1. Tape label incorrectly cites record as "Sound reviews - Music". Date given as 16 July 1979 most likely corresponds to said "Sound reviews". Actual date of interview with Lair occurred in the summer of 1979 or 1980.~2. Phone-call interruptions and other distractions throughout recording.~3. Recording of interview continues on Side 2.~4. Recording ends prior to formal completion of interview. Unknown portion of interview is missing. Based on duration of other interviews in this series, length of segment missing is likely minor.~5. Interview was published in The Craftsman's Way: Canadian Expressions, Toronto: University of Toronto Press, c1981.
