Book Reviews of Best of NPR's Lost and Found Sound Vol. 1

Book Review: Dazzling
Summary: 5 Stars

From beginning to finish
I was struck by its simplicity and familiarity.
Heartbreaking voice of a little girl who will not live to reach adulthood.

The everyday neighborhood sounds brought back my own childhood.
The song by the 'coal girl' incredibly beautiful.
The role cigar workers played in employment improvements by having been read to while working by the literate and knowledgeable among them. Well done. A masterpiece.

I love this cassette and would not part with it for any price.
I found it in a local 'Dollar' Store.
I've gone online only looking for Volume two?

Summary of Best of NPR's Lost and Found Sound Vol. 1

On January 1, 1999, All Things Considered aired the first in a series of richly layered stories that trace the soundtrack of the 20th century. Broadcast weekly through 1999, continuing monthly through 2000, Lost & Found Sound chronicles, reflects, and celebrates the human experience in rare recordings and "sonic snapshots" submitted by listeners. Blending the historic with the everyday, the monumental with the personal, this is evocative, haunting, eclectic listening-endangered sounds, shifting accents, vanishing voices, home recordings, and audio artifacts that reveal a sense of place and mark the passage of time.
