Richard Burton's rich voice with some echo added for extra resonance, coupled with a dub tune in the background which somehow works.

Enjoy.

Quirky, but I'm a luddite and prefer the original

Yes, I don't think Polly Garter's song would be improved by a backbeat.

I like the extra resonance added to his voice.

The BBC recording with Burton is one of my favourite sounds, his voice has real presence. Classic version of a great play.

Backing track is a dub of the Ali baba riddim. Still prefer the John Holt or Dr alimontado versions.
In reply to Timmd:
I like the idea behind this but think that the dub track is too dominant in the first section - where it becomes more background later it works better. But it must be said that the words with their own rythmn transcend the music every time.

Thanks Timmd, I'm a massive Dylan Thomas fan, and can claim a (very) distant relationship to him.

I like this, it's fun.
