Lights's Voice...


Assuming that anyone would be interested, I found a link to an audio file with Lights's voice ( an excerpt from the 1937 BBC interview>


Just scroll down til you see the link to the file...instant Lightsy Live (well, as of 1937 anyhow! emoticon emoticon)

It's a shame that your voice was never recirded...as U recall, it was somewhere between a tenor and a bartone...with a nice rolling brogue to it.
