This custom EMI pressing of Naked Island by Astor Records features songs performed by the Six Castaways, the Tongan schoolboys whose 1965 shipwreck inspired comparisons to The Lord of the Flies.

The recording captures their own voices, reflecting on the ordeal of being stranded on the uninhabited island of 'Ata and yearning for rescue. Gentle acoustic melodies, spoken-word passages and unified harmonies in this clip create a melancholy, intimate experience for listeners as the boys sing of their island and cry for the sea to send them home. Music serves as an avenue for emotional recollection, capturing the stark loneliness of an experience that transcends words.

The boys were stranded on the island for 15 months after stealing a fishing boat before they were eventually rescued by Australian adventurer Peter Warner. While their story was dramatised in a 1966 ATN-7 re-enactment documentary, this recording captures their unfiltered perspective.
