MY LUNCHES WITH ORSON audiobook

[Wellesnet]

There is an audiobook planned to go with the release of Henry Jagloms book MY LUNCHES WITH ORSON: CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN HENRY JAGLOM AND ORSON WELLES. Here is the Wellesnet Main Page writeup:

I think the audio book has been canceled. We should all send an email to MacMillian/Metropolitan to request that the audio book is released.

If the book continues to sell well, I have no doubt they will do the audiobook.

As posted elsewhgere, this really depends on the qulaity especially if Jaglom did his version of "Orson's Bag."

Some of the audio excerpts, like the one in the New York Times web site, had a lot of background noise. I wonder if the background noise can be removed digitally and Welles and Jaglam's voices can be enhanced digitally. This could make a better product. I still would want the raw, poor sound instead of nothing. MacMillian can distribute the tapes with a disclaimer that the sound quality is not good due to the source material. Hopefully someone at MacMillian will see the historical value of these tapes and release a digitally enhanced version of the tapes.
