Actually, I have a tape of the lecture he gave at the Church of the

Crossroads. If the Archives doesn't have it I could loan it to then to

copy. I also have a tape of a lecture he gave at the farm on the Big

Island in 1975 (or '76?). The quality of the sound is terrible, but perhaps

the Archives has equipment for enhancing the signal.

 

Someone must have taped those lectures, but the CoC one is the only one

I've seen over the years. I think it also includes a lecture at the

University of Hawaii. And the Church of the Crosssroads lecture is

intersting because it has Goursundara's electric kirtan, wiht

Siddhasvarupananda Goswami singing lead, and Srila Prabhupada saying the

prema-dhvani at the end.

Sounds great. Archives, over to you.

 

(But whatever happened to other lectures and conversations? I particularly

remember one in the evening in the temple room.)

I only vaguely remember the kirtan at that church (though I clearly remember

the melody).

I think the Chirch of the Crossroads tape I have was one I borrowed from

you years ago. (I have it in a safe place, and I'll look at it tomorrow.)

We should get these circulating. Know which one I really wish I had? When

he visited in August 1970.

Hey! Alright! What's the next step? How can I get copies? (And perhaps

more significantly, how can the Archives get copies --- because they don't

seem to have them.)

At the Bhaktivedanta Archives we would very much like to obtain copies of

these tapes. The ideal for us is to get the original and then from the

original make DAT backup copies. If Kusha Mataji can send us the originals

she should make sure to first make copies so that if they are lost or

damaged in the mail or UPS etc. we still have something. We can return the

originals after making the DAT copies. Our equipment is able to remove some

of the recording defects. From the DAT masters we can then create the

masters for the tape ministry and the CD ministry if the quality is good

enough for general release. But even if they are very poor quality, we will

still have them transcribed for inclusion in the VedaBase so that devotees

can have access to the information on these tapes. Then if devotees need

copies of the audio we can retrieve them from the DAT masters.

Dear Prabhus,

 

Dandavats! Jayasrila Prabhupada!!! Digging through my tapes I came up with

a 120 minute tape dated May 9, 1972 at Church of the Crossroads and May 10,

1972, University of Hawaii- Kennedy Theater. Are these the tapes you are

looking for? Or do you have these?

 

Here are dates of other vintage original "Srila Prabhupada in Hawaii" tapes

not purchased from Golden Avatar, I found in my collection-

 

3-19-1969 Kaawa, Hawaii

3-21-1969 Kaawa, Hawaii

3-24-1969 Kaawa, Hawaii

3-28-1969 Kaawa, Hawaii

 

They are all 120 minute tapes, if you want them I will have to go buy 120

minute blanks to make copies.

 

Yours in the service of our beloved Srila Prabhupada,

Kusha devi dasi
