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. 

First allow me tell you my own personal story of discovering the wonder of radio shows.

  I discovered radio shows quite by accident while reading one of my favorite (long since departed) magazines called "Discoveries" (It was later bought by the same company that publishes "Goldmine" which I personally always considered a lesser publication, but that is another story.

  This was before ebay became the driving force in radio show sales (and everything else) in the later 1990's.

 I was especially attracted in "Discoveries" to a two page (or more) spread in each issue by a guy called "The Old Hippie". 

 Let me tell you, the Old Hippie had it all.  He was a real pioneer.  Way before anyone knew what radio shows even were let alone that they could be bought as rarities, he had the market cornered.

Most shows that he advertised were way beyond my budget but I drooled over those pages every issue and once in awhile I could afford one or two. 

 Now, I have attempted in my own humble way to take on the mantle of "The Old Hippie".  I have listed over 10,000 unique radio shows of all genres for you all to drool over, and most at prices, hopefully, that collectors can better afford!  I want to make available to collectors what I could not afford and especially in these days of higher prices and lesser availability.

Radio shows are harder and harder to find in quantity and the prices for the ones still out there just go higher and higher as they disappear from the market.  However, because of my large presence on eBay, I am always being contacted with selling offers, some of which I take advantage of and some I have to pass on because of the prices. I have found that by buying in bulk, even when many or most of the shows are lesser known but still amazing shows, I can offer the best prices on all titles.

 So, again, what is a radio show?  

 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  downloaded through iTunes or wherever, they have a unique presentation of their favorite artist or music not available anywhere else and always with dj comments which were 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 in the United States.

  Many have just a few still in circulation.  

Some of the more popular shows may have as few as a couple hundred of each week's show pressed but think about it.  A couple 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. 

 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 shows, is a rare vinyl that you will rarely find on eBay ever.

  It is called THE PSYCHEDELIC PSNACK

  and aired on the WESTWOOD ONE RADIO NETWORKS

IT WAS A DAILY SHOW AIRING MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY OR IN ITS ENTIRELY ON WEEKENDS.

EACH SEGMENT AVERAGED FROM 9 TO 12 MINUTES AND CONTAINED A THEME FOR EACH DAY AND A PSYCHEDELIC CLASSIC OR TWO RELATING TO THE THEME AND A RARE INTERVIEW FROM SOMEONE ASSOCIATED WITH ONE OF THE ARTISTS.

THE SHOW IS HOSTED BY DAVE HERMAN A LEGENDARY PSYCHEDELIC ROCK/FM DJ FROM THE EARLY DAYS.  I LISTENED TO HIM WHEN I COULD OVER THE ARMED FORCES RADIO NETWORK WHEN I WAS ON MY VIETNAM TOURS.  THE MUSIC AND HIS PRESENTATION HELPED GET ME THROUGH THOSE MEMORABLE, TO SAY THE LEAST.  YEARS.

It is a ONE OF A KIND SHOW.

  PROGRAM CONTENTS CAN BE SEEN IN THE LISTING PICTURES

 THE LP IS IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION.  

  IT IS VERY RARE.  I HAVE NOT SEEN IT OFTEN ON EBAY   THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO GET A RARE RADIO SHOW AT A GOOD PRICE WHEN THESE QUALITY LP SHOWS ARE QUICKLY DISAPPEARING INTO PEOPLES COLLECTIONS.

ESPECIALLY IF YOU COLLECT A CERTAIN ARTIST, HAVING A PRESENTATION OF THAT ARTIST ON DIFFERENT MODALITIES IS A RARE TREASURE

AND THE ARTIST INTERVIEWS AND COMMENTARY ARE PRICELESS

THIS SHOW AIRED THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 27, 1986

   THIS SPECIAL HAS BEEN PLAYED ONLY ONCE.  

  The music and presentation is outstanding.   IT IS EXTREMELY RARE AND ESPECIALLY FOR THE SUPERIOR SHAPE IT IS IN.

THERE MAY BE ONLY A FEW OF THESE LEFT ANYWHERE SINCE MOST STATIONS JUST THREW THEM AWAY AFTER AIRING SINCE THEY COULD NEVER BE AIRED AGAIN DUE TO THE TIME LIMITED COMMERCIAL CONTENT.  

ALSO THIS SHOW HAD LIMITED DISTRIBUTION SO THERE ARE LIKELY ONLY A FEW LEFT ANYWHERE.

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

       It is a great variety of the best of psychedelia along with interviews and information you probably did not know.      You will super great tunes and the best part is that you can hear them again and again, over and over,  whenever you want.   

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

  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  

Shipping is a flat $2.99 for all US buyers.  For my International friends, pay shipping for your heaviest item and all others ship for no extra charge except for multi lp shows which add only $8 extra for each show

  Good Luck and God Bless You.
