Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s detective genius, Sherlock Holmes, came to NBC radio in 1930 starring Richard Gordon. By 1939, Basil Rathbone was heard as Holmes with Nigel Bruce as Doctor Watson. The duo were simultaneously starring in a popular series of Sherlock Holmes features for Fox, and later for Universal. By the end of the feature run in the mid 1940s, Rathbone was eager to separate himself from the radio show to avoid being typecast. Tom Conway took over with Nigel Bruce continuing as Watson (in this pairing Nigel Bruce received top billing).

Wonderfully Entertaining
As a true fan of the Sherlock Holmes movies, I found Murder By Moonlight and Other Mysteries a wonderful collection to my radio programs. The stories are great and introduce a new Sherlock Holmes in Tom Conway. A delight to listen to. I hope that Audible can get a hold of many more of the Basil Rathbone & Nigel Bruce, Sherlock Holmes Radio Programs.

Good, but Dated
I enjoyed this collection, but was also disappointed. Some portions seemed trite, others dated, and few parts were "gripping." As a great piece of nostalgia, very good. But for me it had low "fire."
