content: CDR copy--FW-ASCH-7RR-2288 contains a Read-In for Peace in Vietnam, recorded at Town Hall, New York City. Various poets and a few prominent actors read a variety of selections, both prose and poetry often written by the the reader, relating directly or indirectly to the effort to end the war. The Read-In was produced by the Committee of the Professions. Stanley Kauffman was the "Chairman" of the event. The recording was copyrighted by Broadside Records in 1967 - presumably the year of the event. That same year, the complete recording was issued as a Broadsides commercial recording, entitled "The Original Read-In for Peace in Vietnam" (BR 452). (Broadsides was closely linked to Folkways.) The recording is now available from Smithsonian Folkways (FW09752). See the other sheets for a list of tracks and their durations.
