Voice of the Sea

Emory Cook
Voice of the Sea From sea to shining sea, this collage of ocean sounds was recorded along the Atlantic coast (Gloucester, Massachusetts to Mt. Desert Island, Maine) and the Pacific coast (Mazatlan, Mexico). Listen to the water as it laps against a pebbly beach or rages against rocky cliffs. Hear tug boats, ferry boats, fishing boats and the USS Columbus navigate the waters. This hi-fi recording, made during a height of fascination with new recording technologies, comes guaranteed with foghorn accents and a whistle from the Queen Mary.
