THIS PRESENTATION WAS A YEAR END SPECIAL THAT AIRED OVER THE LAST WEEKEND OF THE YEAR AND FEATURED THE TOP NEWS, ENTERTAINMENT AND MUSIC EVENTS OF THE YEAR OVER A TWO HOUR SPECIAL EDITION.
EACH SEGMENT OF THE SHOW INCLUDES THE ACTUAL VOICES OF THE PEOPLE AND EVENTS THAT MADE THE TOP NEWS OF THE YEAR IN AN ENTERTAINING AND INFORMATIVE PRESENTATION
THE SHOW WILL BRING BACK ALL THE MEMORIES OF THIS YEAR OF YOUR LIFE.
THESE WERE MOST RARE BECAUSE IT WAS A ONE TIME ONLY SHOW AS OPPOSED TO A SHOW THAT AIRED WEEKLY AS MOST SYNDICATED SHOWS WERE.
IT WAS RELEASED FOR AIRING THE WEEK OF DECEMBER 29, 1989
These shows are true Americana and history
SO HERE ARE THE BIG QUESTIONS:
WHAT ARE THESE SPECIAL RADIO SHOWS ALL ABOUT?
WHY COLLECT THEM?
WHERE DO THEY COME FROM?
Well, those are good questions, especially if you have never known of them.
They were provided to radio stations who agreed to air the program. In most cases, they were provided on a barter arrangement which meant that the station aired the national commercials on the show and then sold local advertising for the provided breaks from the national broadcast.
This makes them especially rare since they were only pressed in the low hundreds, solely for radio station use. More were pressed for the most popular national shows and many less for others. Some had limited distribution of 10 stations or less.
Many or most were destroyed after airing because they could never be aired again due to the time limited national commercials and the limited storage space available at most radio stations. Believe me I know; I worked at one for over seven glorious years, the best years of my life!
These shows become rarer and rarer every day because the people who buy them hold on to them. 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 libraries in the world consisting of over fifteen 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.
And every one you buy is an original, not a copy, not a remake - all limited editions, perhaps one hundred or two hundred in total.
SO WHY SHOULD YOU WANT ONE?
FIRST OF ALL THEY ARE RARE AND WILL INCREASE IN VALUE.
SECONDLY, IT IS A WAY TO HAVE A UNIQUE PRESENTATION BY YOUR FAVORITE ARTIST IN A LP FORM THAT IS UNAVAILABLE.
I am pleased to offer these great and rare shows to you.
It is not only the fabric of America but a piece of Americana that most people do not even know about. It is a piece of radio history you are getting with these shows. 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.
Remember that these shows are disappearing from the market because they are no longer available.
The lp radio shows have not been made since around 1991, much earlier for some shows, and they have the truest fidelity as you know if you are an audiophile. The CD shows are now also unavailable as shows are now only in digital downloads. So, the days of unique shows not copied from the soundboard of a station and sold as such are gone. This is all there is and will be.
It is said that collecting and selling radio shows is a vanishing hobby as the shows quickly disappear. Well, I still sell Betamax machines and they sell quickly whenever I list them so that is not true, but it is true that they will become rarer and harder to find so grab them now while the prices are still reasonable.
As always, I charge only shipping on the first show you buy for U.S. buyers and for my international friends pay shipping for the heaviest show and all others ship for no extra charge except for multi lp sets which add only $8 a show to the shipping cost, still a huge savings, so the more you buy the more money you will save.
Good Luck and God Bless You.
