About this listen

In the spring of 1984 Dan Gilvezan walked into an audition for a half-hour animated TV series and walked out an hour later with a role in a show that would change the landscape of television in the late ’80s: A show called The Transformers. As the voice of Bumblebee, the little yellow Volkswagen, Gilvezan was there from the very beginning, witness to the birth of an entertainment industry phenomenon that continues to surprise and delight audiences to this very day.

Bumblebee & Me takes you behind the scenes of the original Transformers television series for a first-hand look at the making of a classic. Experience the controlled chaos of the recording sessions, learn the secrets behind creating a character voice, get to know the members of the cast close up and personal. Chock full of stories, reminiscences, anecdotes and never-before-seen photographs, Bumblebee & Me is sure to satisfy even the most knowledgeable and discerning Transformers fan.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Dan Gilvezan does a fantastic job of describing the life and times of the 1980's. His autobiographical approach mixed with wry humour make this an entertaining venture and gives the audience a real inside perspective of the highs and lows of the team of voice actors he was surrounded by, bringing them to life and providing insightful glimpses into their lives along with a real feel of each actors personality. After the one plus hour of narration I really didn't want the stories and anecdotes to end! This is a short but sweet nostalgia trip, rammed with oodles of extra trivia and fun 'did you realise' quips. A real must for G1 Transformer fans, Children of the 80's or anyone who enjoys Dan Gilvezan's work. And, with this review written, I'm going to listen again.
