Here. The original album version of Jeff Wayne’s The War of The World’s is available in Dolby Atmos on Apple Music.

I checked as The Spirut of Man sounded slightly different on my HomePod Stereo Pair.

I love Dolby Atmos with the passion of a converted sceptic.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1938, #OrsonWelles narrated and produced an adaptation of #TheWarOfTheWorlds on #CBS Radio. There was public panic, as many listeners tuned in after the start, and the broadcast seemed too realistic. Police were inundated with calls about Martian invasion.

I finished #TheWarOfTheWorlds last night. A good story and written in a very familiar manner for my sensibilities. What struck me was how familiar the geography described was, i.e. the boroughs of #London, particularly of the west and south west, with which I was familiar when i was at #ImperialCollege, which incidentally was also where Wells went too (although it was not called that then).
