Episode 34

Episode 34 is here! The technical problems still have not been fixed, but I found a work-around that will allow us to move forward. The fund raiser is coming, but I have postponed it in light of the recent events from Hurricane Sandy. I just didn't feel right putting up a fund raiser while people in the NY area (and Cuba and Haiti) need funds so badly.

This week, we welcomed friend of the show Bryan Clark back for more discussion. We talked about modernist classical composer Elliott Carter, the original country superstars The Carter Family, British storyteller Martin Carthy, samba pioneer Cartola, and opera legend Enrico Caruso.

Update!

Hello 1,000 Recordings fans! I just wanted to give you all an update on what is going on with the podcast. About a month ago, shortly after recording an interview for my other podcast (All the Cool Parts), I had a major equipment failure. I was VERY lucky to have saved the interview (I sent it to my sometimes co-host Jon Kulp) before the crash, however, the failure has left me unable to podcast until I replace the equipment.

I will be announcing an indiegogo.com fundraiser to raise money for new equipment, benefiting this podcast, as well as my other podcast, All the Cool Parts Podcast. I already have some really great perks lined up, donated by some awesome folks, including signed copies of 1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die, autographed CDs from the California Guitar Trio and classical guitarist Jason Vieaux, and more. Stay tuned - I'll have more details and a link to the fundraiser page very soon!
