Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
A poem by Whitman may be whoops and hollers, or beating of drums, or the ebb of the tide singing to itself among the stones, or laments in the night or cries of ecstasy. Indeed, Whitman was the wind which blew poetry from its moorings in tradition and sent it into fresher waters; his poems celebrating the grandness of the human condition are cadenced for the voice and meant to be spoken aloud. In this recording drawn from the Caedmon archives, reader Ed Begley, Sr. performs selections from Whitman's lifelong work, Leaves of Grass.

This cd is a must for any fan or general reader of old Uncle Walt (as Robin Williams would say in Dead poets society, by Peter Weir.)
Its beautifully recorded and is easy to get into as Walt was always intended to be listened to rather than read. I recommend home private listening with preferebly a Bose wave system cd player or at least with a fine set of headphones...Enjoy, (plus its a bargain too !!!)
