About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox's weekly poetry project for the week of April 2, 2006: The Purple Cow, by Gelett Burgess. LibriVox volunteers bring you nine different versions of this famous nonsense rhyme, the weekly poem of April 2nd, 2006. The April Fool's Day spirit was slow to leave us this spring, so as you listen, watch out for mischief!
