Hoffman refers to his late father's record collection as "wisdom between the grooves." Great piece for Father's Day. This piece is a multi-generational passing down of history in the form of music. We get to listen to the touching and entertaining conversation between Hoffman and his young son as they go through Hoffman's father's record collection. Lots of music. It's also interesting to listen to Hoffman's six year old son describe a record player. It's disconcerting, though, to hear about record players being relegated to the status of historical artifacts! Great piece. Enjoyed it very much. Your listeners will too.
