"Clicking Sounds Okay" The Who "Live at Leeds"
Donald R Miller
(4 Sterne)
Pete Townshend of The Who wrote the above statement on the original cover of what many people, myself included, consider to be the best live album any rock band recorded. Too bad the sounds would ruin it for the previous reviewer. I like Tom Crawford's voice and his delivery, for it is what Librivox is at its community-recording best. Just an idea, but instead of complaining, a listener could always shell out some money for a professionally recorded audio book. Over the years, Librivox has been blessed with many professional or near professional quality volunteers. That's a fortunate occurrence, but one hopes that the spirit of a community effort always remains and that there is room for people who have various talents to offer. One talent that Tom Crawford has is giving his readings the impression of authenticity.

The chapters in this book are more intriguing than a tap dancing unicorn. Thank you to the exceptional narrator who brought the pages to life. The derogatory reviewers are in very bad taste to say the least. Are they so inept that they dont realize; narrators volunteer their time to record epic tomes such as this one? Perhaps such reviewers should go back to playing video games and watching episodes of the Kardashians.

reader speaks in a full monotone. it's a good book to fall asleep to he also has the unfortunate habit pronouncing every native word so awkwardly that they almost beat the listener into submission Extremely grating to one's ears! 🤐😣😠

This reader can be pleasant to listen to. I have enjoyed listening to him on other recordings. Unfortunately the equivalent he used this time wasn't so good. I didn't get past the 3rd chapter because of this.
Annoying Clicking Sounds

I hate giving bad reviews but there was something wrong with the reader's microphone. I kept hearing this clicking sound and gave up after the first chapter.
