NOW, IF YOU LOVE COUNTRY SHOWS WITH MULTIPLE ARTIST FEATURES AND IN DEPTH INTERVIEWS ALONG WITH ONE OF BEST KNOWN COUNTRY DJ'S EVER, READ ON!

  This show, for all you vinyl lovers, and there are a bunch out there judging by the number of you that have responded to my rare and old vinyl radio show sales, is a rare vinyl series with the best of contemporary country  

But first, what exactly is a radio show?

The whole genre of radio shows is unknown to most music lovers.  Radio shows were pressed just for syndicating stations and went from five or six stations to as many as a couple hundred for stations across the United States that carried the program.

  They mostly aired on weekends (and still do to this day even though they are no longer available to collectors because now it is all by digital download.)

So unlike typical albums that may have had hundreds of thousands pressed, radio shows from the start had extremely limited distribution.

It thus becomes a unique and special addition to any collection whether you collect the series, a specific artist, or theme.  

So many of my buyers seek these rare shows that highlight their favorite artists and with interviews that can not be found anywhere else, as do I myself to further.

This show  is called LEE ARNOLD ON A COUNTRY ROAD  and aired on  THE WESTWOOD ONE RADIO NETWORK.  It is one one of the most popular and best loved country radio shows of all time.

This is because unlike countdown shows, Lee Arnold had extended features on a variety of artists on each show with long 'conversations' and a myriad of songs.  It is a 'down home show' that is fun to hear over and over.

It was a three hour weekly show with features, interviews, and fun along with the best country sounds ever.  

The three hour show comes on three lp's in excellent new condition especially having been aired over 31 years ago.

  The show comes with its cue sheets in excellent condition and housed in an attractive album cover as seen in the listing picture.

Each week Lee played the best of contemporary  country songs along with great classic oldies along with songs arranged in specialty themes throughout the show. 

 Most shows had a featured artist with multiple songs from that artist along with in depth interview segments.  

I have listed the featured artist and if you scroll through the pictured cue sheets you will see both the featured artist and the other artists presented.  Although the segments do not list the theme of that particular segment, for some it is obvious.  For the others, you will find out as you listen to this special program.

Please play it once to transfer it to mp3 or CD format so you can protect the rarity of this show.  There are so few left because most stations that aired them threw them away after broadcast since they could not be played again due to the time limited commercial content and the scarcity of space of most radio stations.  (Believe me I know all about that - I work at one!)

So there are likely very few left and most of those are in private collector collections

Note that many of these shows can be seen on ebay but without their cue sheets.  Unlike countdown shows where you can research what songs you are likely to hear through the broadcast date, there is no way to know what is on these shows without the cue sheets.  My shows all have their cue sheets in excellent condition as I have mentioned previously.

  I got this show as part of a library of over 1000 rare country lp radio shows from a private collector who knew radio station general managers and was able to acquire them directly from them.    Now they can be yours 

This show is #85-37 and aired on SEPTEMBER 8, 1985    

THERE ARE MANY EXTENDED "CONVERSATIONS" DURING THE SHOW WITH THE GREATEST COUNTRY ARTISTS AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE CUE SHEETS

SHOW CONTENTS CAN BE SEEN ON THE LISTING PICTURE       

             It is a great show with the one and only Lee Arnold who is a world wide known dj and did programs not only for Westwood One but for The US Army as a recruiting vehicle.      

     You will love this show and it belongs in your collection.   

     As well, It is a piece of radio history.  You just aren't going to find these shows anymore.  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 

  PLEASE REMEMBER MY GREAT DISCOUNTS ON SHIPPING.  FOR U.S. BUYERS, BUY AS MANY AS YOU WANT FOR ONE $2.99 SHIPPING CHARGE.  FOR MY INTERNATIONAL FRIENDS, PAY SHIPPING FOR YOUR HEAVIEST SHOW IF YOU BUY MULTIPLE SHOWS AND ALL OTHERS SHIP FOR FREE FOR AS MANY AS YOU PURCHASE except for multi lp shows which incur only an $8 additional charge for each multi lp show.   All single lp shows or any cd show ship for no additional charge.    THIS IS A HUGE DISCOUNT AND THE LEAST I CAN DO TO COUNTER THE TERRIBLY HIGH SHIPPING CHARGES. 

 Good Luck and God Bless You.
