Title

[Duplicate of Yakutat and Cordova I, Tlingit and Eyak recordings by Robert Austerlitz]

Description:

DUPE 3 3/4 speed of EY2 ANLC6357

This tape is marked "DUP. 8/61 - Yakutat and Cordova I, Tlingit song and transl. (Yak); Cordova; Cordova 2,3,4 con't on tape 2.

This is a duplicate of recordings made by Robert Austerlitz. Cordova 2, 3, 4 appear to be dubs of tapes EY2 (ANLC6357), EY3 (ANLC6358), EY4 (ANLC6359). However, the track labeled "Cordova" may well be a dub of EY1, the original recording of which is missing. This is included here as ANLC2003-02-EY1-19610828. It is dated Aug 28, 1961 and was recorded in the Cordova Bar.

The file ANLC2003-01.wav is the Tlingit recording.
