There's a great article ion today's Wall Street Journal about the BBC's
audio archives of their Desert Island Discs series which goes back to the
1940s. Celebrities from music, art, government, royalty etc chose their 7
discs if they were stranded on an island. Over 1900 if these are available to
hear or download. Here is like to the WSJ article:http://on.wsj.com/1F5Oghb
And here is the direct link to the Database to search and listen. I found a
few surprizes. Search for Burl Ives (folk Singer) or Tom Jones the Welsh
Pop Singer.
