THIS SHOW IS CALLED 

SOLID GOLD ALL TIME FAVORITES COUNTDOWN

It was a first class show from the packaging to the beauty of the lp's, to the cue sheets, to the content of the shows themselves. 

It comes in a special box which is in great condition along with the cue sheets in great condition.

  This show was absolutely unbelievable and now you can own it for yourself.  It came as pictured  with four beautifully decorated LP's . 

   The July 4 Special  was distributed by The United Stations Radio Networks. 

  THE SHOW COUNTS DOWN THE TOP 78 OLDIES OF ALL TIME OVER FIVE HOURS

 These shows are very rare because they were seasonal specials.  The interviews are great and the music choice, dj stories and presentation, and the special features are perfect.    

  This show aired on JULY 4TH WEEKEND, JUNE 30, 1989. 

Even the national commercials that we hated all those years ago now bring back fond memories.  On this special show you will hear from Dr Pepper, General Mills Brownie Sundae, Dominos Pizza, Frito/Lays, Orion Pictures 'Great Balls of Fire', Kodak Batteries ,Goodyear Tires,Ruffles Chips,and more 

SHOW CONTENTS CAN BE SEEN IN THE LISTING PICTURES.

SO, LPs AND CDs  RADIO SHOWS?   READ ON!

 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.

Let first me tell you my 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 in these days of higher prices and lesser availability.

I have several resources still available to me and I am always receptive to sellers who contact me with bulk amounts of shows for sale.  By buying in bulk, even when many are the lesser popular shows, I can offer the best prices in all titles

 So, again, what is a radio show?  

 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 morning, afternoons or nights and less often 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 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 affiliate stations in the United States.  

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 is about as rare as rare can be. 

AND, Many stations just tossed them away after airing since they could not be played again due to the dated commercial content.

So there may be only a few in existence.

 That makes them increasingly hard to find. 

 They were first distributed on reel to reel tape or 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 .  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 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 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! 

  These special shows are priced a little higher , but none of the other shows give you as much.  And when you come down to it, find a rare quality show like this anywhere else for less!  

 This is the original show sent 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. 

   You are truly buying a  show that will only increase in value and I am selling them at a price very close to what I paid for it. 

 The show also comes with its original national commercials and none of the boring local commercials everyone hates!  

  Some people buy these shows for their commercial collections but if you don't like them, just skip to the next track and they are gone! But, I guarantee that you will find that these commercials from 33 years ago will bring back memories too 

 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. 

 Good Luck and may God richly bless you and keep you safe and well always and forever.
