This was ripped from the cassette version. The time stamps on the back of album as can be seen in the link above are not accurate.
Some of Herbert's other readings have been made available on Audible and can be found here on Youtube, but not this one or his reading of excerpts from HERETICS.

For me, the best thing about this recording is we get to hear the intended pronunciations. We've been saying these names incorrectly.
-
The first time he reads a book, he chooses God-Emperor. That's telling.
-
Holy shit. Recorded in 1982? Is this actually Herbert reading? Oh my god, what a fucking find!
-
This book was Herbert’s magnum opus.
-
Just rereading this.....I'd forgotten how much of a mindfuck this book is. Absolutely brilliant! This time I paid more attention to Siona and the Fish Speakers...what a fascinating concept. The chapter on Siaynoq is also mindblowing!

I wish I owned this vinyl record of Frank Herbert reading his own work.
