    Did you record this originally on Cassette? It's running way to fast!

    I have just uploaded a response to your video in the correct speed. Direct from the VOA archives. The way Mr. Conover is meant to sound. Deep and paused!

  • Ohhh yes I do remember. Every evening at 11:00PM (Leningrad's time) I was glued to the radio receiver (19 m, 25m, 31m on short wave scale) to enjoy the velvet voice of my teacher Willie. G-d bless his soul...
