PLEASE READ ON FOR A DESCRIPTION OF THIS SHOW AND SERIES AND THEN PLEASE CONTINUE FOR MY EVER SO HUMBLE OFFERING WHICH I CALL RADIO SHOW 101. In the 1980's and into the 90's there was a great artist focused show called ROCK CHRONICLES. It aired weekly on the WESTWOOD ONE Radio Network. It was a very special series. Each show in the limited edition series was an hour in length but was pressed on two lps to give the greatest fidelity, greater than most any other radio show and cd show.Each show featured interviews - and not just sound bites but extensive interview time - with the artists throughout the show, one to each show segment of approximately 15 minutes THIS SHOW AIRED ON AUGUST 7, 1989.THE SHOW HOST WAS VETERAN DJ DAVE HERMAN AND STEVE DOWNES. I HEARD DAVE HERMAN WHEN I WAS IN VIETNAM AND HIS SHOWS WERE AIRED ON THE ARMED FORCES RADIO NETWORK. HE WAS A LEGEND. AND STEVE DOWNES WENT ON TO LATER FAME AS HOST OF THE TWO HOUR WEEKLY CLASSIC ROCK SHOW, 'THE CLASSICS'It is a SUPER show. No show that ever aired had the in depth interviews that you will hear on ROCK CHRONICLESHere's an oddity about this show. In the earliest years of the show, vintage 1985, the cue sheets most often only contained the show theme, the show timing of the show segments, and the commercials. They did not present the content of each show segment as did most radio shows. In later years, Westwood One finally added the music for each segment. For shows that do not contain the segment information, I have included a typed page to show you the contents. I have never known why, for such a unique and in depth show, as this one was, why the cue sheets were not more explicit. But, it's another unique part of radio shows OK, now, what exactly is a radio show. 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 11,000 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 often 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, radio shows, FIRST,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 mornings, afternoons or evenings or less often during weekdays 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 from 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 the affiliate stations for each show. So there were always 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. MOST STATIONS just threw them away after airing since they were dated because of their commercial content and couldn't be rebroadcast so there are likely only a few left. This in fact may just be the last. There is just no way of telling.This was because most radio station have limited storage space and with so many broadcast shows coming in every week, there was just no place to store them. Believe me, I know; I worked as an on air personality at one for over seven glorious years. SO, they are increasingly hard to find. They were first distributed on reel to reel tape or 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 prices just keep going up and up. The shows that you get now and hold on to will never decrease in value and only increase. That is because there are just no more to go around. 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 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. 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!
