2.0 out of 5 stars
Beware of advertisements in these recordings,
By Great Dad "Steven" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Twilight Zone Radio Dramas, Vol. 1 (10 CD Set) (Audio CD)
These stories are well done but what they neglect to mention is that there are advertisements 2 to 3 times per episode. A major flaw. When I pay for a recoeded story I don't want to have to forward through the ads. So be warned if you don't like advertising in your listening experience don't buy these!!!

Amazing sound experience!,
By FOX (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Twilight Zone Radio Dramas, Vol. 1 (10 CD Set) (Audio CD)
First off, this is NOT just the audio tracks from the TV show put onto CD. These are close to the same story lines from the classic shows, but were actually rewritten and modified for radio, as the visuals now have to be in your mind, not on a television screen. The actors are different too, and the audio is the cleanest, most crystal clear audio of any recording you can find today. Plus the stereo imaging is amazing.
This is a treat to listen to just if you an audiophile into really great audio and production techniques alone, it is an adventure for your ears. But the stories are classics as well, so this is a really nice treat. I have heard a few episodes played on a local radio station and on XM radio, but neither of those two sources do any justice to the audio quality and sonic realism of having the actual CD and listening to it on good speakers or headphones directly from these CDs. The sound effects are really amazing too. No Twilight Zone fan should be without this, and anyone into Old Time Radio programs would really find this a treat as well, especially with the digital clean audio. No tape hiss, no record pops, it is creepy how clear the audio is.

Into The Twilight Zone...Anywhere !,

This review is from: Twilight Zone Radio Dramas, Vol. 1 (10 CD Set) (Audio CD)
These are some of the original T.Z. episodes re-written especially for 'radio'.
Now available on CD, these are the first ten episodes of the radio series on ten discs. The stories are in no particular order according to the T.V. show, but does include 'The Lonely', the first televised episode. The other stories include 'Night of the Meek', 'A Kind of Stopwatch', 'The Lateness of the Hour', 'The Thirty-Fathom Grave','The Man in the Bottle','The After Hours', 'Mr.Dingle The Strong', 'A Stop At Willoughby' and 'Of Late I think of Cliffordville'. They do vary in (content)quality, from stories like 'Night of the Meek'...whilst very professional and well executed, is also very 'workmanlike' and lacking the atmosphere of the original. However, 'The After Hours' works magnificently portraying a truly spooky atmosphere which is enhanced by these pin-sharp recordings. Stacy Keach steps into Rod's wingtip brogues as the host 'in-and-out' of the stories and he is an excellent choice. Each episode has a guest star and I for one was pleasantly shocked by how good Lou Diamond Phillips is, as he crops up a few times in the entire series. All in all, a very good first volume. A good choice of stories, something quite literally for everyone (horror, suspense, comedy and sci-fi stories) with top notch production values. I will certainly be buying Volume 2 & 3 as I have enjoyed this one so much.
