I have a copy of a rare voice clip that contains one of the only known recordings of Aleister Crowley (occult writer). The original recording was made around 1920 on a wax cylinder in London.
(I DO NOT have the origional. That is with a guy in California.)
This is a copy on a CD. 1 minute, 41 seconds longwith cool gothic background music playing.
I am taking offers on this unique trade!

Theres plenty of "known" recordings of crowley on amazon if you check it up. I personally too afraid to listen to his tapes or read his books cause im a big girls blouse. The guy freaks me out even though I know lots of facts about him and his sayings from people talking about him in there books (robert anton wilson) Ive got no idea why im so freaked out the beep by him but I am.

Yeah, I also have some recordings of him reading something (for example an excerpt of the Gnostic Mass- very creepy!). Actually they're not really rare. Maybe the poem, you've talked about is, dunno.
Lol, kinda funny, NCurran1987, because I looove his books and I always feel kinda "safe" when reading them. if that's what you can call it.. hah

I think maybe if I read him I'll find it all makes sense and thats kinda scary. And I had a kinda nightmare of him once from a couple of photos I seen of him and in the dream he was trying to find the real source of light in lidl supermarket (god knows why, maybe he likes a bargain) and the dream shifted from black and white to pure white to multicoloured psychdelics. Its was freaky as beep Weird balls of light were flying in places I think and he kept touching the wall (the older skinnier unhealtier crowley that is) and light was coming out of his fingers and he kept looking puzzeled by it and wondering and contimplating what it meant was what I read from his expression.
You know just the usual normal dream. I prefere my ones of the advanced apes driving me to school and me realising that im fully clothed from the waist up and naked from the waist down. I remembered that crowley dream because it was so freaky and Ive been kinda afraid of him since. Cause I never usually have dreams that freaky and weird you know. Just stupid ones about me flying or have a boring day walking about dreams.

Corrections
The recordings are not rare.
The recordings were not made around 1920, they were all made between 1936 and 1942. Mr. Crowley mentions them in his diaries.
The recordings were not made on wax cylinder (I have no idea where that idea comes from though it's often cited as a 'fact') they were actually made on transcription disc.
There is joy in the setting out; there is joy in the journey; there is joy in the goal.
