Description:
Jazz singer Betty Carter (1930-1998) discusses her life, her music, and the changes in jazz since the 1950's. Interviewed by Ed Love for the series R.P.M. She is is introduced as the foremost black woman jazz artist of the time. Interview includes background information about Carter. Carter then describes the differences in the way musicians work, modern music and individual style. She argues that radio stations should play more diverse music. (Year uncertain: Tape label says "1975", but WPFW wasn't founded until 1977. Betty mentions something happening "15 years ago at this point, '60 and '61, so it was likely recorded in 1976).

Audio file QC (Pass One) notes:
Distortion, hum, hiss. Interesting discussions on race, history, and music. Interesting about the date. I think it might actually have been recorded in 1976, because of two things: 1. Betty talks about something happening "15 years ago at this point, '60 and '61." 2. Ed says to wrap up the conversation, "Hopefully, that's what this station will be about." So it all seems like it was one of the very first broadcasts out of WPFW or maybe even recorded in hopes of the station going live. I would change the date to circa 1976.
