The Caedmon tape set is genuinely available (I bought it from them a
couple of months ago)from Amazon [http://www.amazon.com/
<http://www.amazon.com/> ] - just do a search on Pound, they also claim
to have the Voices and Vision Video and Audio tape, can't 100% verify
this but they seem reliable when they say something is in stock.
 
Does anyone, who understands the origins of the Caedmon recordings, know
why Pound only recorded the middle section of LXXVI, it seems such a
pity.
 
The tapes are well worth obtaining, the only drawback is that I wish
there was more of them.

        I contacted Borders but was unable to find the recording you
refer to. I was
        given search options for Books, Videos, CD's, etc., but not
cassette tapes.
        Could you give a more precise reference?  Thanks.
