Description
|
|
|
|
Winning a 2005 Audie Award, this is the second anthology of greatest hits from the Peabody Award–winning Lost & Found Sound radio series, heard on NPR's All Things Considered. A collection of eccentric, endangered, and rediscovered sounds and oral traditions, this recording provides a glimpse of America's recorded history, narrated by Francis Ford Coppola. Here is the surprising tale of Liberace and the Trinidad Tripoli Steelband, the saga of Sun Studios producer Sam Phillips, voices from the Dust Bowl, and stories of Mohawk ironworkers and Vietnamese manicurists in America. Here too, Harry S. Truman dedicates a shopping mall on land where his boyhood home once stood; a collection of sounds from old-fashioned electric fans; and a 1977 recording of Coppola himself interviewing his then-5-year-old daughter Sofia.
