Posts from itdo in thread „Audio's Of John Wayne“

Have fun up there in the flats of the north! I remember there was only one shop selling movie stuff in Amsterdam and I got me a rare Fort Apache poster there. Two years or so back I visited the bridges that were so vital to operation Market-Garden in WWII but of course my main interest was where and how Richard Attenborough filmed the spots in "A Bridge Too Far". Anyway, a nice country with very nice people in it, hope you enjoy your stay!

I love to listen to audio-tapes as well. There are the lux-shows, his recreations of the parts played in Yellow Ribbon, Red River and so on (available on CD)
there is the Stagecoach Radio Show (available on LP),
there's his record "America, Why...", of course, and the soundtracks of "Alamo" and "Katie Elder" and "Island in the Sky" which use his voice.
I know the tapes of Dan Ford, John Ford's grandson, of the conversations he had with Wayne to write his book "Pappy" (about the length of a full day) are at a Government library, available to the public.
What other audio-tapes to you have, and can you tell where to get them?

Since you knew Chuck Roberson personally you probably read his account on his life as Wayne's double, "Fall Guy". I guess you could ask Harry Carey to get in contact with his family as they knew each other well. You'll find his homepage in the net (and there's a mail-address).
