Description
Radio shows were first syndicated on reel to reel tape, later on LP stereo discs, then CD's and now digitally. Collectors can no longer get their hands on this quality material so the surviving shows that are available will keep going up and up in value. These radio shows were never intended for public use & most were destroyed or returned to the manufacturer after use, so they're very difficult to find.
Founded in 1976 by Norman Pattiz, the original Westwood One was one of the largest producers and distributors of radio programming in the United States. Based in New York City, they broadcast entertainment, news, weather, sports, talk, and traffic programming to about 7,700 radio stations across the United States.
In January 1981 Pattiz started recording live concerts for broadcast and became a leader in live broadcasts and concert recordings for radio until May, 2011. Westwood One was most notable for its coverage of live events, and on-location recording of concerts allowing them to provide live music to fans around the country. In October of 2011 Westwood One merged with Triton Media Group to form the current Westwood One.
Broadcast in October / November, 1984, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - A History of the Beatles, 1963 - 1970 dives deep into the Westwood One archive vaults of interviews, recordings, and other live footage to tell the story of The Beatles. This 12 LP, nine hour Radio Special features rare interviews and studio sessions. The show also explores all aspects of their lives including relationships both professional and personal - and takes a reflective look at the band and the music, that defined a generation, through both their own eyes, and through eyes of the "insiders" who were there. Years before Westwood One began broadcasting "The Lost Lennon Tapes" or "The Beatle Years", This show was considered the ultimate and most comprehensive History of the Beatles ever broadcast. This show is a "must have" if you are a collector of Beatles Radio shows!
