A collection of songs published in typescript in 1964 by the Notting Hill Music Group (which was centred at Notting Hill Methodist Church, London).
It contained eight songs, of which six were by Geoffrey Ainger (four of them to tunes also by him, the other two tunes being by Ian Calvert; one hymn was by Handley Stevens (tune also by Ian Calvert), and the remaining hymn (words and tune) was by Harry Goodram.
The booklet contained an Editorial postscript:
"These songs, written and used by the Notting Hill Music Group, we wrote for ourselves. They represent no attempt to be `with it' or to `get outsiders in' or any such illicit thing. We wrote them for ourselves and we have enjoyed them. In them we have tried to give expression to the fact that we are secular Christians, very much concerned with the things of this world, and feel free to express satire, resentment and doubt. Whether or not our forefathers would regard these as being `pious lays', we are convinced that Christians should produce for our time not only hymns and works for use in worship, but also a sort of folk music to be sung in clubs and pubs and homes.In publishing these songs we hope that you will either use and enjoy them or be so exasperated by them that you will be stung into writing your own; which would be even better."
