Scope and Contents

From the Series: The audio recordings consist of conversations, poetry, and songs recorded at home and live at preforming venues. There are original songs, poetry, and covers performed by Kell Robertson. Most of the conversations are between Robertson and Kendall McCook, however, when there are others present they participate as well. Conversations range in subjects such as current and historical events (local and worldwide), thoughts on education, and reminiscing about their youth. Recordings created for McCook consist of musical compilations and poetry by Robertson and musicians and poets he admired/respected, as well as stories of Robertson's life. Most recordings are good quality.
