Customer comments on this selection.
 Very difficult reading
This is a book of interviews and quotes from an eclectic DJ. While all the A list entertainers are here including Marian Anderson, Louis Armstrong, Mahalia Jackson, Bob Dylan, Janis Jopin and more this book is not interwoven with any coherence and too abstract. Since everyone will like at least someone quoted here it will have its fans, but I am having a horrible time getting through this book.
 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.
And They All Sang by Studs Terkel
Book received exactly as described (excellent condition) and in a prompt delivery time.
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.
