Welcome to the wonderful world of The Monkey Grinder!
This channel is a place to relax, a place to revisit your childhood, a place to discover sound/music oddities, an oasis of calm in the middle of this crazy world that just got a lot crazier.
The Monkey Grinder acts mostly as an archive of material from old analogue formats that have NOT been published in digital form. So no material that is available on CD will knowingly appear on this channel.
One of my projects is the accumulation of the original series (099-110 with a few others thrown in) of Rainbow dramatisation tapes, dating back to the early 1980s. I had a few of them as a child (Fantastic Mr Fox, Sea of Adventure and the Mystery of the Stuttering Parrot) and loved them. I decided to hunt down the rest of them and digitise the tapes before they vanish into obscurity.
Stay safe and thanks for listening, MG

Transformers - Galvatron's Air Attack (1986 Dramatisation)
มุมมอง 5822 ปีที่แล้ว
Hello again fellow cassette tape fans. It is nearly a year since my last upload, and I still haven't moved house properly! I will be making more Monkey Grinder Corner episodes once I find somewhere to live properly, but in the meantime here is a classic that I had on tape as a kid. The opening music brought me to shivers, isn't it amazing how sound and music can transport you back to what feels...
Asterix The Gladiator - Read by Willie Rushton - LFP7238 (1986)

Hi all! So here's a little treat for you to see out 2021 with. Willie Rushton is a legend (Go watch Trap Door if you haven't already!). The Christmas upload this year was going to be Leonard Rossiter reading A Christmas Carol, but I have just been too busy. Will hopefully get onto that one in the new year. Enjoy, and hope you all have a happy new year. MG

2:20 fear in her voice

5:17 shouting a lot😮
4:17 high voice 😂😂😂
Bro it is the best, from where can I buy the book???? X
Thank you for the upload, I had the book and accompanying cassette back in possibly 1989. but my brother taped over the cassette to make music. This was my first time hearing it in over 35 years though the opening sentence has been with me all this time (slightly wrongly remembered, lol)
I had this cassette as a child and have spent years trying to track a copy! Thank you so much cx
Where can I buy this book???? Please I need to buy this book or my kids will kill me if I don't by this book😂😂😂😂😂 Thanks for everything❤❤ Love from🇱🇧
There need to be more audio dramatizations for children to listen to. This was a satisfying treat for the ears! Thank you so much!
My favourite film ever watch it throughout the year,Leonard rossiter is just awesome,❤
❤ i love these audiobooks
Thank you, very beautiful story.
Tempo Talking Stories
In the book miss honey and Matilda's father and mother and miss trunchbull look so tall beside Matilda 😂😂
Wow❤❤❤
One Christmas my husband gifted me the two cassettes of Leonard Rossiter"s A Christmas Carol. Every Christmas Eve afterwards we listened together. After 48 years of a wonderful marriage I listen alone now, but am so grateful for the wonderful holidays Bob gave me. God bless us every one.
❤❤ happy new year ❤❤
I've never heard this before. It's very good, but the version by Bernard Cribbins cannot be matched.
I still have the 2 tapes of this! I had them transferred to CD but I've lost one My family have enjoyed this every year until that!! Not worked out to save it to my laptop so I can listen in my car. So pleased to hear it again. Thanks x
I used to have a copy of this on a double cassette, I used to listen to this as a kid in the very early 80’s. This is the best version. Thank you.
So Steven Pacey is the narrator and Mr Kranky; Patricia Hayes is Grandma and Mrs Kranky; and who was George?
Was there anything Bernard Cribbins didn't do as an actor?? Such a talented man. RIP.
Who wrote the theme music for this and what is it called?
Goddamn! I’ve been looking for this 😁 cheers dude!!!👍👍
Thank you and happy holidays
Thank you so much.
What a phenomenal audiobook recording
Ever since I could read this story has always been close to my heart. When I feel low it's my go to book and I always end up forgetting what was wrong at the time. Joanne Lumley has always, for me been a legend and 100% gold, shes "AbsolutelyFabulous" So, can u imagine my reaction when I came across this video, a smile from ear to ear with a lil dance. This audio is so relaxing and playful, Joanne was truly the only one to pull this off. Thank you world 😊

A GENIUS!!!!! 😂😂😂 I love it
Excellent, I can’t seem to get a copy of this anywhere. One of my favourite readings of it.
I think there is a copy on ebay for £40 at the minute, but I would say that is a bit steep!
How many adverts in 4o minutes? Wow.
Thank you :) This edition, which I had as a child, has wonderful cover art too
I had this exact tape - thank you for uploading :)
So much LOL. Loved this as a kid thank you :)
Amazing...used to listen to this on tape when I was little...thanks for uploading it 👍
Love The Three Investigators 🕵️🕵️♀️🕵️♂️😮
Great. !!! ,Wonderful. !!! Douglas Wilmer the Unsurpassable TV Sherlock. Holmes.....<None Better.
This is awesome! thanks for finding this! Still remember when I got the figure of Stratos back in about 1988, then listening to this whilst playing wit Stratos and skeletor, using a toy tera dactyl to stand in for the wyvern, and a big pile of cushions for snake mountain (which I didn't have the figure of). Though in my version, Stratos got to fly Skeletor out over a huge cliff aka the edge of the sofa and drop him to his doom! :D
That's brilliant! I had Snake Mountain in about 1986 and I loved it. It had a microphone built into it, so I could shout "He-Man, you boob!" down it as I dropped He-Man into the trap door haha
@@TheMonkeyGrinder I did get a second hand snake mountain in the early nineties when I was ten, the trapdoor and net were awesome, though sadly the microphone didn't work! :D.
Simply fantastic! Gov’na 👏
My kids had this on double audio tape. I'm really pleased to find it here for the grandkids. Thanks for uploading.
What an excellent reading, I really enjoyed it. Thank you 😀♥️
