The record
Not a jazz record at all -- Prestige's LA 30004 is Burgess Meredith reading two Ray Bradbury stories, 'There Will Come Soft Rains' and 'Marionettes Inc.', produced by Don Schlitten and issued on LP in 1962. No musicians are credited. An odd corner of the Prestige catalogue, and one worth knowing about before you file it by mistake.
