INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN PHOTOS Percy Bysshe Shelley was perhaps the best of that handful of staggeringly bright and talented poets born of the Romantic era. Like his friends and peers Byron and Keats, Shelley died while still a young man but wrote prolifically and with a skill and understanding of human nature well beyond his years. As read here by the incomparable Vincent Price, this selection represents Shelley at his passionate and imaginative best, and defines the very essence of the Romantic movement in poetry. Selections include “Music, When Soft Voices Die,” “With A Guitar, To Jane,” “Ozymandias,” “From ‘Prometheus Unbound’,” “To A Skylark,” “Hymn To Intellectual Beauty,” “Ode To The West Wind,” and “Adonais.” Record is excellent, sleeve is with some rubs and slight separation at the seams. Caedmon Records , 1956. Video below is not mine, but a sample of Price's “Ozymandias.”NO RESERVE!
