As a long time avid fan of HHGTTG I stumbled across a website which had the audio files for the original radio show. In the interests of archiving I have downloaded them to TOP for hosting.I will be adding the links shortly.

thanks for hosting them!
Thanks for the upload.
Wow…thanks so much! Thought i had no chance of finding them!
Hi, do these files cover entire book, all the chapters?
These files cover the complete radio show.
Wow! Thank you, Sir!
Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou!!! What a find! You are good, vgood.
Hitchhikers is a gem, what a shame Douglas died so young.

Glad you found them, agreed real shame about Adams. I’m in the UK where are you from?
Plague times call for old memories-thanks for the collection-my old copies on cassettes are dispersed-best wishes
A great discovery. Thanks for hosting.
Hi Gerry no problem, enjoy!
Thanks a million for uploading and sharing the collection!
Hi Riley, no problem, enjoy!
This is great! I had cassette tapes recorded off the radio, but now no cassette player!
Thank you very much! I no longer have a cassette player to play my originals on so this is perfect
You are my hero. I bow to your greatness.
Ah you are too kind, hope it makes lockdown a little more bearable for you.
Thanks so much for sharing. I’m making a big tediously detailed painting and it kept me going. Is there a second series on MP3?
Cheers,

Hi Michelle glad they are helping you, what are you painting? The one on here is the original radio series but I think there were other audio ones as well. I will have a look.
Many thanks for sharing these. I recall listening to these as a kid (big brothers are useful tipsters!) I will relisten and enjoy again with thanks to you.

Hi Andrew no problem at all, enjoy!
Happy Towel Day 2020!
Thank you for this. Happy towel day!
Wow, I remember listening to these as a kid (and reading the books too many times to count!) Thank you so much for posting these!
Hi, does this cover all the books, volume 1 to 5?
I turn 42 this weekend. I plan to listen to this as part of my birthday celebration. Thanks for posting these for so long. 🙂
You have performed a great service to humanity in these dark days. Hopefully we will get through these times just as Arthur Dent does.
O wow, I thought I’d never be able to hear these, thank you so much!
Best find ever. Thanks so much!
Thank you so much, what a gem of a series!
THANKS SOOO MUCH! I also had cassettes recorded from other cassettes recorded from NPR. Long since misplaced my copies and have been looking to hear these again. FWIW it sounds to me like your copies are running a little sped-up. To me they sound more like I remember slowed down about 6 or 7%. I don’t have any objective reference though. I made copies for myself slowed down 6% if you’d like to compare. Also have a version with some dynamic compression that I think helps a bit. I’d be happy to pass them back to you if you like. Meanwhile I’ll share and enjoy them over a cup of something that is almost, but not entirely, unlike tea.
Hi Peter glad your liking them. Interesting about it being sped up as not had anyone else mention it but yes if I could have a copy of your edited versions that would be great to compare.
