Entertainment From The Past

This may have been posted before, but if it was, it was a long time ago. Here are nearly all of the radio shows from some of our past. I'm not old enough to remember these but I'm sure that JerryD, treefarmer and Carrmillus will.

I just spent some time listening to a couple of episodes of one of my favorites, Have Gun Will Travel. Speaking of Paladin, you forgot to mention Ray.

There are a couple more sources for old time radio I have bookmarked.

That's pretty neat, TJ! Out of the listings on that site, about a dozen I recognized by name and when I clicked on them, I knew for sure, the old music and announcers were still in my memory! 1st one I opened was Amos and Andy, then I remembered the names Kingfish and Lawyer Calhoun. I guess we are getting old .

Where are the Hartz Mountain Singing Canaries ?

That was a Sunday morning show that the radio in Dad's old '46 Pontiac could pick up in the Jersey pine barrens on the way to the shore.

That's pretty interesting Phil, Amos 'n' Andy was the first one I listened to also.

Could that show have been a local show, Fran? I think most all the shows provided by those web sites were syndicated.

Thanks, Jerry. I am really going to show my age, which is 73 as of last Saturday. Every Saturday morning before I got into baseball, I would listen to Big John and Sparky and lo and behold, it is on the list. Wow, what a trip for me.

On remembering those old radio shows. There's got to be some (expletive deleted) advantage to getting this (expletive deleted) old.

I listened to a couple of Have Gun Will Travel and Johnny Dollar episodes. My daughter is the original Blanche Bickerson.
