Richard Diamond Old Time Radio Shows OTR MP3 On DVD-R 118 Episodes
Product information Richard Diamond, Private Detective came to NBC in 1949. Diamond was a slick, sophisticated detective, with a sharp tongue for folks who needed it. Diamond enjoyed the detective life, but not as much as entertaining his girl, Helen Asher. After each show, he would croon a number to his Park Avenue sweetheart. Mr. Powell, a former song and dance man, was perfect for the role. He added an extra dimension to the 40's hokey private eye drama.Diamond was a rough gumshoe that would often get knocked on the head with a revolver butt or other items. His counterpart on the police force was Lt. Levinson who often accepted Diamond's help reluctantly. Levinson would claim to get stomach trouble whenever Diamond would call him and would take bicarbonate to settle his aching stomach. Although they always seem at odds with each other, Diamond and Levinson were best friends. The plot theme remained fairly constant throughout the entire run of the show, Diamond getting beat up and solving a tough murder case with the support of the police department. Remarkably, for all the gun fights, Diamond never got shot. And for all his bravado, he had a serious case of vertigo.Helen Asher was portrayed by Virginia Gregg, who also played the part of Brooksie on Let George Do It and Betty Lewis on Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar. Blake Edwards wrote the early shows and also directed a few. Music was composed by David Baskerville and later by Frank Wirth.In January of 1951, the series moved to ABC under the full sponsorship of Camel cigarettes. Then in May of 1953, the series moved to CBS but all shows were repeats from the 1950-51 Rexall sponsored season on NBC.Richard Diamond was one of the radio shows which successfully moved to television with David Janssen, later of The Fugitive fame, in the title role of Richard Diamond. The opening scene of the television show often featured the long lovely legs of Mary Tyler Moore, who went on to fame in The Dick Van Dyke Show and The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Mary was replaced on the Richard Diamond show when it became known that she owned the mystery legs.Includes 118 Episodes!Episodes On This CD:00.00.00 Convict Louise Spence Escapes.mp349.05.22 The Stolen Purse.mp349.05.29 Betty Moran Case.mp349.06.19 Fred Sears Murder Case.mp349.06.26 Tomwaxmanmurdered.mp349.07.02 Hat Without A Body.mp349.07.16 The Man Who Hated Women.mp349.08.06 Lynn Knight Wants Protection.mp349.08.20 Tom Cook Accused Of Murder.mp349.08.27 Eddie Garrett Case.mp349.09.03 Mrs William Baker Klepto.mp349.09.10 The Van Dyke Seance Case.mp349.09.17 Jerome J Jerome, Bodyguard.mp349.10.08 The Leland Gibson Murder.mp349.10.15 The Counterfit Racket.mp349.10.22 Rene Benet Case.mp349.11.05 The Singing Critic.mp349.11.19 Ep031 Leon Jacoby Case.mp349.11.26 Ep032 Carter Loses Memory.mp349.12.10 Julia Bates - Haunted House.mp349.12.17 Yo Yo - John Blackwell Case.mp349.12.24 A Contempory Christmas Carol.mp350.01.15 Mr Victor's Daughter.mp350.01.22 Ep040 Sees Dead Man.mp350.02.19 Ep044 Jewel Thief.mp350.02.26 Cop Killer.mp350.03.05 Louis Spence Mad Bomber.mp350.03.12 The Joyce Wallace Case.mp350.03.19 Privateeyetest.mp350.03.26 The Missing Negative.mp350.04.05 The Ivory Statue.mp350.04.26 Ep053 Ralph Baxter Case.mp350.06.28 Ep056 Mary Billman Killed.mp350.07.05 Ep057 Mike Burton Murder.mp350.07.26 Ep059 Martha Campbell Kidnapped.mp350.08.02 Ep060 Max Farmer Boxer.mp350.08.09 Edna Wolf Case.mp350.08.16 Ep062 The Circus Case.mp350.08.23 Ep063 Insurance Matter.mp350.08.30 Ep064 Big Foot Grafton.mp350.09.13 The George Lexington Murder.mp350.09.20 Death In The Hair Salon.mp350.10.04 Pete Rocco Breaks Jail.mp351.01.26 The Rollins Case.mp351.02.02 The Caspery Case.mp351.02.09 The Dark Blue Serge Suit.mp351.02.16 The Gray Man.mp351.02.23 The Lady In Distress.mp351.03.09 Thebutchershop.mp351.11.02 The Bowery Case.mp351.12.07 Ep114 Brown Envelope Case.mp351.12.21 Ep116 A Christmas Carol.mp352.01.11 White Cow Case.mp352.01.18 The Simpson Case.mp352.01.18 Thesimpsoncase.mp352.01.25 Al Brenner's Case.mp352.02.01 Thegaribaldicase.mp352.02.08 Eddie Burke.mp352.03.14 Thedixoncase.mp352.03.21 Thehankburton.mp352.03.28 Mr Walkers Problem.mp352.04.04 Ep131 Enigma Of Big Ed.mp352.08.09 Ice Pick Murder.mp353.05.31 Ep144 William Holland Case.mp353.06.21 Ep146 Missing Night Watchman.mp353.07.26 The Mona Lisa Murder.mp353.08.16 Ep154 Oklahoma Cowboy.mp353.08.23 Ep155 California Murder.mp353.08.30 .ep156 Big Foot Grafton Case.mp353.11.22 8 O'clock Killer.mp3NOTES:THIS IS NOT AN AUDIO CD/DVD!This CD/DVD has been recorded in the MP3 file format and will play on your computer or SOME DVD (DVD-R Disks Only) or CD players (CD-R Disks Only) that supports MP3 files.
