I very much enjoy the "Dom Tuffy" series (though I highly recommend all of Mr. Doorbell's recordings-- his voice is pleasing and hearing how it has changed over his life is amusing, if nothing else).
The August, 2001 tapes in Nantes, Quebec are especially poignant to me. I grew up in a rural small town that had the analog phone switch replaced with a digital switch (a DMS-10) in the late 1980's. A couple of other little towns around still had analog switches into the early 90's. I "played around" with them a little bit but really didn't understand the technology. Now I wish I'd had more time with them.
