Title: Skating Lessons with Dick Button
Post by: Isk8NYC on February 09, 2011, 08:32:02 AM
This is just an oddity that I found on the web:

Skating Lessons with Dick Button @ Wollman Rink in Central Park

Part 1: http://sk8info.net/sk8lesson/db/01.wma
Part 2: http://sk8info.net/sk8lesson/db/02.wma

It's classic Button - "I have on a complicated, wireless microphone..."

Most of his advice is still true today.

Is it just audio?

Yes, just audio.  They're in Windows Media Audio (WMA) format.

It sounds like it was originally a RECORD, like an LP or a 45. 
You can hear the scratches and bumps.
