Easter Stories by Dolores Hydock and Rev. Robert B. Jones

from The Apple Seed

A couple stories for Easter week, both recorded live in the Apple Seed Studio. (1:30) Alabama-based storyteller Dolores Hydock, about an early job she had working at a chocolate Easter Bunny factory. If she was expecting Lucille Ball-style chocolate factory hijinks, that was not exactly what she got. (19:48) The Reverend Robert B. Jones shares the story of blues musician Blind Willie Johnson and how his recording of the song "Dark Was the Night," a haunting lament about Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane, came to be sent off into space on the Voyager Golden Record. 00:00:00 - Introduction 00:01:34 - "Easter Eyes" by Dolores Hydock 00:19:54 - "Dark Was the Night" by Reverend Robert B.
