Side B: Antone explains how most blues musicians in the present day must reside in the rock music industry to be successful. He explains that he is busy with teaching students the history and musical influence of blues and rock & roll. The book he is writing also discusses how blues music contributed to rock & roll. He briefly mentions politics and his past legal problems, but expresses that he wants to move on. At the end of the interview, he gives advice to people about going to school rather than pursuing music.

In the 1978 interview, conducted by History faculty members Merry FitzPatrick and Ronald C. Brown, Dr. Henrietta "Retta" Murphy talks about her experiences at Southwest Texas State, from her arrival in 1919 when the school was still a Normal College, through her retirement in 1956.  She relates stories about President “Prexy” Evans, President Flowers, Lyndon Johnson, and mentions SWT professors H.M. Greene, James Taylor, Emmie Craddock, Alfred Nolle, and Betty Kissler among others. She also talks about her beliefs about education and teaching and offers examples from her years of teaching college students.  The interviewers and Dr. Murphy had a collegial relationship and they laughed through much of the interview.
