Vivid
and often very funny storytelling, with interludes of
lute, psaltery and guitar music plus well judged background
effects to enhance the arresting and absurd pictures
conjured up by the tales. Listeners of all ages have
revelled in the imaginatively told stories of The King's
Beard and The Luck of the Cards or laughed as Will Bond's
misfortunes seem to multiply ridiculously in Will’s
Clogs. A collection to return to again and again.
