Review of Street Sounds

A lovely piece about street music in Bart stations in the Bay Area. I love the ambience and the recordings of people singing and playing. The comments are not as effective though as the musicians describing their music and then playing. The first musician and the ltter part with the guitarist and singer is the best cut. I'd say cut some of the comments in the middle and get the piece down to five minutes and get to the middle part faster....to that singer/guitarist. That's just great tape. With a proper lead any station in any city with street musicians could use this piece in local shows.
