As an avid admirer of the Great Detective, I have been collecting and listening to the various dramatic readings of the Sherlock Holmes stories, including such great voices as Basil Rathbone, Robert Hardy, Edward Hardwicke and David Timson, for more than thirty years now.
David Davies, however, in his latest issue, "Four from the Canon", has taken the art of dramatic interpretation to a whole new level. It is hard to believe that one man can become so many different characters, and to do it so convincingly. His character changes are so smooth and flawless that his readings often sound more like a full cast performance. David is not new at reading Sherlock and his previous efforts are all among the very best as well. So, whether you are a true Sherlockian or just enjoy a good mystery, David's latest rendering from the Canon is not to be missed. One would only hope he would go on and complete all sixty of the Holmes stories

I was reccomended to listen to this performance by fellow Sherlockians -- They said that Mr Davies of One Voice Recordings could almost achieve the impossible by creating full cast theatre with his own voice --- You will be amazed and stunned as well as I was after you hear this incredible work...
