1952 Cook Laboratories 1270 'Rail Dynamics' Sounds of our Times; 33 RPM 12" LP Record with Blue translucent vinyl
FOR PEOPLE WHO LIVE or have lived by the side of a track, Sounds of our Times #1270 may be a nightmare. But for most of us,—for us who live in a place where only the east wind sends the sounds of the railroad reaching out over the wet foggy night, this record will be a thing of nostalgia, moving within us the strange restlessness of wanderlust. RECORDED ON RAINY NIGHTS during the fall of 1950 near Peekskill, N.Y. station, #1270 holds the sounds of most types of engines used by the great New York Central. TECHNICALLY, the transient content of steam, rails, trucks and couplings are a challenge to any reproducing system. The acoustic perspective of trains that rush on and past into the distance is a new experience, for it is a rare record which brings you the dynamic sound of a dynamic moving object.
