Do you listen to non-music media?


Hi I still have comedy vinyls I enjoy listening. I also bought some comedy CDs as well. I'm also fan of Ernest Hemigway reading his own novels.

Please share if you sometimes 'waste resources' of your precious audio system and just lay down a comedy or any spoken word record or CD to play?

I listen to audio plays, books and vintage radio shows.

Stacy Keach does a wonderful reading of Hemingway's short stories.
I have some old comedy LPs I listen to from time to time. Favorites are Justin Wilson (cajun humor) and . . . . Spike Jones (anyone remember him?)

I also have a decent collection of spoken word LPs on the old Caedmon label, but only listen infrequently. My favorite one features T. S. Eliot reading his own works.
Only one I have is Alan Ginsburg, Ballad of the Skeletons.

Only know Spike Jones from Levon mentioning him in Cripple Creek.
I often listen to courses from the Teaching Company, science, history, arts, economics and so forth. Some audiobooks, too. But this is usually through headphones while exercising or in the car. I don't often waste opportunities to listen to music when I'm at home, in the listening chair in front of the precious system.
