Brian Jacques

For approximately three decades, Brian Jacques worked for BBC Radio Merseyside as a presenter, hosting his own show of opera, comedy, and poetry called Jakestown.

Given that he is no longer on the air, it's impossible to know what that show may have sounded like.

Until now!

A YouTuber made several recordings of Brian Jacques reciting original poetry back in the day, and honestly it's nothing short of beautiful. I think I could listen to the man narrate a phone book. The words are heard over a backing soundtrack.

The video itself has nothing to do with Brian, just an accompaniment for the audio. The Redwall Wiki has conveniently organized all of these into a YouTube playlist for you.

Please enjoy!
