- Alan Lomax interviewed by Charles Kuralt at Lomax's Hunter College office, New York City, 1991. Part three of four. An edited portion of this interview appeared in a CBS Sunday Morning segment on Lomax later that year.
Genius
This guy is a genius.
Pleased to find this channel and see a rather respectable following, given the nature of the content. Lomax is a legend ❤ so grateful I found the Spanish cd at the library and that opened a world... the gift of global travel... and time travel!

If you don't listen to any other part of this, at least skip 4:30 and let it lead you into the next few lines. That is what this is about.
Increadible how a person who devoted so much of his life to audible culture became fascinated with subliminal non verbal perception, and how his journey got him there. Fascinating that, it seems, his realisation of the failure of nuance in notation and transcription was the trigger for this.
The Tesla of musical archivists
At 1:48 he starts talking about a Welshman who wrote 45 pages of biography who 'wrote like an angel'. Does anybody know if that document can be found anywhere? Or the author's name perhaps? I''d love to read that.
Coen He is referring to Woodie Guthrie. I haven’t seen the original but in the Library of Congress website you can read several letters and Alan Lomax’s write up of him.
He means that Woody Guthrie was of Welsh extraction - that isn't made clear in the interview.
@4:45 what piece is he referencing here?
Once I get my disability set through the VA, come hell or Highwater, I am traveling the United States to do this. I don’t care if I ever make a dime doing it.
Isaac, do it. Seriously do it

To record?
@kennethnick3213 yessir and now that's what I do. I keep in contact with a few people at the library of Congress.
