Sins ... Actually YES ... you will hear one snippet of a recording of Walt Robertson singing a concert at Eagleson Hall, in Seattle, in 1958. And I will have a recording of the live show on a CD.

In addition, you will hear a brief snippet of Bill Higley (AKA WilliWaw Willy.

This "coming together" of the U.W. and I has been very rewarding. John Vallier, my collaborator at the U.W. has been a blessing to me. Early on, he caught the importance of the collection and has thrown all of his resources into the project. I'm sleeping a lot better since I signed the agreement with the University.

I can't help but wonder just how many thousands of valuable R/R tape recording are out there, stored away in attics, garages, etc. bob(deckman)nelson
