Listen to Alistair Cooke on the assassination of John Lennon
Corrections: Alistair not Alastair (nor Alasdhair). Letter from America was a quarter of an hour, not half.
Very interesting piece. Well done, Rob, and also for standing up to the goons over your camera, if unsuccessfully.
ReplyDeleteI just love that building and your shot of it, as I said on your photo blog.
ReplyDeleteTo Americans, Alistair Cooke was best known and loved as the host of "Masterpiece Theatre."
I've never heard those pieces but i have heard old Goon Show recordings and they were very important to my humor development.
ReplyDeleteExcellent account of a great day. Would recommend the tours and could happily spend a lot longer there looking around. We should try again and break the Stasi lines.
