Alexander Scourby is the best, but that's with the KJV translation. I wonder how Mark Taheny did with the RSV/CE. Anyone know?

I haven't listened to it, but I've heard this one is good.

Still, when I consider the narrator, I can only imagine hearing Lord Vader saying, "Now, we shall begin with the Gospel according to Luuuuuke"

My favorite audio version is when I read to my grandson.

This is not a reading of the Bible, but an explanation of it, chapter-by-chapter:
Thru the Bible
It is a series of free (but donate!) downloadable mp3s. I bought a neat little mp3 player (Samsung K5) with tiny built-in stereo speakers just to listen to this inspiring series.

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.

Definitely, the one narrated by Larry King on the Simpson's episode where Homer is dying from blowfish poisoning.

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.
