My name is Jack Stanley, I have studied history for many years. This blog is about history in a more raw view, not over done. I often use original materials to bring a historic event or story to life or an interview I may have done with the person mentioned. If you cook a vegetable too long it loses much. The same can be said of many histories. They are the history of the history written before it. Over done history. THIS IS HISTORY IN THE RAW. Comments send to phonograph78@hotmail.com

Meeting and recording Larry Hagman in California in 2003
I was in California to do a talk and show. It was while I was there that the group I came to speak for had set it up for me to record Larry Hagman. He is an interesting man, who lives in a remarkable home with his wife. By the way the home was designed by his wife. It was so huge! They were very nice to me and we made a few recordings. He signed this picture for me while I was there.
His mother was Mary Martin and he of course was in many TV shows. Today many people remember him as JR from Dallas. He was also in I dream of Jeannie.
We spent some time together on at his home. We talked about the TV shows he was in and his mother. His career from its beginnings and of course the politicians. It was at this time that there was war brewing over a new Governor for California and the sitting Governor was kicked out...He had quite a bit to say about all of that......
It was an interesting experience.
