Podcast focusing on John Lomax recordings
« on: July 07, 2017, 10:07:16 AM »
Hi all,
Not sure if this has been shared here before, searching didn't indicate it had, but the podcast is a few years old so who knows. Anyway, I stumbled on it today and have been enjoying it so thought I'd share.

The podcast is here:
http://mpegmedia.abc.net.au/rn/podcast/2012/07/itm_20120707_1605.mp3

Here's a description from the place where I found it:
"In this radio journey, narrated by folklorist Hal Cannon, we retrace the back roads of Texas and Louisiana to discover why the folk music that John Lomax documented in the early 20th century still resonates with us today. Join Cannon as he follows Lomax?s path, listening to the original recordings he made, visiting some of the places where Lomax recorded, and talking with the grandchildren of those he recorded."

The site has several other podcasts listed, many of which are likely of interest to some of you:
