COMMENTARY

1. Note gradual increase in quiet, change from juke box to quiet room ambience entering the bedroom.

2. Very quiet ambience after motorbike and before footsteps. Several sets of passing footsteps, then more of recordist walking. Very clear; different footpace rhythms.

4. Beginning of take, slurry footsteps, clearly recognizable as those of an old man.

6. Note cadence of voices here.

8-10. Not very interesting.
