One reel to reel recording.
Boltin served as emcee. Rain lived in Gainesville. Smith was from Fort Myers. Daniels and Webb were both from Jacksonville. Once called the 'Woody Guthrie of Vietnam,' Pham Duy wrote over 1000 songs. Born in Ha Noi in 1921, he trained in Paris in the 1940s. A part of the anti-French resistance, Pham Duy traveled Vietnam learning folk songs, and supporting regime change. In Spring 1966, as part of a cultural exchange program with the US, the 46 year old Saigon resident toured the United States. By the 1980s, Duy resided in California, still writing and performing. An image of him can be found in S 1578, box 3, folder 36.
The Vietnamese Folk Song performed by Pham Duy is available on the Asian
Music page. |
Folklife Database
Search this database for descriptions of photographs and audio recordings from
the Florida Folklife Collection available at the State Archives of Florida. Approximately
46,000 photographic images and approximately 5,000 audio recordings are cataloged.
Contact the Archives to order images and recordings.
Because many of the original recordings are in a fragile condition, patrons
will only be permitted to use digital copies of those recordings. However,
the digitization project is still in progress, and therefore some recordings
may not yet be available. Please contact
us ahead of time to ensure availability.
