Re: Voice recording of Al Capone
Jesus he was apparently in his early 30s when he did this. He sounds like a morbidly obese 55 year old.

Re: Voice recording of Al Capone
I have no idea if this is true but some of the comments are saying this was an actor hired by Capone's granddaughter to replicate his voice. Would be great if it is him. The voice does sound like it has an accent and I remember one of the Capone biographers (who talked to people who actually him) says that Capone didn't have an accent. Who knows.

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.

Yes, I believe he was ashemd if his Brooklyn accent which he saw as low class and put in a lot of effort to train it out of himself.Pogo The Clown wrote: ↑Fri Aug 14, 2020 5:53 pm I have no idea if this is true but some of the comments are saying this was an actor hired by Capone's granddaughter to replicate his voice.

FWIW the guy here - whether Capone or someone else - doesmt have a Chicago accent at least. Notice he pronounces Chicago as "Chi CAH go" rather than "Chi CAW go". I'd imagine that after all his time in the city Capone's pronunciation would've picked up at least some local inflection.

Re: Voice recording of Al Capone
The comments. lol. And I'm not sure I buy it. There's just a certain way people of that era talked and I'm not hearing it in this. This sounds like an actor today.
Glick told author Nicholas Pileggi that he expected to meet a banker-type individual, but instead, he found Alvin Baron to be a gruff, tough-talking cigar-chomping Teamster who greeted him with, “What the fuck do you want?”

Re: Voice recording of Al Capone
Fellas this is a voice actor hired by Deirdre Capone to "reconstruct" her famous relative's voice several years ago. This thing pops up every once in a while online with people saying it's real. It's not him, but Ms. Capone said it's an accurate reconstruction.

Re: Voice recording of Al Capone
Yeah sound like he's reading from a script.
Re: Voice recording of Al Capone
Thats not Capone....its an actor. The most funny thing is that old hag Deirdre suddenly remembered his voice when she was only a small girl lol making money right?! Lol
