Couldn't agree more Doug. HM should have released this on a CD or iTunes. It's a great recording and like others before, we lost our tape too. I've been searching You Tube for a few years now and finally we can listen to the original William Hurt version. Thanks.
AMAZING. Looked all over for this last year. I just missed it. Used to listen to it with my folks each year but we also lost the tape. Bought the new version with Liam Neeson. It's good. But we missed the original. Tapes were selling online of the William Hurt version for ridiculous prices. Thanks for sharing!
This is the BEST reading of "The Polar Express"! William Hurt's voice is amazing. I am using your YouTube recording for my kindergarten class tomorrow because my old cassette just won't play anymore. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much Doug! My sister and I grew up with this too, and we realized tonight that we lost the tape somewhere between last Christmas Eve and tonight. Fortunately, a quick YouTube search led us to your video. Thanks for saving Christmas.
We lost the tape too... I grew up with this so THANK YOU!!!
