Were looking at Greek myths…

Which made me wonder could these stories still be best experienced as part of that oral tradition?

Do they still offer much if we choose to listen to them rather than watch them?

In its taloned hand it held a human thigh bone, and blood dripped from its scabrous mouth.

For instance, the whole thing kicks off withMarsfrom HolstsPlanetssuite.

The Naxos recording doesnt sugar-coat these things, and I dont think a younger audience would need that anyway.

There cant really be a genuinely traditional approach to experiencing Greek myths and legends nowadays, I dont think.

This is a rare skill that so few people get to practice in this age.

Well, nothing but Ray Harryhausens Talos, maybe.

Ill love Talos forever.
