Description: HI GUYS AND GALS! DO YOU ENJOY POP MUSIC STANDARDS FROM THE 40'S TO THE 80'S? AND, IN PRISTINE DIGITAL BROADCAST QUALITY TRACKS DESIGNED EXCLUSIVELY AND SOLELY FOR RADIO STATIONS AND PRESSED DIGITALLY FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTERS?WELCOME EVERYONE TO KEITH'S KOLLECTABLES, ONE OF EBAY'S PREMIERE BUYERS AND SELLERS OF PRISTINE RARE RADIO SHOWS OF ALL GENRES ALONG WITH OTHER GREAT ITEMS OF AMERICANA AND PLEASE REMEMBER MY ONGOING OFFER TO YOU: WHEN YOU BUY FIVE OR MORE ITEMS FROM MY STORE AT ONE TIME, YOUR TOTAL WILL BE REDUCED BY 20%, A NICE DISCOUNT FOR COLLECTORS WHO FIND MANY DIFFERENT SHOWS THAT THEY WANTALSO IF YOU COMBINE THE ABOVE DISCOUNT WITH ONE OR MORE OF THE HALF PRICE OR REDUCED PRICE BARGAINS ADDED TO ALMOST DAILY WHICH YOU CAN FIND ON KEITH'S KOLLECTABLES HOME PAGE TAB, YOU WILL SAVE EVEN MORE....MUCH MORE.RADIO STATIONS BY NECESSITY, ESPECIALLY FM STATIONS BUT ALSO AM STATIONS, UTILIZE ONLY BROADCAST QUALITY MUSIC FOR AIRING ON THEIR STATIONS.THERE ARE ONLY A FEW COMPANIES IN THE WORLD WITH THE EXPERTISE AND REPUTATION TO PROVIDE TOP QUALITY, BROADCAST READY, MUSIC.THESE COMPANIES INCLUDE CENTURY 21, SWAITEK, BONNEVILLE, TM CENTURY, HALLAND, BROADCAST PROGRAMMING AND A FEW OTHERS.THE CD's WERE MOST OFTEN ISSUED MONTHLY TO SUBSCRIBING RADIO STATIONS AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $50 FOR A FOUR WEEK MONTH. OF COURSE THIS WAS 20 OR MORE YEARS AGO AND ARE NO LONGER RELEASED SO THEY ARE WORTH A GREAT DEAL MORE TODAY. THIS IS ALSO BECAUSE ONLY EXTREMELY LIMITED NUMBERS OF EACH MONTHLY CD WERE PRESSED - JUST ENOUGH FOR SUBSCRIBING STATIONS - SO THEY ARE EXTREMELY RARE. IN ADDITION MANY HAVE VANISHED FOREVER SINCE OVER THE YEARS, STATIONS WENT DARK,CHANGED OWNERSHIP,MOVED, ETC. AND IN THE PROCESS, THEY WERE LOST, OR MOST OFTEN JUST THROWN AWAY.SO, PRISTINE QUALITY MONTHLY ISSUES ARE VERY HARD TO FIND.BUT, THOSE THAT REMAINED IN RADIO STATION LIBRARIES, OFTEN WERE PLAYED EXACTLY ONE TIME WHEN THEY WERE DOWNLOADED TO THE STATION COMPUTER. THEY WOULD THEN BE STORED IN CASE THEY WERE EVER NEEDED AGAIN WHICH WOULD BE UNLIKELY.EACH CD EVEN GAVE WHAT WAS CALLED THE 'HOOK' FOR EVERY SONG. THE HOOK WAS THE AMOUNT OF TIME BETWEEN THE START OF THE SONG AND WHEN THE VOCAL PART BEGAN SO THAT THE DJ COULD TELL HOW LONG HE OR SHE COULD TALK OVER THE INTRO AND NOT TALK INTO THE VOCAL. IN THE OLD DAYS, BEFORE COMPUTERS, DJS HAD TO KNOW THROUGH EXPERIENCE HOW LONG THEY HAD BEFORE THE VOCAL BEGAN SO THEY WOULD NOT TALK OVER THE VOCAL WHICH WAS A HUGE NO NO IF YOY WERE A DJ! IN THE DIGITAL ERA, THE SECONDS BEFORE THE VOCAL BEGAN WAS PROVIDED TO THE DJ. I AM SURE THE DJ'S OF THE 50'S THROUGH THE 80'S TURNED UP THEIR NOSES WHEN THIS INFORMATION WAS MADE AVAILABLE!!!THIS ONE IS AN EXAMPLE OF THESE RARE CD's. I WAS ABLE TO GET THEM FROM A RADIO STATION GENERAL MANAGER WHO HAD STORED THEM AND LATER WAS ALLOWED TO KEEP THEM SINCE THEY WERE NO LONGER NEEDED BY THE STATION. THESE PROBABLY WERE NEVER PLAYED PAST THAT FIRST TIME THEY WERE DOWNLOADED TO THE RADIO STATION COMPUTER SYSTEM.THIS SERIES COMES FROM RADIO DeLUXE BROADCASTING SERVICES AND WAS CALLED 'STANDARDS OF EXCELLENCE' WHICH COVERED THE BROADCAST LIBRARY OF POP AND STANDARDS HITS OF THE LATE 40'S AND EARLY TO THE LATE 60'SEACH CD CONTAINS 20 OR MORE TRACKS, THIS CD WAS SHOW #10205 AND WAS RELEASED TO SUBSCRIBING STATIONS IN MAY, 2002Aside from being an example of a pristine production, it is also 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 music is 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. As always, for U.S. and International buyers, I charge only shipping on the first show you buy so the more you buy the more money you will save. This is how I try to counter the terribly high shipping prices that recently took a huge hike. Good Luck and may God richly bless you always and forever.
