Alexander Scourby is the best, but that's with the KJV translation. I wonder how Mark Taheny did with the RSV/CE. Anyone know?
My favorite audio version is when I read to my grandson.
I really need to get a new one, I lost the 8-tracks that most of Psalms and all of Hezekiah.
I like the Listener's Bible with Max McLean narrating. It's not dramatized but there is a very quiet synthesized soundtrack in the background which, surprisingly, does add some dramatic depth to the words and helps move the narration along. I find Scourby a little over the top and his Shakespearean voice training distracting.

Hi, I'm Larry King.
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth...
(Homer fast-forwards over all the `begets')
... lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Well, that's it. Old Fred is standing by, we'll get some coffee, we'll get some matzo-ball soup. I love the San Antonio Spurs, by the way, if you're betting on the NBA this year, I think they'll win it all. So I guess there's nothing more to say but... [closing music]
Of course, since it ends with Malachi 4:6, another version will also be necessary.
I like the ESV. You can read and listen to it online at...
