It’s more or less accepted that Shakespeare is the greatest writer in English, but this large box set shows he was a really a musician of language.. The speeches and scenes spread over the course of 6 CDs, carefully arranged to cover themes of love, wonder, humanity and death, play like brief symphonic passages. Indeed, in the hands of actors like Richard Burton, Brian Murray, Vanessa Redgrave and Orson Welles, the material truly sings. While some may find the editing a bit choppy, slicing passages to their best known parts, the goal is clearly to celebrate the wisdom and art of the Bard. While the context of some of the passages may be a bit foggy to a first-time listener, the final two disc offer an entire performance of Romeo and Juliet with Claire Bloom and Albert Finney.

Text of songs:

My grandfather’s clock was too large for the shelf,
So it stood ninety years on the floor;
It was taller by half than the old man himself,
Though it weighed not a pennyweight more.
It was bought on the morn of the day that he was born,
And was always his treasure and pride.
But it stopp’d short, Never to go again,
When the old man died..　↓
My grandfather said, that of those he could hire,
Not a servant so faithful he found:
For it wasted no time, and had but one desire,
At the close of each week to be wound.
And it kept in its place, not a frown upon its face,
And its hands never hung by its side;
But it stopp’d short, Never to go again,
When the old man died..
*Chorus
Ninety years without slumbering
Tick, tock, tick, tock,
His life seconds numbering,
Tick, tock, tick, tock
It stopp’d short, Never to go again
When the old man died. ↓ It rang an alarm in the dead of the night,
And alarm that for years had been dumb;
And we know that his spirit was pluming its flight,
That his hour of departure had come.
Still the clock kept the time, with a soft muffled chime,
As we silently stood by his side;
But it stopp’d short, Never to go again,
When the old man died..
In watching its pendulum swing to and fro,
Many hours had he spent while a boy;
And in childhood and manhood the clock seemed to know,
And to share both his grief and his joy.
For it struck twenty-four when he entered the door,
With a blooming and beautiful bride.
But it stopp’d short, Never to go again,
When the old man died.

How gentle is the rain
That falls softly on the meadow
Birds high above in the trees
Serenade the flowers with their melodies oh oh oh
See there beyond the hill
The bright color of the rainbow
Some magic from above
Made this day for us
Just to fall in love
Now I belong to you
From this day until forever
Just love me tenderly
And I’ll give to you every part of me oh oh oh
Don’t ever make me cry
Through long lonely nights without love
Be always true to me
Kept it stay in your heart eternally
Someday we shall return to this place upon
The meadow
We’ll walk out in the rain
Hear the bird’s above sing once again oh oh oh
*
You’ll hold me in your arms
And say once again, you love me
And if your love is true
Everything will be just as wonderful
(*Repeat)

In many ways, this album echoes the simple pleasures and innocence of infancy and childhood. Childish tra-la-las tempered the distortion of Nirvanas own songs. Chimes, glockenspiels and other gentle instruments temper Nirvanas wild spirit for your little one. Smells Like Teen Spirit? Smells like nap time! This cool baby music rocks! Track List: In Bloom, Smells Like Teen Spirit, Lithium, Something in the Way, About a Girl, On a Plain, Heart-Shaped Box, All Apologies, Serve the Servants, Come as You Are
