[Srsells1 at aol.com]

This was posted on 78-L today by the Producer/Director's (proud)  father, 
Mike Biel. This was Leah Biel's Master's thesis. The premiere is at ARSC  
Conference next Saturday but he shared a preview. I'm in there as well as many  
folks you make know the names of but have never seen.
 
I think you all enjoy the samples here! I'll let Mike explain  it.

"For The Record", my daughter Leah's documentary on record  collectors,
will be given its world premiere next Saturday May 30 at ARSC  and
thereafter will be available on DVD, but right now you can see a  preview
of segments on YouTube.

First is the Roll Call of Collectors,  the segment of the closing credits
where the collectors who are profiled  state their names. You will hear
some familiar names -- and will now have the  faces and voices to place
with them.

Next  is a segment that discusses places where collectors used to meet --
The  Record Research Associates, better known as "The Syndicate" -- and
where they  now meet on the web -- the 78-L.

Then  comes a segment about another place where collectors and
collections meet --  The Association for Recorded Sound Collections.

And  lastly, for now, is a segment featurinig Bill Bragg of 
YesterdayUSA.com , a  long established nostalgia network where I
broadcast on Sunday nights at  11:30 PM Eastern time. Bill is also known
as the voice of Big Tex, the very  tall greeter at the Texas State Fair. 
Bill tells a story about how a  recording resurrected a woman's long dead
father.

I  cannot cite the usual disclaimers because I have a particular interest
in  this program as the proud papa and one of the interview subjects, but
I hope  you don't mind.
