Radio shows were first syndicated on reel to reel tape, later on LP stereo discs, then CD's and now digitally. Collectors can no longer get their hands on this quality material so the surviving shows that are available will keep going up and up in value. These radio shows were never intended for public use & most were destroyed or returned to the manufacturer after use, so they're very difficult to find.   Founded in 1976 by Norman Pattiz, the original Westwood One was one of the largest producers and distributors of radio programming in the United States.  Based in New York City, they broadcast entertainment, news, weather, sports, talk, and traffic programming to about 7,700 radio stations across the United States.
In January 1981 Pattiz started recording live concerts for broadcast and became a leader in live broadcasts and concert recordings for radio until May, 2011.  Westwood One was most notable for its coverage of live events, and on-location recording of concerts allowing them to provide live music to fans around the country.  In October of 2011 Westwood One merged with Triton Media Group to form the current Westwood One.
Timothy White began his journalism career as a writer for the Associated Press.  In the early 1980's he became a Senior Editor for Rolling Stone Magazine before becoming Editor-in-Chief at Billboard Magazine in 1991.  Timothy White's Rock Stars was a Nationally Syndicated Radio Series hosted and Produced by White himself.  
This episode features The Talking Heads and includes 13 songs.  This is the real deal:  The Original Vinyl LP's used for Broadcast in 1989, over 27 years ago.  This show was distributed by Westwood One Radio Networks and comes with the original cue sheet with detailed track listing in excellent condition.  Please see the photos of the cue sheet for the detailed track list and timeline.
This extremely rare radio show is being sold from one collector to another. No rights are given or implied.    If you have any questions or would like more information, do not hesitate to ask.    Good luck, and thanks for looking!
