Books on Tape

[Jay Herzog]

	Shatner's true musical masterpiece is his psychotic reading of
	"Mr. Tambourine Man"--When he "sings" "in the jingle jangle
	mornin' I'll come following you" it sends chills up the spine.
	Also, on a more recent note, check out his stentorian narration
	of "The Atomic Bomb movie", a one sided (Edward Teller is one of
	two scientists interviewed) travesty that lingers on pretty
	shots of A-bombs exploding accompanied by psuedo religious choir
	music. Col. Blicero would have loved it. I had to watch "Atomic 
	Cafe" afterward to cleanse my palate.
