The Langley Schools Music Project is a collection of recordings of children's choruses singing pop hits by the Beach Boys, Paul McCartney, David Bowie, and others. Originally recorded in 1976–77, they were found and rereleased 25 years later (in 2001) and became a cult hit and a successful example of outsider music. It was rereleased on vinyl March 9, 2018, by Bar/None Records.
