface in the late 1990s as Just Another Diamond Day.
