This man made me loving America and her Voice for Freedom - "The Jazz Hour" ! This beautiful Country is gone now, gone forever.

Don't worry. We will bring the USA back and remove all the undesirables back to their continent of origin.

What a sweet gig that must have been for Willis Conover at the VOA.

I listened to a lot of Willis on VOA, via shortwave. Such a delight to see him in his younger days, battling the world with great jazz. Conover did the world a wonderful service, for decades.

Thanks for posting this! Too few relics of W Conover left on the Web, unfortunately.

That's great. I think I'd have asked them to say something in "Special English".

Жалко. Много жалко, че сред многото милиони клипове качени в 'You tube" има толкова малко автентични записи с гласът на Уилис Коновър A pity. A pity that among the many millions of videos uploaded in 'You tube" there are so few authentic voice recordings of Willis Conover
