I love this and I agree about wishing more copied this concept! I'm a little younger than you, and I when I used to go to summer camp, I would tape the audio from my favorite movies and TV shows onto cassette so I could listen to them. Years later, I discovered old radio shows from the 1940s- Miracle on 34th Street, It's A Wonderful Life, Gaslight, etc all with the original casts (but read live before an audience). It's niche, but very cool!

Retroist, your expressively-written, evocative piece has enabled me to imagine myself cozied up to my trusty record player, whisked away to the jungles of Peru. While I may never listen to the vinyl version of this recording, my eager ears can't wait to hear of Dr. Jones' daring exploits via a purely audio experience. Thanks for sharing!
