Harpo Talks!

On November 28, 2000, a British radio program titled “The Birth of Screen Comedy” included something most people had never heard before — the voice of Harpo Marx. The program’s staff had found an old interview tape of Harpo explaining how he had once fallen off a piano stool and how that had prompted a doctor’s visit.

If you prefer to imagine Harpo as never having a voice, maybe you should skip this one. But if you’ve always wondered what Harpo might have sounded like, here is your chance. The link to stream or download the MP3 audio file is here.
