This collection is essentially a data dump of some very good recordings originally issued on Argo LPs. Unless you have those original LP sleeves at hand, you will have no quick way of identifying unfamiliar poems (or readers). Be prepared to spend a little time searching up first lines. Authors and titles are not provided. Is a pdf really a top-tier luxury in the download business in 2020? The readings themselves, of course, are really everything—the real value here—and I am glad to see them easily available. Perhaps future releases will treat such wonderful archival material with more respect.
