MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The broadcast moment of Hank Aaron's record breaking 715th home run, as called by announcer Milo Hamilton in 1974, has been chosen for preservation by the Library of Congress.
Every year, 25 recordings are saved for posterity.
This year's diverse list includes all of Franklin Roosevelt's presidential speeches, the song "Bohemian Rhapsody" from Queen, the hip hop album "Enter the Wu-Tang," and a New York radio station's recorded coverage of the 9/11 attacks.
