Thank you so much for these! I have two very old, very stretched-out cassettes that I've been trying to replace with a CD for years.

+ he plays a beautiful, 'rustic' harp! what a gifted guy, learned that thing in midlife.
a sagittarian-- like twain, beethoven, k richards, jimi, schwaller de lubicz, scarlett johannson and woody allen, dan hicks [see the humour thread?] to name a few

"The Lad with the Goatskin" made me weep hot salty tears of laughter when last I saw RW in concert, great to be able to hear it again!

I can't get in touch with the Robin Williamson files. Could you repost them with rapidshare maybe.
I like this man and have a lot of his official material. Thanks

These are hilarious, especially the different voices he does for each character. Even my twelve year old daughter likes these.

I am all set up in my studio to convert cassette to digital. If there are any old Robin Williamson story tapes, be glad to. Let me know.
