WELCOME TO EVERYONE TO KEITH'S KOLLECTABLES, ONE OF EBAY'S PREMIERE SELLERS OF RARE RADIO SHOWS OF EVERY GENRE.

PLEASE REMEMBER MY FELLOW COLLECTOR FRIENDS, IF YOU PURCHASE FIVE OR MORE ITEMS AT ONE TIME FROM MY STORE, EBAY WILL DISCOUNT YOUR ENTIRE ORDER BY 20%.  

AND IF YOU ENJOY THE TOP  HITS OF THE EARLY ROCK AND ROLL ERA ALONG WITH COUNTLESS RARE INTERVIEWS AND SPECIAL FEATURES, YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE!

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 presentations 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 many as a hundred of each week's show that survived but think about it.  A 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.  

Many stations just tossed them away after airing because the storage space at most  radio stations was very limited.  (Believe me I know - I work at just such a station!)

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 completely out of radio shows so I am 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 thousands of 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 are limited editions in the hundreds at most and most much less. Once you get hooked, like me, it is a love affair for life!  Welcome to the Club! 

        IF YOU LIKE RADIO SHOWS FEATURING THE BEST MUSIC OF ALL TIME IN EVERY GENRE IMAGINABLE, YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE. 

    SO, ON WITH THE SHOW!!!!   Picture yourself back in the late 50's ,60's, or 70's.  You were glued to your transistor radio listening to the top 40 presented by your local radio station.  You had that radio glued to your ear or connected with the little earphone jack that immediately broke.  Your local dj was great.  He knew the music.  He had the gift of talking which rarely occurs anymore.  You loved the presentation of the music as much as the sounds.  You liked the station jingles. 

 And on weekends when the local dj's had off, you listened to either taped shows they did during the week to be played on the weekend or a syndicated radio show featuring one of the greats.

  It was the golden age of country and rock.  Music was king and the dj's were just as popular.  You can relive those days whether you grew up then or just wish you had on only a handful of oldies shows.  THIS IS ONE OF THEM. 

   Here is another great show for you from  the ONE OF THE BEST ROCK SHOWS OF ALL TIME, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A BEATLES FAN,  SCOTT MUNI'S TICKET TO RIDE - A WEEKLY TRIBUTE TO THE BEATLES .  AND ON BEAUTIFUL VIRGIN VINYL FROM 30 YEARS AGO.

  THIS IS A NEW OFFERING TO YOU AND IS ONE OF THE OVERALL RAREST AND MOST SOUGHT AFTER SERIES EVER SYNDICATED TO RADIO. 

 Each week on this seminal tribute to the Beatles was a tribute presented by one of the people who knew the Beatles best over their too brief years together, Scott Muni.    

 Scott featured a specific theme or guest who talked about The Beatles' influence on their life and their music. 

 He also included  weekly segments including "This Week in Beatles' History", a cover version of a Beatles' song and a Beatles' "Question of the Week" which was answered later in the hour. 

The show airs on the DIR BROADCASTING CORPORATION  and aired  weekly for one hour. 

 It comes on  TWO LP's in new condition looking like it never was played.   The show was an hour in length.    

IT WAS ON TWO LP'S FOR EXTRA FIDELITY.  MOST RADIO SHOWS SOUND GREAT WITH A HALF HOUR ON EACH SIDE.  THIS ONE SOUNDS EVEN BETTER!

 EACH  SHOW IS UNIQUE AND SPECIAL WITH A DIFFERENT SLANT ON THE BEATLES AND THEIR HISTORY TOGETHER. 

 IT IS A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR YOUR FAVORITE  BEATLES MUSIC AND INTERVIEWS AND PRESENTED IN A FASHION THAT YOU CANNOT FIND ANYWHERE ELSE.  

 THAT IS THE JOY OF RADIO SHOWS.

It is a great variety of music along with interviews and facts.   You will enjoy great music 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 on the artists and songs and of course the priceless 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. 

 IT IS AMERICANA!

  MOST PEOPLE DON'T EVEN KNOW THESE SHOWS EXIST AND SO DON'T KNOW WHAT TREASURES THEY ARE.  

  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    

  Good Luck and God Bless You.
