This piece consists mostly of narration by the producer. For me, the piece drags quite a bit. I think it’s too long, and it lost me when an entire three minute recording of a folk song was played in the middle of the piece.. The production is amateurish, with microphone noise present, and the sound of a tape machine being turned on and off. While the material is engaging, the piece needs some serious editing.
