Studs Terkel Reader | The Studs Terkel Interviews | P.S.
Throughout the second half of the twentieth century, Studs Terkel hosted a legendary daily radio show in Chicago, presenting listeners with his inimitable take on an eclectic range of music, from classical, opera, and jazz to gospel, blues, folk, and rock. And They All Sang is nothing less than âa tribute to musicâs universality and powerâ (Philadelphia Inquirer), featuring more than forty of Terkelâs unforgettable conversations with some of the greatest musicians of the past centuryâincluding Louis Armstrong, Leonard Bernstein, Big Bill Broonzy, Bob Dylan, Dizzy Gillespie, Mahalia Jackson, Janis Joplin, Rosa Raisa, Pete Seeger, and many others.
As the esteemed music critic Anthony DeCurtis wrote in the Chicago Tribune, âthe terms âinterviewâ or âoral historyâ donât begin to do justice to what Terkel achieves in these conversations, which are at once wildly ambitious and as casual as can be.â Whether discussing Enrico Carusoâs nervousness on stage with opera diva Edith Mason or the Beatlesâ 1966 encounter in London with revered Indian sitar player Ravi Shankar, âTerkelâs singular gift for bringing his subjects to life in their own words should strike a chord with any music fan old enough to have replaced a worn-out record needleâ (The New York Times).
