Folks, I recently gave my sweetie a blast from the past by wining a copy ofTubby The Tuba, the version narrated by Victor Jory on the Cosmo label, offof dire old ebay. I had never heard this one before, and was immediatelystruck by how similar Jory's narrative style was to that of Dwight Fiske.I was a bit young when those artists were working, and wouldn't besurprised to learn that many other actors plied the same tools of thetrade: lots of shifts between loud/soft, fast/slow, all for dramatic orhumorous effect.I couldn''t help but be surprised that these very different types ofrecord, one for kids, the other for adults, featured such similar delivery.Best,Rod_______________________________________________78-L mailing list78-L at klickitat.78online.comhttp://klickitat.78online.com/mailman/listinfo/78-l
