Review of Lost & Found Sound and Beyond: Hour Two

From Francis Ford Coppola clearly reading from a script to the wonders of answering machines -- English real estate agents in the San Fernando Valley!! -- to Jay Allison's classic wrap-up for a thing that simply will not lay down and sleep, this is wonderful stuff. L&F Sound was brilliant in its conception; it proved to be genial at its birth. No doubt Harvard has already set aside scholarship monies to see it through college.
Whether offered as an entire hour or as a series of short bits, L&F Sound was a fabulous enterprise. PDs: celebrate this stuff with your listeners.
