<Cedar Falls Municipal Band>

Below are links to two MP3 files which you can listen to. Herb Hake, cartoonist and one of the local pioneers of public radio,
interviewed Leo and Les Hughes, sons of the "Father of the Cedar Falls Band," G. W. Hughes, on 5/9/1964. The interview was
recorded on reel to reel tape, transferred later to CDs and is now available in MP3 format. The original was on two reels of
tape so there two files.

Part 1: ~ 32 minutes
Part 2: ~ 12 minutes
