Thank you very much for the fantastic recording!! It just needs a few more seconds of silence at the end, though (please leave 5 seconds of silence)

Thanks again!

Excellent recordings! Please remember to put in the ID3 tags next time, or check that they are ID3v2. Thank you! (no need to re-upload, I'll fix it during cataloging)

I've been trying to upload a recording for 2 days now, it keeps telling me the connection was interrupted. It could be my server being slow.

Just wanted to check that the file has not been uploaded already, and annoyingly more than once?

file name would be: nightsnothingsagain_sandburg_rl

Nights Nothings Again by Carl Sandburg.

Let me know before i keep trying. Thank you!

If the uploader doesn't work, then you can always send it via Yousendit or Mediafire.

Hi there,
I think the poem by Robert Frost I submitted above may not be PD as I now think it was published after 1923. Could you scrap it for now until we can be sure?

Thanks and apologies for the inconvenience.

this site http://www.americanpoems.com/poets/robertfrost/12114 says it's from the volume "new hampshire", published in 1923, so I think we're OK

Hey there,

I've just listened to my recording again, and wanted to do another run, which turned out much better, i think.

I've uploaded it as:

Excellent reading! You really have an amazing voice!

Just remember to record in mono channel, though (yours was stereo).

Thanks for your great contribution!
