THE TELL-TALE HEART

by Edgar Allan Poe ; developed by Rocket Chair Media ; read by A Full Cast ‧ RELEASE DATE: Jan. 22, 2000

Amazon

The Mystery Theatre series collects several chilling tales originally broadcast in the 1960s and presents them in four-packs of fear. This first volume features well-loved classic tales, as well as some lesser-known pieces. The first cassette treats mystery lovers to "The Tell-Tale Heart," told as frighteningly as it ever was in any dank parlor or at any camp fire. "The Kitchen Table" gives domesticity an ancient twist. The performances here seem slightly overdone, but the chill of the story is not lost. On the second cassette, the British double-header (including a Sherlock Holmes story) balances the production like a mystery travelogue.

    WHEN THE LEGENDS DIE

    by Hal rland ; read by Norman Dietz ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

    In this fascinating coming-of-age portrait, Thomas Black Bull's journey from the child, Bear's Brother, to the fearsome rodeo rider, Killer Tom Black, is painted with compassion and insight. Forced to learn the White Man's ways, Tom reaches adulthood consumed by rage. Read with great vigor by Norman Dietz, the recording bursts with the energy of rodeo circuit and transports the listener to the southwest. The accurate portrayal of Tom's Ute ancestry and way of life, the sorrow and frustration of losing his heritage, and his angry retaliation at the world make this an excellent listening choice for adults and teenagers. It would also be a wonderful addition to high school units on the Native American experience.

      RUBBER LEGS AND WHITE TAIL-HAIRS

      by Patrick F. McManus ; read by George S. Irving ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

      George S. Irving adopts Patrick McManus's characters with gusto. Sit back and listen to yarn after yarn. Irving relishes each story, whether it's fishing stories, such as "Claw of the Sea-Puss" or "To Filet or Not to Filet," or the escapades with McManus's wary but vulnerable neighbors. Irving has the jocular chuckle down pat, and the low comedy satire comes off without a hitch. Listeners can imagine Irving tipping back a chair at the country store swapping lies with cronies and entertaining any comers with these hilarious tales. His repertoire of more than eight collections of McManus stories encourages this kind of ownership!
