THESE ARE INTERVIEWS THAT YOU WILL NEVER HEAR ANYWHERE ELSE. IT IS PROBABLY THE MOST POPULAR RADIO SHOW DEVOTED TOTALLY TO 70's MUSIC THAT WAS EVER AVAILABLE TO RADIO STATIONS. AND, NOW IT CAN BE YOURS.HERE IS STEVE'S PERSONAL STORYI was born in Muskogee, Oklahoma. That’s what they tell me, I really don’t remember. I grew up in a small town about 20 miles away from Muskogee, called Haskell small town-2,000 people on a good day. My life was changed forever on Christmas Day 1955, when I got a small trap drum set, and my first record player. “Sixteen Tons” was the hit of the day, and I played that purple-labeled 45 until the grooves turned white. Went through three copies of “Rock Around The Clock” (still my favorite song-but I’m always looking for another!) and did I drive my parents crazy with Little Richard! Used to sit and watch the dot over the i on those Specialty records go ’round and ’round as I played them on my turntable-did that for hours-no wonder I’m just a little different.I loved music from the get go-all kinds. Mom was a member of the Columbia Record Club, so she’d order Broadway show tunes albums, my sister Nancy likes easy listening stuff, and was I ever surprised when my Dad came home one day with a couple of 45’s and a Bing Crosby 10″LP for me. And there was my cousin Billie Bess who had all the 45’s of the day – Gene Vincent’s “Race With The Devil” among them, and the Nessers who lived a block away filled in what my cousin didn’t have. I hadn’t even hit double digits, and I had more music than I could absorb. But I did. Every single note of it.My first “collection” was a stack of 78’s from Old Man Essex’s trading post in town. I loaded up an old radio in my radio flyer, marched downtown, and swapped the radio for the stack of 78’s he had. Tons of stuff – Ray Noble, Tommy Dorsey, Vaughn Monroe, Caruso, Harry Lauder, Gene Krupa – I was all over the road musically. And I wasn’t even 10 yet!I got a guitar when I was 12, which coincided with the folk craze, so it was Kingston Trio, Peter, Paul & Mary, and The New Christy Minstrels. Then the Beach Boys, Beatles, and everything that was played on Top 40 radio: KAKC from Tulsa during the day, and WLS/Chicago at night, with all the local Chicago hits. Sometimes I’d search out Wolfman Jack from XERB or Lou Kirby from WNOE in New Orleans, or some unknown DJ on WOKJ in Jackson, Mississippi. I loved it all! Even loved it when mom brought home Van Cliburn performing Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto. My grandmother Goddard had Tennessee Ernie Ford’s “Spirituals” album, so that was a big influence too.When I was 16 years old I got tired of sacking groceries, so I got a job at the radio station in Muskogee hey, you could do that in those days! And free records! Not the stuff you heard on the radio, but all the stuff you NEVER heard on the radio – stiffs that never got any airplay – except on my own turntable.After graduating from high school, I attended Oklahoma State University where I worked on both campus stations, and at WKY in Oklahoma City – all three stations at the same time! Talk about having to keep your call letters straight. I worked at a record store (my only working experience at a record store) one year, and Chuck (don’t remember his last name – but God bless him) turned me onto a lot of music, the best of which was Eric Anderson and his album “Blue River”. Graduating from Oklahoma State University (10 years before Garth – though I’m sure I played in my college band at a lot of places HE would play in a decade later!)I got a job in Dallas, where I met another huge influence – Bud Buschardt. I remember meeting him at WFAA and he asked me if I wanted to see what 5,000 records looked like – sure, I said. It was there I discovered a record collector. They were all in specially built shelves, in green sleeves – all arranged chronologically – and Bud had a $50 yellow paperback book by some guy named Joel Whitburn. I was hooked. No more hodge podge, I got my organized! And in 1976, I though it might be fun to collect every chart record for the bi-centennial. But did I stop there? Nope, I kept going, through the early 90’s, and went back to pick up all the chart records that dated back to the first Hot 100 chart in 1955.And during the course of my radio career, I’ve had the opportunity to collect a lot of memorabilia and interview a lot of people. Lots of rare tapes, too but what to do with all this stuff?! Over 90,000 records, not to mention CD’s, and miles and miles and miles of taped interviews and studio outtakes. Seems a shame just to organize it, categorize it, put it on a shelf, and forget about it. Thanks to Goddard’s Gold, I can share my lifetime of collecting with you. You don’t need to search it out, clean it up, organize it, categorize it, and build shelves for it, you just need to listen. That’s a pretty good deal!This show aired on April 15, 2006 and was show #06-16SO HERE ARE THE BIG QUESTIONS IF YOU DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT RADIO SHOWS: 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. First allow me tell you my own 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 collected 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 especially in these days of higher prices and lesser availability.Radio shows are harder and harder to find in quantity and the prices for the ones still out there just go higher and higher as they disappear from the market. However, because of my large presence on eBay, I am always being contacted with selling offers, some of which I take advantage of and some I have to pass on because of the prices. I have found that by buying in bulk, even when many or most of the shows are lesser known but still amazing shows, I can offer the best prices on all titles. So, again, what is a radio show? 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 mornings, afternoons or evenings or less often on weekdays 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, Bob Kingsley 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 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 175 Metro markets. Smaller markets had to take the satellite feed once it became available. So at the very most there were only 175 copies of each show EVER. How do you compute rareness. 175 copies for the whole United States market and 25 years ago or more means that could possibly not be ANY more of these shows and at the very most there are 175 . 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 worked at one as an oldies dj for over seven glorious years!) 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 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. Thankfully enough radio stations know of my offerings and come to me when they have shows to sell. But it is not like the old days before shows no longer came on cd. 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. With the postal service's recent huge rate hikes, my shipping rates remained exactly the same as they were. And, I have one of the biggest radio show libraries in the world consisting of way over fifteen 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! 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. 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. 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 in themes and great announcing that makes it so entertaining. As well, it is a piece of radio and music history. 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. and International buyers, I charge only shipping on the first cd or single lp show you buy so the more you buy the more money you will save. (International buyers pay for the first multi lp show and an additional $8 for each multi lp show to help with the excessive shipping costs for overseas shipments. Otherwise all items ship for no extra charge) Good Luck and God Bless You
