Jeff,
There's another program we should be on the lookout for as well. A radio show done live from CITIZEN KANE's San Francisco premiere in 1941. I heard it at Lilly, and it would have made a great extra on the KANE DVD (The recent SNOW WHITE DVD, for example, had 3 vintage radio programs from that film's various premieres). It has an interview with Dorothy Cumingore, several critics being interviewed about why the film is so special, and finally, a brief interview with Welles himself. Welles says watching himself and hearing his voice onscreen "gives him the creeps".

It's a great program, unfortunately with some sound damage during the critics interviews. Maybe a complete version exists out there somewhere.

leonard maltin's radio documentary on welles, appeared in threater of the imagination.
the home front radio series about wwII 3 or 4 hrs long
audio book: kafka's the trial 8-hs long.
audio book hernry miller's tropic of cancer. about 4 hrs long. i'm not sure if it's abridged, i've never read the book. i heard some one say once that miller used the word 'cunt' in tropic of cancer too many times, and 'cunt' is nowhere in the audio tapes. but also this person might have been talking out of his butt. does any body know if the word "cunt" appears in the book tropic of cancer? well, abridged or not tropic of cancer on audio tape is nothing short of brilliant. like a playground for an intellectual mind to romp.

issac denizen's babbette's feast, and sorrow acre. babbette's feast is brilliant, and does not have an american type resolutionary ending. very cool.

Thanks, I've used Jerry's service before. Unfortunately, he doesn't have any of the Almanac shows I need. He does have a few other shows I need, but I was hoping to trade for them before ordering.

[Terry]

Jeff, I have one of the Fifth War Loan Drive episodes your are seeking. Send message, happy to swap.

[Knowles Noel Shane]

Hey Jeff, I realize this is an old thread, and I know we did some trading earlier, but see if you still need any of these (and I can even send CDs this time):

3-3-46 Fred Allen
11-5-44 Chase and Sanborn
8-14-45 Command Performance (90 minute version)

Though you've probably found them years ago.
