We found a treasure when you joined us. Keep up the good work and keep posting, you find good stuff.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rick
Interesting to compare the originals with the new reading. Stewart's voice is more like Priestley's than I had expected. Thanks for putting these up, James.
These are very well done, aren't they? Stewart does well at striking a balance between giving a reading and acting the part of a 1940s commentator. (I'm assuming that Priestley's own broadcasts weren't preserved, like so many things from that era.)
