Network Radio Has a Bit of Life

(5 Sterne)

This fine documentary series produced by the NBC News department took the word "sound" seriously as it attempted to include different voices to keep the pace moving. There was a different host each week. Production values are simple, serious and effective. The Fred Allen tribute was written by Earl Hamner of 'The Waltons' fame. In the repeat broadcast, the network announcer at the start is an unidentified Radcliffe Hall, as best as I can tell. Vic Roby gives the network cue at the end. The Mary Martin tribute is introed and extroed by Mel Brandt, the Salute To Radio is opened and closed by Fred Collins (who also extros the Kenton show) and the announcer on the Show Biz episode is unquestionably Don Pardo (Roby reminds listeners about Dr. Six Gun before the chimes). This occasional programme originally aired on Sunday evenings, but when Monitor was about to come into being, was moved to Tuesdays.

Like most questions, this can be answered faster than you can leave a comment by simply typing the question into Google. In this case, "Is this in the public domain" will give you all the info you'll need to determine for yourself. In other news---do you genuinely think anyone is going to pursue copyright infringement on a radio show from the 50s? Do you have an idea how much a copyright lawyer costs? Relax.
