Hoot Audio Recordings
Dick Barker meticulously recorded hootenannies between January 31, 1994, and August 12, 1996. Dick’s cassette tapes were converted to .mp3 digital files primarily by Adrienne Ward with help from Peter Ward. The mp3 digital file for each hoot has been edited by Peter Ward primarily to trim the beginning and end, to remove the typically 10-minute break approximately 1.5 hours from the beginning of each hoot, and to remove sounds or quiet periods associated with changing the 2 or 3 tapes during each hoot. Periods of unexplained noise have been spotted on some tapes and removed. The repeat of the description of the three hoot traditions, which are described at the beginning of each hoot, have been removed at the end of most 10-minute breaks. A very small number of songs end abruptly when at the end of a cassette tape. A few introductions were lost during tape changes. But the quality, standardization, and completeness of nearly all mp3 files is testimony to the care and meticulousness of Dick Barker who carefully recorded 256 audio cassette tapes during 99 hootenannies!
