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 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.  

Also, many if not most stations tossed them away after airing since the shows could not be aired again due to the time oriented commercial content

So there may be fairly few left.

Which makes them 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  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 now completely out of 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 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!  

  Here is another great show for you from  the ONE OF THE BEST COUNTDOWN SERIES  ROCK SHOWS OF ALL TIME, THE WEEKLY MUSIC MAGAZINE WITH CHARLIE VAN DYKE  AND ON BEAUTIFUL VIRGIN VINYL FROM 35 YEARS AGO. 

IT IS A SUPER RARE SERIES AND ONE YOU WILL TREASURE AND CHERISH

Charlie Van Dyke (born Charles Leo Steinle, on December 19, 1947) is a former radio disc jockey who is best known for the voice work he has done for radio and television stations and is recognized by his deep, booming voice.

Originally from Dallas, Van Dyke was working in major-market  radio, at local powerhouse KLIF, by the time he was 19. BILL DRAKE brought Van Dyke to his stable of stations, first in morning drive  in 1968 and 1969, then to KFRC where he did MORNING DRIVE in 1969 and 1970. Van Dyke later did mid-days and, eventually, mornings and was program director 

Charlie Van Dyke's spoken-word record "The Flag" charted nationally, peaking at #116 in the  survey of June–July 1976. He appears as the narrator on Albert Brooks second comedy album, A Star Is Bought (1975), which includes "Phone Call to Americans," a parody of patriotic spoken-word records.

Throughout most of the 1980s, he was a frequent guest host on  AT40. He sub-hosted on 31 shows in all, including the first regular episodes from 1983 to 1988.

In the 1990s, he worked in radio from his  home. From 1998 to 2000, Van Dyke succeeded the late Robert W Morgan in morning drive . He continues to work as a voice talent for television and radio stations

Van Dyke presently serves as the staff announcer on TV 

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

 IF YOU ARE A FAN OF THE SHOW OR OF ITS FORMAT OR OF A PARTICULAR ARTIST THIS SHOW IS FOR YOU.   THESE SHOWS CAME DIRECTLY FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER OF A MID POWER FM WHO HAS STORED THEM AFTER THEIR SINGLE BROADCAST  HE AND I ARE FRIENDS SO WHEN HE WAS READY TO LET THEM GO, I WAS FIRST IN LINE TO GET THEM.  HE IS USING THE MONEY FROM THE SELLING OF THESE SHOWS TO UPGRADE HIS STATION EQUIPMENT.    IT IS THE FIND OF A LIFETIME.

  EACH SHOW HAS BEEN PLAYED ONLY ONCE AND THEN STORED.  IT COMES WITH CUE SHEETS.  

  I will be listing my special collection of these shows over the next few days so make sure to keep looking for them.  These are my only remaining shows of the series and I don't think I will probably be able to get more.  

Quality radio shows are getting harder and harder to come across now that they are all transmitted to stations digitally and not on CD.

  What is out there now is all there is and most collectors are holding on to theirs as they grow in value and who would want to give up one of these shows anyway?  If you like classic rock song after song, this is the show for you.  The energy is over the top and the show goes by in an instant.  

  The show airs on the  RKO RADIO NETWORKS  and aired  FOR THREE HOURS WEEKLY ON FOUR lp's for best fidelity. 

It oddly only aired for about a year so these shows are priceless.

IT CONTAINED NOT ONLY THE TOP 30 POP SONGS OF THE WEEK BUT MANY EXTRAS AND MANY INTERVIEWS WITH THE BIGGEST HIT MAKERS IN MUSIC.  

  They were  played only on the air date and then saved and stored by the station general manager who eventually sold them to me. 

 THESE THREE SPECIAL SHOWS ARE FOR ALBERTO.  IF YOU SEE THIS AND WANT A SPECIAL AUCTION FOR YOURSELF, JUST EMAIL ME THROUGH THE EBAY SYSTEM AND LET ME KNOW!      

                    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.

 Stations could use the show anytime during that weekend  and then it ended up available to us all to enjoy.  This show and all the shows in the WEEKLY NEWS MAGAZINE WITH CHARLIE VAN DYKE SERIES are ultra rare.  In fact, when they are on eBay at all, they tend to get bought quickly. 

 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 although these concert presentations are very rare and often cannot 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. 

MOST SELLERS PUT THESE SHOWS UP AS AN AUCTION AND WAIT FOR BIDDING WARS.  MY SHOWS ARE ALWAYS A BUY IT NOW AT A REASONABLE PRICE SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY MORE THAN YOU NEED TO TO GET THE SHOW THAT YOU WANT. SOME OF THESE SHOWS GO FOR UNBELIEVABLE PRICES.   I WILL NEVER TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A FELLOW COLLECTOR.   I COLLECT TOO AND LIKE TO GET A REASONABLE DEAL.  THAT'S WHY I OFFER THE SAME TO YOU.      

   It is a great show and would be a valuable addition to your collection. 

 As always, for U.S. and international collectors, I charge only shipping on the first show you buy so the more you buy the more money you will save.  (International buyers purchasing multi set shows pay only an additional $8 a show)

  Good Luck and God Bless You.
