A fine collection form a fabulous writer


(4 stars)

Thank you for this fine collection of stories. So often producers just use the "usual five" of Bradbury's stories so to have this library of published and even unpublished stories is exciting.

amazing collection

Thank you so much for "The Summer Raptures of Ray Bradbury." I had it on a reel to reel tape almost 50 years ago, but lost it to the travails of time. This is pure magic to finally hear this wonderful CBC broadcast again, and I have downloaded it in flac format. Thank you, dear uploader! What a wondrous broadcast! Jimmy Lee in Chicago

Amazing!

I was so very glad to find this and many thanks to you for your meticulous and diligent work. I decided to upload these in mp3 format to my phone so I could take it with me on vacation. I had no troubles at all until I got to one particular file: 1975-10-05 Steve Markam with Ray Bradbury, Norman Corwin & Frank Bresee on KFAC Los Angele. I tried a few different things like changing the name but it just wouldn’t upload. So I thought I’d give you a heads up. Hope this is helpful. Cheers!

Thanks for the feedback
