° “...something I recorded in 2006 as a spoken piece for a CD that was surprise 50th birthday present for Richard Youngs that his wife organized, his friends recording pieces for his birthday. Richard is a musician but also a librarian; he did a great piece where he read aloud the destinations on 170 train tickets, so, as a tribute, I read aloud 65 recent titles I’d taken out of the library.”
