Why This Record Matters
Francis Colburn was a Vermont painter, University of Vermont art professor, and celebrated storyteller. On this spoken-word record, he delivers a comic take on a graduation address, poking fun at grand commencement speeches through local Vermont humor. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="1"}
Collector Note
This 1977 US mono reissue is on Droll Yankees Inc., catalog DY-11, with “10-77 T” appearing in both supplied runouts. The DY-11 title first appeared in the label’s 1962 catalog, making this a later issue of Colburn’s Vermont graduation-address satire. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="2"}
