Another Great Voice

The passing of Paul Harvey reminded me of the other Great Voice in American Broadcasting: Ken Nordine. For millions of us who grew up during the 1970s, we all know him as the voice-over actor who said “Aah, Taster’s Choice.”

He did more than that, though, and his current program, Word Jazz, is available online and as a podcast.  Nordine is as fine a storyteller as Paul Harvey was, but Nordine is an abstract artist who happens to work in words. If you don’t know his material, you should.
