NOW, DO YOU LIKE OLDIES, AND IF SO OLDIES PRESENTED IN THE 'BIG BOSS' STYLE OF THE 60'S PRESENTED BY ONE OF BOSS RADIO'S PREMIER DJ'S AND PRODUCERS?  IF SO YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE!  READ ON!

SO HERE ARE THE BIG QUESTIONS: 

 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 wherever, they have a unique presentation of their favorite artist or music not available anywhere else and often with dj presentation which is very entertaining. 

 Some collect interviews with their favorite artists as most shows had interview segments.  

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 and many have just a few in circulation.  Some of the more popular shows may have as many as a few hundred of each week's show that survived but think about it.  A few hundred for some 200 million Americans and millions of overseas collectors who look for unique presentations of their favorite artists or form of music. 

Many radio stations just tossed them away after airing because they could never be aired again due to the time limited commercials and the limited storage space at most radio stations (believe me I know, I work at one!)

SO 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 out and I am now 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. 

  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 over ten thousand 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 limited editions in the hundreds at most and many much less.  Once you get hooked, like me, it is a love affair for life!    Welcome to the Club! 

     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 that you will rarely find on eBay ever.   

  It is called  LIVE FROM THE 60's WITH THE REAL DON STEELE 

  It was an enormously popular show in its day and is now rarely available except  through overseas sellers who have accumulated them for their own collections over the years. 

 It featured one of the 60's biggest dj's, Don Steele, an original "Boss Jock" who helped originate the super sound of the 60's that we all knew and loved.

In fact, each hour of this three hour show replicated an hour of the featured year in the 60's with the "Boss Jock" dj patter, jingles, entertainment items and everything from that featured year that you remember.

If you know and love 60's radio and music you know "The Real Don Steele"

   The show comes with its cue sheets in excellent condition and the vinyl discs themselves are  immaculate and like new.  This show probably was played on the day it aired and not since, 29 years later. 

     Each hour contained up to 18 tunes from the featured year.  It is an enthralling hour that will captivate you.  You will be disappointed when it is over and want even more!  

    THIS WEEK'S SHOW FEATURED THE YEARS 1965, 1962 AND 1969

I HAVE ONLY A FEW OF THE FANTASTIC SHOWS FROM THIS SERIES AND  WILL BE LISTING THEM UNTIL THEY ARE GONE.  MOST OF YOUR FAVORITE 60's ARTISTS ARE REPRESENTED.

 This show aired the week of   MARCH 18, 1991 AND IS  SHOW #91-12

  THE MUSIC FROM THIS GREAT SHOW CAN BE SEEN ON THE PICTURED CUE SHEET IN THE LISTING WHICH RARELY ARE FOUND WITH THIS SHOW.

THIS IS BECAUSE THE CUE SHEETS ONLY PROVIDED THE TIMES OF EACH COMMERCIAL BREAK AND THE COMMERCIALS WITHIN THAT BREAK WHICH WAS ALL THE STATION BOARD OPERATOR NEEDED.

THE SONG LIST, THEREFORE, WAS USUALLY JUST DISCARDED.

MY SHOWS TO YOU INCLUDE THE MOST OFTEN MISSING SONG SHEET SO YOU CAN SEE EACH SONG DURING EACH HOUR.  CHECK OTHER LISTINGS FOR THIS SERIES AND YOU WILL SEE THAT THERE IS NOT A SONG LISTING

NO OTHER SHOW PRESENTED THE BOSS JOCK YEARS OF THE 60'S AS DID THIS ONE. 

             It is a great show.         It is a great hour.  The music is  MEMORABLE!  

         Remember, when you buy this show, not only will you own the tunes but also interspersed between songs is fascinating commentary on the artists and songs.  

  Also, keep in mind that this and all  shows 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 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  

 Most people even enjoy the national commercials that are included on the show because some 30 years later they sound fresh and bring back more innocent time!      Some people buy the shows for the commercials  they collect!  Either way, it is a great show and would be a valuable addition to your collection

Good Luck and God Bless You.
