Listen "Bay View Tower #6, September 18, 1948"
Episode Synopsis
This episode of Living with Steam features recordings John M. Prophet III made in the late evening (and early morning) of September 18 (19), 1948 at BV Tower in Blasdell, NY. John made a total of 19 recordings at this interlocking tower and this is one he labeled “#6.”
While the recordings contained on this spool of wire are not spectacular by any means… in fact, the quality of the audio is pretty lousy compared to his other recordings… they’re included here as part of John’s total output simply for the fact that the difficulty he sometimes had using the wire recorder helps one to further appreciate his work.
