Speech Project Album is to be featured in an upcoming new book by Graham Smith (Professor at The School of History, Classics and Archaeology at Newcastle University). The book is on ‘public oral history’ and looks at the uses and misuses of oral history across a range of media. Graham informs me that it will be featured in a chapter alongside Steve Reich’s Come Out and Different Trains, as well as Terkel’s Working, Cipullo's Glory Denied and Little’s Soldiers Songs. The chapter will explore why memory, music and oral history fit so well together. Looking forward to it
