Description:
Anthropological examination of the life and social customs among the current inhabitants of Topanga Canyon, a secluded suburb of Los Angeles, California. The documentary is on Topanga as it existed at the time of recording, ambient noise and all. The music is mostly by Ba-Ca-Da, a Topanga music group. Produced by Clare Loeb and Phil Twitchell. Engineered by Ron Garson. The audio quality of this recording is mostly pretty poor.

First level cataloging notes:
Part b-two copies? or should it be part C? - Jolene, if you left this note, I think from looking at the boxes that part 3 is really a part 3. All of the boxes say they're a part of 3 parts, so that's a good indicator, plus it has a different duration than part B.
Technical comments: Almost entirely mixed with music. KDAY bleed has been OK'd by Red Mountain - C.L.

Audio file QC (Pass One) notes:
20 seconds of uneven test tone at top.
Recording begins with experimental audio theatre-sounding stuff. "Topanga presents Topanga." Ron Garson, engineer.
Hum, hiss, low levels. Audio quality is inconsistent, but some of it may be deliberate.
Includes pre-recorded music. No outro.
