hehehe! Thanks Mel! I love Dylan Thomas.

I did a report on his life and works while in high school, and I've bene hokked on him ever since. I think that because so many of this works were meant to be read aloud just as much as in the head is what gives them such a beautiful uniqueness.

btw - if you are interested, I have mp3 files of him reading many of his poems.

Yes!! I know, I have them as well

Somehow his voice adds an extra dimension to the poetry. That's why I liked John Cale's version of Do not go gentle so much, I think he's been listening to Thomas reading it very carefully, as his singing has the same cadence and tone. It's very good....do you know it?

No I dont know it, unfortunately. Can you help/tell me more?

Well, my father (A Dylan Thomas fan as well) discovered the song because he buys everything Cale ever released

I'm not sure which album it's on, but I'll ask my father if I can borrow it. In that way I could make a MP3 file of it and I might be able to send it to you (not sure if this will work)
I think it's a live recordings album, come to think of it...it also has a great version of Presley's Heartbreak Hotel on it (I'm dead serious...never thought that song could sound so...well, heartbreaking!

) You know what...I need to call my father anyway.... I'll ask him right now if I can reach him.
