From Jan Alan Henderson on January 24, 2004: I spoke with Jack Larson, and he informs me that an Astronaut's Tale was released by Albany Records. Jack wrote the libretto and narrates this wonderful opera. It is available at Tower Records outlets as well as Amazon.com. It has a terrific cover by one of the finest artists of our time, David Hockney.
