Arrangement

The Sound Recordings accession (3560-033) was created in 2007 through a merger of four separate accessions: Sound disc recordings, 1955-1967 (acc 3560-015); Audiotapes, 1957-1982 (acc 3560-017); Florida campaign and Laszlo Pal audiotapes, ca. 1970-1987 (acc 3560-023); and Audio Recordings from the Milo Ryan Phonoarchives, 1944-1945 (acc 3560-024). The processor devised the basic organization scheme for the collection in consultation with the Pacific Northwest Curator and organized the items chronologically within the requisite component groups. The filing units have been divided according to Senator Jackson's House of Representatives and Senate activities, and include a Posthumous subseries. This arrangement is followed by a Campaign Materials subseries, which highlights Senator Jackson's Senatorial and Presidential campaigns and is broken down by year.

The sound recordings accession has been arranged into 12 series:

  • House of Representatives, 1940-1952
  • Senate, 1953-1958
  • Senate, 1959-1964
  • Senate, 1965-1970
  • Senate, 1971-1976
  • Senate, 1977-1982
  • Senate, 1983
  • Posthumous, 1984-1987
  • 1972 Senatorial
  • 1972 Presidential
  • 1976 Presidential
  • 1982 Senatorial

Scope and Content

This accession is comprised of sound recordings made over the course of Senator Jackson's legislative career, and documents speeches, interviews, question-and-answer sessions, political events, and committee hearings, as well as Senatorial and Presidential campaigns. The recordings include radio press releases, campaign radio spots, political endorsements, press interviews, commercial news broadcasts, evangelical sermons, and recorded correspondence. Among the earliest recordings present is a speech Congressman Jackson delivered in Washington, D.C., in June 1945, reporting on what he witnessed at the Buchenwald concentration camps, which he had just visited as part of a Congressional delegation, at the invitation of General Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Senator Jackson's appearances on commercial and local news broadcasts, such as Face the Nation, Meet the Press, The Capitol Cloakroom , and The Leading Question are included and highlight various political topics.

Highlights of the House of Representatives and Senate series include: Senator Jackson's 1956 speech nominating Senator Warren G. Magnuson for President of the United States, at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois; the visit of Soviet Union General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev to Washington, D.C.; Strategic Arms Limitations Talks (SALT) hearings; and a radio debate between Senator Jackson and Representative John R. Pillion on statehood for Alaska and Hawaii.

A Posthumous series is composed of the sync sound reels created in conjunction with a film, SCOOP, and brings together interviews with politicians and constituents after Senator Jackson's death in 1983. Bill Van Ness, Ben Wattenburg, George Will, Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Representative Al Swift, Representative Tom Foley, and Warren G. Magnuson are among those interviewed in this series.

Within the Campaign Materials series, the Florida campaign and Laszlo Pal sound tape reels document Senator Jackson during his 1972 Presidential campaign, and complement commercials and campaign films in the Moving Images accession (3560-032). Included in this series are radio commercials paid for by various Jackson for President committees in Florida, Wisconsin, Nebraska, and Washington State; Senator Jackson's announcement of candidacy for the Presidential nomination; an interview with Mrs. Helen Hardin Jackson during a campaign stop in Eau Clair, Wisconsin; and political endorsements from Senators Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Hubert H. Humphrey, and Sam Ervin. Sync sound reels of the 1972 Presidential campaign in Florida and Wisconsin document press conferences as well as Senator Jackson's meetings with college students and faculty, brewery workers, and residents of a nursing home. Completing the series are statements by Senator Jackson's 1982 Senatorial campaign opponents, Doug Jewett, Larry Penberthy, and King Lysen. A press conference on radioactive waste documents Dr. Ruth Weiner's attack on Republican opponent Doug Jewett and his campaign tactics; a portion of this press conference was included in a radio press release during Senator Jackson's 1982 Senatorial campaign, and is contained in the Senate series.

Processing Info

During the course of processing the sound recordings, each of the 121 original sound tape reels and 118 sound cassettes was assigned an identifying number generated from the accession numbers that were originally assigned to each piece, when the collection was initially processed in the 1980s. These original, root accession numbers have been retained for the originals, the digital audio masters, and the listening copies. Each item number contains the corresponding root accession number (3560_15, 3560_17, 3560_17a, 3560_23, or 3560_26) plus an extension from the root number which indicates the component part of the original sound recording. (Accession 3560-17 was broken into two accessions with an alphabetic cutter, resulting in 3560_17 and 3560_17a, because the materials were originally numbered in a parallel manner, based on format.) One sound cassette, 3560_26_734, was not transferred and exists only in its original form.

The original sound recordings, composed of ¼-inch sound tape reels and audiocassettes, were transferred to digital between November 2006 and February 2007. Six ¼-inch sound tape reels housed in accession 3560-015 (items 3560_15_1 to 3560_15_6) were transferred from preservation discs, as these were the only sound recordings from this accession available for migration. High-resolution preservation (96 bit, 24 kHz) and low-resolution (44.1 bit, 16 kHz) data files were created in Broadcast Wav Format (BWF) Standard RIFF information is embedded in each of the BWF files and includes the following: equipment used for playback; software used for migration; duplicating speed; duration; bit-depth; sampling rate; number of channels; audio format of originals; if materials are back-coated; preservation and conservation treatments of materials.

Listening copies (.cda) of all audio recordings were created on CD and are available for public use in the Special Collections division main reading room. Low-resolution (44.1 bit, 16 kHz) data files were also created on CD (.wav), but are stored separately and are not available for public use. In addition, all of the BWF files were transferred to DSpace, for archival storage purposes, between April and June 2007. At this time, these files are not intended to be accessed remotely by the general public.
