Under Milk Wood A play for voices by DYLAN THOMAS with Richard Burton ,
Hugh Griffith , Mervyn Johns
If Dylan Thomas was the spirit of Wales, then Richard Burton was its voice. These two great talents came together in Douglas Cleverdon 's 1963 production of Thomas's play for voices which is repeated here as a tribute to the late Richard Burton.
Burton narrates the classic story of the village of Llareggub, its people and its places.
PETER RICHARDS , COURTNEY DAVIES The songs set by DANIEL JONES The children's songs and singing game recorded at
ALBERT ROAD JUNIOR SCHOOL,
PENARTH
Directed by DOUGLAS CLEVERDON (First broadcast on the Third Programme in 1963)

Richard Burton , CBE (1925-84) The son of a Welsh miner,
Burton aged 19, played Angelo in the OUDS production of Measure for Measure; after roles in three plays by Christopher Fry , he won critical acclaim as Prince Hal in Henry IV at the 1951 Stratford season.
Kenneth Tynan wrote 'a shrewd Welsh boy shines out with greatness; a still brimming pool running disturbingly deep'. Seasons at the Old Vic alternated with roles in some 52 films and the cinema eventually eclipsed his stage career.
