More great oral history from Studs Terkel

Nice collection of parts of interviews of some greats from the opera and jaz worlds. Better than the original interviews in one respect -- the subjects get to talk more than the interviewer. I loved Stud's show on WFMT, but sometimes...

A marvelous Book

This book is wonderful and so full of character. Anyone old enough to remember Studs Terkel and His radio program will love this book, and if you have never heard of him you will enjoy getting to know his unique outlook on life. The interviews are a rich and colorful history of the music of the 20th century and well worth the price of admission.

Studs Terkel...

Studs Terkel is a great writer/interviewer. He knows that the best stories don't come from the higher-ups in the country but from everyday working class people. I highly recommend this book.

king of the oral

There's no one better than Studs. He is the master of the genre, which really is an amazing art form.
