Comment:

The Fourth in the continuing series of tapes culled exclusively from my vinyl library. This one has been tied together with exceprts from the Original 1938 Columbia Radio Broadcast of "The War of the Worlds" featuring Orson Welles. While the entire tape deosn't follow the story, I tried to follow the excerpts with appropriate tracks. Cheers!

Cool concept - it would have been tight if you could figure out a way to follow the story with the music - but it'd be tough for me to think up enought good music to flow with War of the Worlds. What I know - I dig!
