ReplyDeleteThis is an impressive program!
Orson Wells had become a parody of himself at this point, but he's still impressive.
DeleteEver since I was a kid and got introduced to OTR, I've always associated Orson Welles with War Of The Worlds and later, whatever that show he did (I believe) for the BBC, The Many Lives Of Harry Lime, or whatever it was called. Even though he had a smaller part in the former, I still associate him more with that show and am not a huge fan of the latter, but one of our stations back home, used to play it once a week, late at night, when I was a kid. As I told Buster earlier, haven't gotten any of these, yet, but still may do and am still commenting LOL. Thanks, love and praying for y'all.

Hi Josh - Welles played Harry Lime in the film "The Third Man," a favorite of mine. He was the driving force behind "War of the Worlds." He's best known in movie circles for "Citizen Kane," which once was considered the best film ever made (not by me).
DeleteRoger on that, thanks for the info. For some reason, maybe it's the British accent, I remember looking up Alexander Scorby (sp), one day, having heard him reading the King James Bible, for years. When I looked him up, I found out lots of other things he did and even watched a short clip of a movie he was in (can't remember what it was). Lemme tellya, it was strange to hear him in that part, whatever it was LOL. On Welles taking a major part in WOTW, reckon he did, now that I think of it, played a bigger on-stage role than I thought, been a while since I've heard the show. I believe it was a Campbell's Playhouse, the same show where Lionel Barimore (sp) played Scruge, to bring it back into Christmas LOL. Rambling, so, 'til next, love and praying for y'all.

I just remember him from an episode of Moonlighting he introduced not long before his death. And Cybil Shepherd talked about him a bit in her autobiography.
DeleteAlexander Scourby narrated a Christmas LP, "The Coming of Christ," which I have somewhere.
DeleteOh, that's where I know the name. It's coming, I'm sharing it later this season. :)
DeleteOr maybe I already did...

Buster and Ernie, that he did. Yeah, Ernie, I got it when you shared it, And, Buster, I've got a lot of records, tapes, etc, somewhere, LOL, love and praying for y'all.

Ernie, your output has been unbelievable in your 20th year of sharing- thank you for bringing this series all day!
ReplyDeleteI like to share, what can I say? :)
DeleteOrson Welles will always be Lew Lord from the Muppet Movie to me!
ReplyDeleteWhich was actually released the same year as this album. Maybe he was riding that wave.
DeleteMaybe...
DeleteLucky number thirteen! I think you might be being facetious here, maybe not?
ReplyDeleteAnyway.over all this is a good album, but...
Roger and group were still good on this one. I suppect they will be on all these albums they are associated with.
Orsen poor Orsen, while you have a wonderful voice, you just did not do enough for me.
I love Orsen in his OTR series Black Museum and Harry Lime, both I have listed to twice and twice will come around, but other than this Orsen has only been above average in my listening book.
So, sorry Salvation Army and Roger, Orsen can only garnered an 8+
Orson is a bit pompous here, isn't he?
Deletewell i have heard War of the Worlds, his version of Scooge, I remember seeing his 2 famous films, but he just never did much for me.
DeleteBut those 2 OTR did. You would not care for the Black Museam I am sure, but the Harry Lime series was a pre Harry Lime character before the movie version. So, these really were nice listening too while working.
Well Ernie, I had to travel outside of Berlin by train, which lasts an hour, so I thought I would give this share another listen. The train was not very full, so...
DeleteI am sure glad I did. This is one of the best albums the Salvation Army put it.
It is very thought provoking and is reflective listening.
On second thought, Orson was "the perfect" choice for the narration of these passages. A top notch production all around.
So, my new rating is a 10 minus. It jumps right into my Salvation Army Favorites folder. Maybe 5th place out of 5 entries.
As I think I've said before, the time, place and general atmosphere contribute a huge portion of the listening experience. Just think how many people sat up and paid attention to The Beatles when they saw them on Ed Sullivan, how many of them would have paid attention if they heard it playing as background music in the grocery store? It's the presentation!
