GREETINGS FELLOW COLLECTORS OF GREAT MUSIC AND RARE CLASSIC RADIO SHOWS! PLEASE DON'T FORGET MY SPECIAL OFFER OF A TWENTY PERCENT DISCOUNT WHEN YOU BUY FIVE ITEMS OR MORE AT ONE TIME FROM MY STORE. IT IS THE LEAST I CAN DO FOR ALL MY FRIENDS WHO, LIKE I , ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR A GREAT DEAL


HERE IS ANOTHER DICK CLARK SPECIAL EDITION RADIO SHOW FOR YOU.


AND FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE RARE AND AMAZING HOBBY OF COLLECTING RADIO SHOWS, 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 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 itself was only ever sent to the top Metro markets. Smaller markets had to take the satellite feed once it became available. So at the very most there were a limited number of each show EVER. How do you compute rareness. How many survived as did the ones I have is anyone's guess.


This is because most stations just threw these away after network broadcast since they could not be aired again because of the dated commercial content and most stations had limited storage space. (Believe me I know I work at one!)


So it is likely that very few still exist and 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 radio station contact for these shows is out of shows and I am at the mercy of finding a good deal here and there but never from a regular source and maybe not from a radio station but other collectors.


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 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 have decreased.


And, I have one of the biggest radio show libraries in the world consisting of over ten thousand unique 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 music radio.


And every one you buy is an original, not a copy, not a remake - all are limited editions in the hundreds at most and most, like this special show, much less. Once you get hooked, like me, it is a love affair for life! Welcome to the Club!


My prices are guaranteed to save! Others say they are the lowest for radio shows on the internet - compare shop. Add their prices and shipping costs and compare with mine. You WILL save and the more you buy the more you save. And check my feedback. That says it all. I will make you happy.


THIS SHOW IS TITLED


DICK CLARK'S LEGEND OF ROCK AND ROLL


IT FEATURES COMPLETE SETS, SOME MULTIPLE SETS, OF ROCK'S LEGENDS AND AMAZING INTERVIEWS WITH ROCK'S GREATEST INCLUDING STEVIE WONDER, RINGO STARR, JOHN LENNON, GORDON STOKER, JERRY ALLISON, ROY ORBISON, BRIAN WILSON, FRANKIE VALLI AND DIANA ROSS.


IT AIRED ON THE UNITED STATIONS BROADCASTING NETWORKS ON THE WEEKEND OF AUGUST 3, 1990


IT COMES ON THREE LPs IN NEW CONDITION, PLAYED ONLY THE DATE OF NETWORK BROADCAST AND FEATURES THE ONE AND ONLY DICK CLARK ALONG WITH FEATURED ARTISTS AND MANY RARE AND EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEWS FROM DICK'S MANY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE.


IT STOOD OUT AS UNIQUE BECAUSE IT FEATURED ONE OF ROCK'S MOST POPULAR AND WELL KNOWN DJ'S ALONG WITH SPECIAL FEATURES AND RARE INTERVIEWS.


THESE SPECIAL BROADCASTS WERE ESPECIALLY RARE BECAUSE THEY WERE ONE OF A KIND AND AIRED ONCE


This show comes with its cue sheets as seen in the listing pictures.


THIS SHOW IS IN LIKE NEW CONDITION


Of course, I ship them to you in a special mailer to ensure they will be as fresh and good looking when they come to your home as they are now.


I am proud to offer you an opportunity to have some of these rare shows for your own collection.


Please remember, this is the genuine original show that was sent to the radio station for airing. It is NOT an unauthorized copy but the Real McCoy!!! I personally guarantee that every radio show that I sell is the original show sent to stations.


Remember that this and all the radio music shows that you see on eBay 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 and music history. You just aren't going to find these shows around very much longer as everything is now digitized and downloaded for play and shows are no longer sent out on CD's. 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.


It is a great show and would be a valuable addition to your collection.


As always, for U.S. buyers, I charge only shipping on the first show you buy so the more you buy the more money you will save. For my international friends, I will again only charge shipping on the first show you purchase and all others ship for free.


Good Luck and God Bless You.
