Copy of Shadow the Sheepdog audiobook?

Post by misomiso82 »

Hello!
I'm looking for a copy of the audiobook of Shadow the Sheepdog read by Christopher Timothy, and was wondering if anybody knows of any online copy anywhere?

I've been to amazon and ebay and had no luck, even though there are quite a lot other Enid Blyton audiobooks online.

Any help appreciated!

Many thanks

You could try asking the seller if they're willing to sell it you on it's own if you don't want all the others :D.

That's a great collection - I don't have a tape player any more though!

Have the audiofiles never been archived by the society at all? Some of them are very good.

The society doesn't own the rights, so even if it had digitalised tapes or recordings, it wasn't allowed to distribute them.

Sadly, it not read by Christopher Timothy, but I so enjoyed this on youtube:

You do find some rum things in your internet roamings, Pete! :wink:

I don't know whether it might be worth getting a secondhand tape player to listen to old cassettes, Misomiso? I bought a secondhand video player so I can still play my old videos (though I have a DVD player too).

Yes maybe - that collection on ebay is quite good and may be worth it.

Sorry Misomiso I always thought an audiobook was another term for a tape and that's what you were looking for.

At one time that's what they were, IceMaiden. Today it can be one of a number of things - Tape, CD, mp3. The 'Audible' arm of Amazon sells the books as mp3 downloads.
