I found this recorded acetate at a thrift store in Florida several years ago-- reminds me of the audio equivalent of found vintage photos. It's a kind of weird, awkward exchange, apparently from a local TV show (note how the girl gives her complete name/address/phone number-- something nobody would do today, and note the weird giggle and uncomfortable silence when she mentions how her sister is dead.) I had several of these kinds of mystery acetates in my record collection (none as interesting as this one), and recently decided to just get rid of them all (sold to a collector in Illinois, who may be posting them on WFMU's blog in the near future-- stay tuned.)
