Bob Nelson was in the control room of KCTS-TV when the first show of Ballads and Books was broadcast. He recorded five of the six shows of this series. Listen now to the live recording of Ivar Haglund and James Stevens as they speak of earlier days. We are thrilled that this recording survived for 50 years.
