Conrad Feininger is still the best narrator. As far as I'm concerned this is _the definitive voice_ for Lovecraft's work. His pitch, tone, accent and cadence are just the perfect match for the literature here.

Far superior to anything else I've heard. I don't feel like I'm hearing a Lovecraft story if it not in this old radio gravely voice. Too many modern readers are overly dramatic.
