I see through the notes of the group that Walter is about to release a
frog CD? Do you have a good narrating voice mate? I have found with a
lot of disks available to the public that the narration can be bloody
awful, you get some lovely natural sounds then this voice spoils it,
being a Brit and used to the "plumb in the mouth" BBC voice, I
personally like this, listen to David Attenburgh for instance, he has a
good narrators voice, it makes all the difference, with respect to Lang,
he has some great CDs out yet I don't feel his voice does them justice
(I don't like my voice also, I had to get another Brit to record mine) I
often hear comments about this, you hear a melodic sound then the dorsal
tones of a cross between Dolly Parton & a sheep!!, just a thought, Walt,
does the wife still have her Aussie accent?
