Description: SO HERE IS THE BIG QUESTION: WHAT IS A RADIO SHOW? WHY COLLECT THEM? WHERE DO THEY COME FROM? Well, those are good questions, especially if you have never known of them. Radio Shows are syndicated productions by one of several large and small distributors who supply broadcast product to radio stations normally during weekends when the usual air personalities have a break. Many air on Saturday or Sunday evenings or during overnight segments. They often feature some of the best known voices for their genre from across the country thus the Dick Clark's and Casey Kasem's and Rick Dees and Dick Bartley and so many others. People collect them for various reasons. Some just collect the series because they like it and want them all. Some collect their favorite artists or genre of music. Rather than an album by the artist or a compilation bought at Wal Mart or downloaded through iTunes or wherever, they have a unique presentation of their favorite artist or music not available anywhere else and always with dj presentations which were very entertaining. Some collect interviews with their favorite artists as most shows had interview segments. Believe it or not, some collect commercials especially old car commercials but certainly not limited to only those. AND, these shows are in limited quantity. They were pressed just for syndicated stations in the United States. Many of these shows have just a few still in circulation. Some of the more popular shows may have as many as a hundred of each week's show that survived but think about it. A hundred for some 200 million Americans and millions of overseas collectors who look for unique presentations of their favorite artists or form of music is about as rare as rare can be. AND they are increasingly hard to find. They were first distributed on reel to reel tape if the show goes back that far into the 60's, then later on lp, later on CD and even later (after 2000 for most shows) on CDR. Now they are not available at all to collectors since they are distributed by digital download much like you get your music from iTunes. These shows become rarer and rarer every day because the people who buy them hold on to them and the people who sell them, like me, are running out of them. My best contact for these shows is running very low and when he is gone I will be at the mercy of finding a good deal here and there but never from a regular source. The shows that you get now and hold on to will never decrease in value and only increase. Even during the recession which is hopefully ending, the value of shows did not diminish much. The number bought diminished because people were afraid to spend their money and who blames them. But the prices did not decrease much and again are on the increase. I have prided myself since the start to provide the best and fairest cost with a no holds barred guarantee that you will be happy or I refund your money. I sell them for near what I bought them for. I give volume discounts and discount postage always. As the postal service increases their rates, my shipping rates over the years has decreased. And, I have one of the biggest radio show libraries in the world consisting of many thousands of shows, so many that I don't even know all that I have and am sometimes amazed when I go to look for one show and find another that I did not realize I had. Finally, it is Americana at its best. Whether the show be from the 60's or 2000's, rock, countdown, oldies, country, classical, religious, jazz or big band, it is unique and home grown. And you just can't find them anywhere. Even record stores that still exist will rarely have any. Radio shows are wonderful representations of the real golden age of radio at least music wise. And every one you buy is an original, not a copy, not a remake - all are limited editions in the hundreds at most and most much less. Once you get hooked, like me, it is a love affair for life! Welcome to the Club! IF YOU DO LIKE RADIO SHOWS FEATURING THE BEST MUSIC OF ALL TIME IN EVERY GENRE IMAGINABLE, YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE. Here are some of the great series I have in LP or CD: Dick Clark's Rock Roll and Remember, Flashback, Casey's Top 40 or Top 20, AT40, AT20 or AT10 with Casey, AT40 with Ryan Seacrest, Dick Clark's Countdown America, Dick Clark's National Music Survey, Cousin Brucie, Live in the 60's with the Real Don Steele, The Classics, Blues Deluxe, CMT Weekly Country Countdown, Bob Kingsley's Country Top 40, Weekly Country Music Countdown, Solid Gold Scrapbook, Hard Drive , Pile Driver, Back Traxx, Beatle Years, Crook and Chase Country Countdown, Bill Cody's Country Oldies, Jukebox Explosion, Rise Up Country with John Ritter, Urban Mixx, Street Heat, Powerline, Good Time Oldies Magazine, Tom Joyner Mike Harvey's Super Gold, Tom Kent From the Basement 70's show, House of Blues, Leeza Gibbons Hollywood Confidential, Leeza Gibbons countdown shows, and literally scores more so that it would take the rest of the page to name them all. Besides the two music rooms in my house, I also have a 10 x 20 air conditioned storage shed filled to the brim with great shows. I have one of the biggest collections in the world. They are all available to you for the asking. I only have time to list a fraction of my shows because I work full time and this is my hobby, but just know they are there! I give special discounts for bulk purchases of any show. You tell me what you want, I put up a Buy It Now Auction for you, and they quickly head your way!!! OK guys and gals, in this outing, A RARE TREAT!!!! Picture yourself back in the 70's, 80's and even the 90's. You were glued to your transistor radio listening to the country top 40 presented by your local radio station. You had that radio glued to your ear or connected with the little earphone jack that immediately broke. Your local dj was great. He knew the music. He had the gift of talking which rarely occurs anymore. You loved the presentation of the music as much as the sounds. You liked the station jingles. And on weekends when the local dj's had off, you listened to either taped shows they did during the week to be played on the weekend or a syndicated radio show featuring one of the greats. It was the golden age of music. Music was king and the dj's were just as popular. You can relive those days whether you grew up then or just wish you had on only a handful of oldies shows. THIS IS ONE OF THEM. RETRO COUNTRY USA BEFORE YOU CHECK OUT THIS SHOW, NOTE MY LOW SHIPPING AND SHOW PRICES!!! 2.99 cent shipping for as many as you buy saves you big bucks!!!

OK guys and gals, here is a rare treat for you radio show fans. I am listing some of my "RETRO COUNTRY USA" shows. It is a weekly TWO hour TWO CD show in immaculate condition looking like it was never played before and in fact it was probably played the day it aired and that's it. IT WAS DISTRIBUTED BY SUPERRADIO It comes with its cue sheets which are in excellent condition. Now, as to the show itself. It was a weekly production but not well known. It is a country oldies show with a featured artist on every show with several songs from that artist. I only have a few of them and I will be listing themn for you and then they are gone. It is a great show and belongs in your collection. The music selection is amazing and you will love it. Now is your chance to own some for yourself. WOW!!! You will learn a lot about music through this great show and the mix of music is terrific. The face of country music has continually increased in popularity year after year and are often the highest rated stations in their markets. AND, you just cannot find these shows anymore. The CD the show comes on is beautifully decorated, probably the most colorful of any radio show. All SUPER RADIO distributed shows had the same CD art. There is a lot of red and orange as you can see in the listing picture. It features music from the top contemporary country artists of the day in an entertaining and fascinating format with many special features. This week's show is # 268 and aired on FEBRUARY 17, 2003. It belongs in your collection!!! Here is what you will hear on this great show WITH A SPECIAL TRIBUTE TO JOHNNY CASH! Wildwood Flower There Ain't No Good Chain Gang (with Waylon Jennings) Orange Blossom Special A Boy Named Sue Ghost Riders In The Sky I Walk The Line Folsom Prison Blues and Sunday Morning Coming Down ALL by Johnny Cash , The Judds - Cry Myself To Sleep Doug Stone - I'd Be Better Off In A Pine Box Makin Up For Lost Time - Crystal Gayle Love Don't Care Who's Heart - Earl Thomas Conley Close Enough To Perfect - Alabama Dixieland Delight - Alabama You Can't Hide Beautiful - Aaron Lines Rest Your Love On Me - Conway Twitty Why Do We Want - Reba McEntire You're My Jamaica - Charley pride Don't Go To Strangers - T Graham Brown A Little Bit Crazy - Eddy Raven I'm Gonna Hire a Wino - David Frizzel Hillbilly Rock - Marty Stuart Wolverton Mountain - Claude King Don't Call It Love - Dolly Parton I Wish I Could - Oakridge Boys Pocket Full of Gold Vince Gill Old Hippie - Bellamy Brothers and Never Had It So Good - Mary Chapin Carpenter Remember, this is the original show sent for airing. It is NOT an unauthorized copy but the Real McCoy!!! I personally guarantee that every radio show that I sell is the original show sent to stations. Each show comes from my personal collection of thousands of radio shows of every genre. Stations could use the show anytime during that weekend. Then they became available in their limited quantities for a few of us to enjoy. I don't know if I would describe this show as ultra rare , but I know that there are not too many floating around. In fact, when they are on eBay they tend to get bought quickly. You are truly buying a show that will only increase in value and I am selling them at a price very close to what I paid for it. It just doesn't get much better than that, music fans!!!! Remember that this and all the radio music shows that you see on eBay are not just about the music - the music can be found anywhere. It is the mixture of great music and great announcing that makes it so entertaining. As well, it is a piece of radio and music history. You just aren't going to find these shows around very much longer as everything becomes digitized and downloaded for play and shows are no longer sent out on CD's. (This has already occurred with most radio show series.) Think of what they will be worth in a few years! (IF you wanted to sell.) I am selling to share with other music lovers what I was able to get at a reasonable price. I am saving those shows I treasure the most and sharing the rest with you for very reasonable prices. Those I do not sell, I will just keep! It is a great show and would be a valuable addition to your collection. As always, for U.S. buyers, I charge only shipping on the first show you buy so the more you buy the more money you will save. For my international friends, I will significantly discount shipping on more than one purchase. Good Luck and God Bless You.
