Members Reviews: Worth the PRICE of admission Vincent Price was a very good Saint. Had a good tone of voice for Simon Templar. Larry Dobkin played his sidekick and cab drive Louie. After Price left the series Tom Conway took over. He is ok but was better on the SHERLOCK HOLMES radio series. Conway is the brother of George Sanders who played the Saint is a series of films in the early 40's. Overall a nice collection of episodes. Five Stars This is one of my most favorite series. The Saint Solves the Case - A Review I was disappointed in this product because, although the stories were okay, I was expecting them to be told by an Engligh voice. The author was English and in all the movies I have ever seen regarding The Saint the actors were English; therefore, it was a bit jarring hearing the American accent. Having said that, of course Vincent Price was good. Not all of the episodes were narrated by Vincent Prince. Some were played by Tom Conway and some by Denis Green. Both of these men are also good narrators. If you don't mind that this is not an English production, you may still enjoy listening to these oldtime stories.

Title: Inner Sanctum Mystery, Collection 1 Author: Black Eye Entertainment Narrator: full cast Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 48 mins Language: English Release date: 12-18-17 Publisher: Brilliance Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Taking its name from a popular series of mystery novels, Inner Sanctum Mystery debuted over NBC's Blue Network in January 1941. Inner Sanctum Mystery featured one of the most memorable and atmospheric openings in radio history: an organist hit a dissonant chord, a doorknob turned and the famous "creaking door" slowly began to open. Every week, Inner Sanctum Mystery told stories of ghosts, murderers and lunatics. Produced in New York, the cast usually consisted of veteran radio actors, with occasional guest appearances by such Hollywood stars Boris Karloff, Peter Lorre and Claude Rains. What made Inner Sanctum Mystery unique among radio horror shows was its host, a slightly sinister sounding fellow originally known as "Raymond." The host had a droll sense of humor and an appetite for ghoulish puns, and his influence can be seen among horror hosts everywhere, from the Crypt-Keeper to Elvira. Raymond Edward Johnson was the show's host until 1945; Paul McGrath took over as host until the show left the air in 1952. Producer Himan Brown would utilize the creaking door again in the 1970s, when he produced and directed The CBS Radio Mystery Theater. 4/24/45 Song of the Slasher 5/1/45 The Girl and the Gallows 5/22/45 Dead to Rights 5/29/45 Musical Score 6/12/45 Portrait of Death 6/19/45 Dead Man's Holiday 9/18/45 Terror by Night 10/16/45 Till Death Do Us Part 2/12/46 The Man Who Couldn't Die (aka Elixir Number Four) 1/15/46 The Edge of Death 7/5/48 Death Demon 4/4/49 Death Wears a Lonely Smile

Case of the Girl Who Cried Wolfe Audiobook by Adventures of Nero Wolfe

Title: Case of the Girl Who Cried Wolfe Author: Adventures of Nero Wolfe Narrator: uncredited Format: Original Recording Length: 28 mins Language: English Release date: 12-21-06 Publisher: Radio Spirits, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 93 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Nero Wolfe, featured in 46 novels, movies, and television series, first came to radio on April 7, 1943. The great character actor Sydney Greenstreet played him from 1950-51. Wolfe, the "gargantuan gourmet", solved crimes with an attention to detail that rivaled the great Sherlock Holmes. The overweight detective of Rex Stout's novels refused to leave his elegant brownstone on business, sending his wisecracking, two-fisted assistant, Archie Goodwin, out to do his legwork. This peculiar private investigator preferred tending to his beloved orchids over solving crimes. In fact, the only reason he worked at all was to keep up his lavish lifestyle. Members Reviews: Cry Wolfe. Another great show. My only problem with this radio program is that it seems they have a different actor playing Archie every week. Nero Wolfe may be the center of the show, but Archie is not a secondary character. He's just as important to the series as Nero. It seems the radio show didn't think he was worth having a permient actor playing him. Big mistake. Nero and Archie are the beat detective team since Holmes and Watson. And Archie, get them here These half hour dramatizations of Nero Wolfe stories do partially capture a taste of the marvellous relationship between the lazy, fat detective and his legman, Archie, the first pompous, irascible, ingenious and who never leaves his home (except under dire emergency), the latter being very bright, fast talking, personable, a bit of the ladies man and the get it done guy, one half of a great duo. But this production fails to give Archie his due: without him Wolfe would no longer be able to operate, stay home and tend orchids. And his representative for the world outside has to be as sharp as Wolfe himself, if different. Not the Archie portrayed here The old radio play brings an atmospheric time feeling but not the pictures in the head which reading the print version would give. The acting fits the characters,the whole feels dated. But it's fun and brings back memories of all of the original magnificent Rex Stout books available. Not Great This is the worst of the Nero Wolfe stories I have listened to. ..Others are much better...

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 15 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" From 1930-1954, the wealthy Lamont Cranston was one of the best-known characters on radio, using his mystical powers to fight crime. The only person who knew The Shadow's true identity was his "friend and companion, the lovely Margot Lane". Through the years, The Shadow was portrayed by Frank Readick, Orson Welles, Bill Johnstone, Bret Morrison, and others. As listeners were reminded at the end of every episode, "The weed of crime bears bitter fruit. Crime does not pay! The Shadow knows!" Critic Reviews: "As one of the basic prototypes of what has come to be called Pop Art, the Shadow is unique and irreplaceable, a legend in his own time. A classic character who looms slouch hat and shoulders above all others of his kind, he is an inevitable as a guilty conscience, an unseen power that awakens within all of us our most deep-rooted fears of mortal retribution. There has never been a force quite like him." (Jim Harmon, The Great Radio Heroes) Members Reviews: Nice little mystery. The Shadow does it again. Proving that even a chess club can harbor evil and that some betts are not worth winning. By the book Any additional comments? The judge writes a book and now, many years later, someone decides to follow the book of murders.

The villain was to melodramatic and the Shadow was to slow in his thinking. The idiot waited to long to save an innocent. You got to think fast in the crime fighting game. A political story Any additional comments? A senator is being tried for a crime he claims to not have committed. The prosecution team produces a film showing the senator taking bribes. Court continues.

Title: Big Pug Author: Dragnet Narrator: uncredited Format: Original Recording Length: 29 mins Language: English Release date: 04-20-07 Publisher: Radio Spirits, Inc. Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 9 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: From 1949 to 1957, Dragnet pioneered new levels of realism on radio. Every crime investigated by Sergeant Joe Friday was taken from the actual case files of the Los Angeles Police Department, with only "the names changed to protect the innocent". There were multi-layered sound effects; the actors used accurate police lingo, abbreviations, and penal codes; and the show didn't shy away from stories about heinous crimes or stories that had unhappy endings. Created and produced by Jack Webb, Dragnet was much more than "just the facts". Critic Reviews: "By far the most popular police/crime program of all time. It enjoyed enormous success on radio." (Jon David Swartz and Robert C. Reinehr, Handbook of Old-Time Radio) Members Reviews: Robbery of Grandma? Grandma goes to the bank and gets robbed. I guess it is a good idea to vary our patterns of activity. Good sound quality and narration.

One of radio's earliest and most durable police procedural shows, the series' stark and gritty realism is strongly reminiscent of Warner Brothers' gangster films of the 1930s - particularly with the presence of real-life LAPD dispatcher Jesse Rosenquist, whose unique voice and name became the show's trademark. Rosenquist contributed to the American lexicon the program's title and the now time-honored phrase "that is all".

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 33 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Crime and suspense for the holidays! This collection contains five classic radio programs from the '40s and '50s: Hear more of radio movie dramatizations, or listen to all of the by themselves! © and (P)2006 Radio Spirits, Inc. Members Reviews: Yet more fun! This selection is as good as Volume 1, and contains the same great blend of classic radio mystery and Christmas glitz. The stories in this volume are darker, on the whole, with the Dragnet episode being positively downbeat. But there's still plenty of the holiday spirit -- in the form of thoughtfulness and forgiveness, even when there can't be outright cheer. As before, the audio quality reflects the vintage source, but it's all quite clear and easy to listen to. The original commercial breaks have been left in, so there's nothing to break the back-in-time atmosphere. Another great radio collection to listen to any time of year!

Breen Narrator: Jack Webb, Tudor Owen, Raymond Burr Format: Original Recording Length: 5 hrs Language: English Release date: 01-28-16 Publisher: Radio Spirits Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: "She sauntered in, moving slowly from side to side like one hundred and eighteen pounds of warm smoke." If you got the idea that Pat Novak was a rather single-minded fellow, you'd be wrong. He appreciated liquor every bit as much as he appreciated women. He could be found most nights popping shots and wisecracks with his saloon-owner pal, Jocko Madigan (Tudor Owen). But, most of all, he appreciated the crisp greenness of a new 50-dollar bill. Operating out of the grim San Francisco waterfront, Novak didn't have much use for anyone and didn't much care who knew it. He had no respect for criminals and even less for the police, especially as personified by his nemesis, Inspector Hellman (Raymond Burr). Novak, as played by Jack Webb, was every cliché of a hard-boiled detective ever written, and that was exactly what made the series' inimitable combination of gritty drama and straight-faced satire work so well. Includes 10 digitally restored and remastered episodes. Episodes include: Members Reviews: Pat Novak for Hire GREAT GREAT!!!! I love old radio, this one of the best. You should hear them all.

His first appearance on radio was April 7, 1943. The great character actor Sydney Greenstreet played Wolfe from 1950-51. The "gargantuan gourmet" solved crimes with an attention to detail that rivaled the great Sherlock Holmes.

This peculiar private investigator preferred tending to his beloved orchids over solving crimes. In fact, the only reason he worked at all was to keep up his lavish lifestyle. Members Reviews: Rex Stout could not possibly have approved these Nero Wolfe is a lecher who drinks beer out a can and belches like a sailor. Archie is after every skirt in the boroughs and Nero Wolfe thinks that's the funniest thing ever. The narrator who I think so little of I cannot even remember his name, speaks Nero with a nasal tone that sounds like a bad cold and Archie with a broad Bronx honking sound. Fritz only showed up once in the adventures I've listened to, and that time, only with Nero bellowing to him to get the car because Archie is in trouble. And to top it off, during Nero's grand recap of the case, he turns to Archie to explain it. I can't believe Stout approved these but he must have. He died in 1975. These monstrosities come from the 20's. Maybe he was really strapped for funds. Whatever the case, this is not Nero Wolfe.

Title: The Adventures of Philip Marlowe, Volume 2 Author: Raymond Chandler Narrator: full cast Format: Original Recording Length: 9 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 02-09-16 Publisher: Radio Archives, LLC Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Gerald Mohr stars as Raymond Chandler's hard-boiled gumshoe in The Adventures of Philip Marlowe, a series based on one of the most popular sleuths in the history of crime fiction. The show first aired in 1947, with Van Heflin in the title role. Chandler disliked the initial incarnation, dubbing it "totally flat". However, in the 1948 revival, Chandler admitted satisfaction, remarking that Mohr's voice "packed personality". Mohr indeed made the role of Marlowe his own, portraying a brash and forceful tough guy who could let fly with the occasional wisecrack. The scripts were equally tough, focusing on hard-hitting action while also showcasing many of the distinguished actors and actresses from Hollywood's Radio Row, including Lawrence Dobkin, Jeff Corey, Betty Lou Gerson, and Harry Bartell.

Title: Night Beat, Vol. 1 Author: Hollywood 360, NBC Radio Narrator: Frank Lovejoy Format: Original Recording Length: 5 hrs and 54 mins Language: English Release date: 09-16-15 Publisher: Black Eye Entertainment Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: There were several newspaper-based dramas during radio's golden age, including Box 13, Let George Do It, and Casey, Crime Photographer, but Night Beat was a cut above. It was the story of Randy Stone, hard-nosed Chicago Star newsman, and his quest for the human-interest story behind the headlines. It starred Frank Lovejoy as Stone, who came to vivid life thanks to expert scripts by Russell Hughes, E. Jack Neuman, John Michael Hayes (who would later write the Hitchcock film classics To Catch a Thief and Rear Window), and Larry Marcus. Lovejoy's distinctive voice and approach to the role, combined with top performances by veteran radio actors, gave Night Beat a noir style that listeners loved. The stories ran the gamut from lighthearted to tragic, and through it all Randy Stone would narrate the story and comment on it from beginning to end - often with a hard-edged cynicism. Night Beat aired on NBC Radio from 1950 to 1952. This collection features 12 episodes. Episodes include: "Zero", "The Night Is a Weapon", "The Girl in the Park", "A World All His Own", "Number 13", "Am I My Brother's Keeper?", "Flowers on the Water", "The Man Who Claimed to Be Dead", "I Know Your Secret", "Tong War", "Mentallo, the Mental Marvel", and "The Elevator Caper".

Jeff Regan and the Lyon will remind listeners of an edgier Archie Goodwin & Nero Wolfe. In this series Jeff (our Archie) is not only driving the action, but solves the cases with the Lyon doing the bulk of the background work from his office chair. Full of action and dames and interesting plots, this collection is a keeper.

Title: The Man Called X Author: Jay Richard Kennedy Narrator: Herbert Marshall Format: Original Recording Length: 5 hrs and 58 mins Language: English Release date: 12-10-14 Publisher: Radio Spirits Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: "Wherever there's mystery, intrigue, romance... in all the strange and dangerous places of the world... there you will find The Man Called X." Wherever he goes, action follows! Suave, debonair secret agent Ken Thurston travels the world, dispatched anywhere America's interests might be threatened. This exciting espionage series was created by the enigmatic real-life intelligence operative Jay Richard Kennedy. In his signature role, Herbert Marshall stars as Thurston, with former bandleader Leon Belasco as sidekick Pagan Zeldtschimdt. Veteran director Jack Johnstone gives the series his usual slick polish, and scripts by some of radio's top adventure writers give these exotic stories vigor and snap. Episodes Include: The Fish Peddler, 10-20-50; A Cure for Cancer, 10-27-50; The Disappearance of Professor Czorny, 11-03-50; The Murdered Telegrapher, 11-11-50; The Prayer Wheel, 11-18-50; The Disappearing Cryptographer, 11-25-50; The Cholera Serum, 12-02-50; Death in the Pipeline, 12-09-50; Information Leak in Strasburg, 12-16-50; Christmas in the Middle East, 12-23-50; Death in the Congo, 12-30-50; The Himmler Plates, 01-06-51. Members Reviews: Classic Spy Adventure From The Waning Years of Radio's Golden Age! Just finished listening to "The Man Called 'X'" released by Radio Spirits. Secret Agent Ken Thurston is perhaps one of the most intriguing heroes to emerge for the waning years of Radio's Golden Age. Every counter espionage agent knows his identity; yet Ken Thurston is able to protect America's interests abroad with the help of the most unlikeliest of sidekicks - stool-pigeon Pagan Zeldtschimdt, who it would seem is always eager to sell someone out for mere monetary gains. As a secret agent, Thurston is in the same class as James Bond; yet he's more grounded than Bond and kills only when forced to. My favorite episodes in this collection are: "The Disappearance of Professor Czarny," "The Cholera Serum," "The Prayer Wheel," "Christmas in the Middle East," and "The Himmler Plates." Strongly Recommended! Five Stars!

Former real-life private detective William Gargan stars as Barrie Craig, a confidential investigator working out of an office on New York's Madison Avenue. Prowling the dirty, crime-ridden byways of a city in the midst of violent post-war change, he kept a wry sense about the frailties of human life. Ralph Bell co-stars as Lt. Travis Rogers, and Parker Fennelly supplies his trademark Vermont wit as Craig's elevator operator, Jake, in 10 digitally restored and re-mastered episodes of bookies, broads, masquerades, and murders!

The recordings have been transferred onto cds with superb sound and professional quality. Great to listen to on a relaxing evening or while driving in the car, especially on a long road trip (preferably at night). Better than anything on television these days where a good story written with style and intelligence has become a lost art.

The show's producer and director, Jerry Devine, had once worked for the FBI, so having him for the show would allow each story to be told in the best way possible. J. Edgar Hoover, who was the chief of the FBI at the time, gave it his endorsement, calling it "the finest dramatic program on the air", and gave Devine access to the FBI files for the stories used in the show. The show's main character was Agent Jim Taylor, who handled crime cases on the West Coast. Each 30-minute episode allowed for the presentation of the criminal's actions, followed up with Taylor's investigation of the crime. This long-running series starred Frank Lovejoy (and later Dean Carlton and William Woodson) as the narrator, Betty White, and Stacy Harris. Episodes included are: "The Serviceman's Fraud", "The Desert Dictator", "The Unwelcome Guest", "The Sinister Souvenir", "The Cautious Killer", "The Corrupt City", "The Pan American Patriots", "The Castaway Killer", "The Paroled Killer", "The Delinquent Parents", "The Nylon Hijacker", and "The Singing Swindler".

For 15 years, it was one of the most popular detective shows on the air, lasting until the final days of network radio drama in 1962. Each story started with a phone call from an insurance executive calling on Johnny Dollar to investigate an unusual claim. His investigations usually required Dollar to travel to distant locales and often involved murder. The stories were recounted in flashback, as Dollar listed each line item from his expense account: "Item one, $3.75 cab fare to the airport." Over the years, many actors portrayed Johnny Dollar, including Charles Russell, John Lund and Edmund O'Brien but in 1955, Bob Bailey, took over as the series was switching to a new dynamic format of 75-minute storylines told in five, 15-minute installments Monday-thru-Friday. While other radio shows were waning in the mid 1950s, Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar was at its peak. Experts include these 75-minute adventures as the best of the best from radio's golden age. 5/14/56 through 5/18/56 The Medium Well Done Matter 5/21/56 through 5/25/56 The Tears of Night Matter 5/28/56 through 6/1/56 The Reasonable Doubt Matter 6/4/56 through 6/8/56 The Indestructible Mike Matter 6/11/56 through 6/15/56 The Laughing Matter 6/18/56 through 6/22/56 The Pearling Matter Members Reviews: Johnny Dollar cd's Love Johnny Dollar Five Stars The re mastering quality is very good Old Time Radio My husband loves the "old time radio" and he especially likes Johnny Dollar.

When Phillips H. Lord created his long running Gang Busters radio series in January of 1936, crime was rampant and criminals (both actual and fictional) were being glamorized in movies and newspapers. In response, Lord brought the public this police procedural series, dramatizing stories of real cops who kept real counterfeiters, safe crackers, and killers off the streets - and even broadcasting alerts for criminals known to be at large. These 20 digitally remastered and restored episodes present raw case histories that point out an ancient truth: that society's way is the best way, and that he who flagrantly defies law and custom never wins and usually pays a stiff price for his boldness. EPISODES INCLUDE: "The Case of Dwight Beard" 11-01-40, "The Case of the Nickel and Dime Bandits" 03-28-41, "The Case of the Missing Corpse" (or "The Case of Mrs. Gangbusters") 04-04-41, "The Case of the Jersey Butcher Bandits" 11-08-47, "The Case of the Triple Threat Bandit" 12-27-47, "The Case of the Oliver Brothers" (or "Brothers in Banditry") 01-31-48, "The Case of the Broadway Bandits" 03-20-48, "The Case of the Cumberland Safe Cracker" (or "The Case of the Ray Ernest Gang") 03-27-48, "The Case of the High School Hot Shots" 04-10-48, "The Case of the Quincy Killers" 04-24-48, "The Case of Craig and Motes" (or "The Case of the Tennessee Triggermen") 06-19-48, "The Case of the Mysterious Rooming House" 07-24-48, "The Case of the Cincinnati Narcotics Ring" 09-25-48, "The Case of the Appointment With Death" 12-18-48, "The Case of the Counterfeit Combine" 01-29-49, "The Case of the Sledgehammer Handicap" (or "The Case of the Laughing Bandits") 06-11-49, "The Case of the Elusive Leader" 10-22-49, "The Case of the Hue and the Cry" 11-26-49, "The Case of the Golden Touch" 01-07-50, "The Case of the Lost Gun" (or "The Danville Bank Job") 02-05-55 Members Reviews: Five Stars love old time radio Classic Radio Lots of fun!!!

There has never been a force quite like him." (Jim Harmon, The Great Radio Heroes) Members Reviews: a Watery grave. The Shadow really walked into a nasty trap in this one. It was something out of Saturday serials. Another great little story in the adventures of the Shadow. The head talks Any additional comments?

Larry Dobkin co-stars as Louie the Cabbie in these digitally restored and remastered tales that find Templar sailing, skiing, and delving in to the disparate worlds of mining, baseball, prizefighting, mystery writing, and more.

Members Reviews: The Saint. I love the Saint. Over the years I've watched the Roger Moore show and I loved it. I have seen the Val Kimer and George Sanders movies. I have read the books, also my favorite kind of books. This is the first time I've heard it on radio. Vincent Price I've only seen him in his horror films or when he used to host PBS Mystery. He really does a good job as Simon Templer. He brings the right kind of humor and romantic figure out of the character. This show has a lot of humor and drama and action to satisfy any Saint fans.

No radio show opening is more memorable for many fans than the one heard on Inner Sanctum Mysteries.

Inner Sanctum Mysteries features the best of fright, terror, humor, and fantastic storytelling the series has to offer! Members Reviews: Just what I wanted Love this!

Title: Rogue's Gallery, Vol. 1 Subtitle: The Classic Radio Collection Author: Hollywood 360 - producer Narrator: Dick Powell, full cast Format: Original Recording Length: 5 hrs and 52 mins Language: English Release date: 04-01-16 Publisher: Black Eye Entertainment Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Rogue's Gallery was an old-time radio program starring Dick Powell as Richard Rogue, a private detective who trailed luscious blondes, protected witnesses, and did whatever else detectives do to make a living. What set this show apart from others in the genre was that midway through every episode, Rogue would invariably end up getting knocked out and spending his dream time in acerbic conversation on Cloud 8 with his subconscious self named Eugor - Rogue spelled backward. The presence of the alter ego served to give Rogue enough information for his final deduction. Eugor would appear cackling like the host of The Hermit's Cave while imparting some vital information our hero had overlooked. Rogue would then awaken with a vague idea of what to do next. Directed by Dee Englebach, with music by Leith Stevens, Rogue's Gallery employed radio's best supporting actors, including Lou Merrill, Gerald Mohr, Gloria Blondell, Tony Barrett, Lurene Tuttle, and Peter Leeds. Dick Powell left the series in 1946 and would later star in Richard Diamond, Private Detective. Rogue's Gallery continued on until 1952, starring Barry Sullivan and later Paul Stewart. Rogue's Gallery, Vol. 1 features the following 12 episodes: "Blondes Prefer Gentlemen" (10/18/1945); "Murder with Muriel" (10/25/1945); "Little Drops of Rain" (11/8/1945); "Lovely Little Old Lady" (11/29/1945); "Triangle of Death" (2/21/1946); "A Fortune in Furs" (12/20/1945); "The Stark McVey Case" aka "Murder at Minden" (1/3/1946); "The Pamela Leeds Case" aka "A Will in Question" (1/17/1946); "Carlotta, the Magnificent" aka "Special Added Attraction" (1/31/1946); "Death House Legacy" (4/4/1946); "The Star of Savoy" (6/23/1946); "Cabin on a Lake" (7/7/1946).

Now these rare programs are featured in this set of 10 original radio broadcasts featuring Tom Conway and Nigel Bruce, just as originally aired over the ABC Radio Network in 1946. Volume one has been transferred directly from the original master recordings and has been fully restored for outstanding audio fidelity. Members Reviews: The Nw Adventures of Sherlock Holmes Volume 2 I am a great fan of Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce and their portrayals of Holmes and Watson respectively. If you are also, then you will want to have this CD. It includes the obviously dated commercials for Petri wine and also includes interesting reminiscences of individuals who were involved in those radio productions of 1945-46. The anthology presented here is entertaining and represents adaptations of original Conan Doyle stories abbreviated and usually re-titled for radio. Like the other programs in this CD series, this CD is worth buying if you are a fan of old time radio and of the Rathbone-Bruce interpretations of Holmes and Watson. Riveting listening! Generally a refreshing and beautiful treatment of Conan Doyle's works, these delightful recordings preserve the essence of the author's intent chiefly through the presence of the iconic actors (Rathbone and Bruce) who also brought the characters to the screen. Rathbone's voice and Bruce's endearing mannerisms represent the gold standard of the Holmes and Watson team. ... stars with the assumption Vol 2 will be as good as Vol 1 5 stars with the assumption Vol 2 will be as good as Vol 1. I do a lot of long distance driving and it's just too much of a bother to keep finding radio stations. Besides, I love anything and everything Sherlock Holmes. whole series is great I'm a fan of Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce, so it doesn't bother me at all that most of these stories were not written by Conan Doyle. The stories are pretty good quality, the acting is good, and listening to it during my commute is a pleasant way to travel. It is nice that they left the commercials for Petri Wine in place. They are so old fashioned and innocent! Why by Petri wine? Because its "good wine." That's all. They found some of the original actors and directors of the show to give color commentary. This is quite interesting oral history. In my old car, the sound quality is such that I miss a few words here and there. But its from very old tapes, I presume, so we're lucky to hear them at all. I have also enjoyed many other readings of original Conan Doyle stories, My favorite is http://www.amazon.com/Sherlock-Holmes-Baker-Street-Dozen/dp/1598879162/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1372015745&sr=1-1&keywords=a+bakers+street+dozen I love Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce terrific radio story I ...

Members Reviews: SERIOUS TECHNICAL ISSUES. DON'T BOTHER..... Raymond Chandler is a master. These vintage radio shows are a classic. However, for reasons which defy explanation, Audible has chosen to sell a product which is technically flawed. Not just the popping and scratching expected from old audio products. The problem here is that each story suddenly cuts off BEFORE the performance is completed - oftentimes in the middle of the much-awaited summary of the crime investigation. It makes no sense! Just sheer negligence and lack of quality control from Audible.com. This is not book costing $4.95, $7.99 or even $10. The cost is a credit or over $20 with tax. UNCONSCIONABLE! Next stop for Phillip Marlowe: REFUND!!! I can hear these same stories on Old Time Radio podcasts free of charge. What a disappointment! In Finished Business Not one of these stories are complete, this is a waist of my leisure time; as well as being very frustrating!

The Black Museum was a weekly radio crime drama produced for the BBC in 1951 and based on real-life cases from the files of Scotland Yard. Orson Welles, who was living in London at the time, was both host and narrator for these dramatized stories based on Scotland Yard's Black Museum, which housed its collection of murder weapons and various ordinary objects once associated with historical crime cases. Walking through the museum, Welles would pause at one of the exhibits, and his description of an artifact served as a device to lead into a tale of terror or a brutal murder. In the weekly opening, Welles stated, "The Black Museum...a repository of death. Here in the grim stone structure on the Thames, which houses Scotland Yard, is a warehouse of homicide, where everyday objects...a woman's shoe, a tiny white box, a quilted robe...all are touched by murder." The series aired in the United States in 1952 on the Mutual Network. It was produced by Harry Alan Towers. Ira Marion wrote the scripts, and Sidney Torch composed and conducted the music for the series. "A Blued .22 Caliber Pistol", "A Wool Jacket", "The Canvas Bag", "An Open-End Wrench", "The Tan Shoe", "The Notes", "The Spotted Bed Sheet", "An Old Wooden Mallet", "A Champagne Glass", "The Small White Boxes", "The Raincoat", and "The Gas Receipt". Members Reviews: A Good Set of Thrillers However; the English accents are atrocious. No way are all of these actors British. They are all quite over the top and nothing like I nor the rest of my Country speaks. I appreciate in that era the BBC did like pigeon English but this is not correct pigeon English. Anyway, it is quite funny but these programs are not supposed to be amusing so this is rather distracting. Wells was always over exaggerated in all he did which is one reason I do not like much of his work. I do think these programs would be much better had Wells not had anything to do with them. se la vive ! These are still enjoyable old radio and I like them.

Rehabilitated, he decided to use his knowledge of the underworld to fight crime as an amateur detective. Known as "an enemy to those who make him an enemy, friend to those who have no friend", Boston Blackie's exploits were adapted to film, radio, and television. Chester Morris, who had played Boston Blackie in a series of B movies for Columbia, originated the character on radio in 1944. By1 945 Richard Kollmar had taken over the title role in a radio series syndicatedby Frederic W. Ziv. Over 200 radio episodes were produced between 1944 and 1950. While investigating the cases, Blackie would invariably encounter harebrained Police Inspector Faraday (Maurice Tarplin) and always solve the crime before Faraday could. The initial friction between Blackie and Faraday gave way as the series continued, and Faraday came to recognize Blackie's talents, occasionally even requesting his assistance. Blackie dated Mary Wesley (Jan Miner), and for the first half of the series, his best pal Shorty (Tony Barrett) was on hand. Boston Blackie transitioned to television in 1951.

Death Shows the Way Audiobook by The Shadow

Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/95/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Death Shows the Way Author: The Shadow Narrator: Bill Johnstone Format: Original Recording Length: 24 mins Language: English Release date: 01-18-07 Publisher: Radio Spirits, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 13 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" From 1930-1954, the wealthy Lamont Cranston was one of the best-known characters on radio, using his mystical powers to fight crime. The only person who knew The Shadow's true identity was his "friend and companion, the lovely Margot Lane". Through the years, The Shadow was portrayed by Frank Readick, Orson Welles, Bill Johnstone, Bret Morrison, and others. As listeners were reminded at the end of every episode, "The weed of crime bears bitter fruit. Crime does not pay! The Shadow knows!" Critic Reviews: "As one of the basic prototypes of what has come to be called Pop Art, the Shadow is unique and irreplaceable, a legend in his own time. A classic character who looms slouch hat and shoulders above all others of his kind, he is an inevitable as a guilty conscience, an unseen power that awakens within all of us our most deep-rooted fears of mortal retribution. There has never been a force quite like him." (Jim Harmon, The Great Radio Heroes) Members Reviews: A fun who did it. I was looking for a change of pace in my audiobook reading. I came across this audiobook of a radio show The Shadow. I remember listening to The Shadow on the radio in the 1940s and 50s. It always opened with Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows! Over the years of the show various actors played the hero Lamont Cranston. They were Frank Readick, Orson Welles, Bill Johnstone and Bret Morrison. This show Death Shows the Way aired on December 3, 1939 and stars Bill Johnstone. In this story Lamont Cranston and Margot Lane go on a short trip to visit a friend. They get caught up in a jewel heist and murder. The story is only 24 minutes. I guess it was a half hour show allowing for the commercials. It was great to listen to one of the old radio shows again. This audiobook made a great relaxing escape. William Bill Johnstone (1908-1996) was a big star in the Golden Age of Radio. He starred as The Shadow, was Inspector Cramer in Nero Wolfe, played Lt. Ybarra on Philip Marlowe and was The Whistler. He also was Lt. Ben Guthrie in The Line-up and played on many of the soap operas in the hay-day of radio. The lovely Margot Lane..... What did you love best about Death Shows the Way? Lamar Cranston is going away for the weekend and his butler is packing to make sure the he will be correctly turned out. A midget is acting like a child and he is horrible! An official thief!

Members Reviews: If only it was complete As a fan of old time radio detective series both from the UK and US, this a gem. The only downside is that it does not appear to be the complete series with various episodes missing that sometimes make it harder to follow. That said the story is classic, the full cast performance excellent so overall I will happily add to my collection. One extra bonus is the sound quality of this.compared to others I have heard. Enjoy enjoy enjoy Thoroughly enjoyable story & performance with good use of the Sax Rohmer books . It ends with the wish to seek another story.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's detective genius, Sherlock Holmes, first came to NBC radio in 1930, starring Richard Gordon. By 1939, Basil Rathbone took over as Holmes, with Nigel Bruce as Dr. Watson. The duo were simultaneously starring in a very popular series of Sherlock Holmes' movies for the Fox and Universal studios. By the end of that feature run in the mid 1940s, Rathbone was eager to separate himself from the radio show to avoid being typecast, and even though the show's sponsor, Petri Wines, offered him generous pay to continue, he decided to move on. Tom Conway took over as Holmes, with Nigel Bruce continuing as Watson and getting top billing, followed by other actors as the series continued. Included here are the following episodes that aired in 1946: "The Strange Case of the Murder in Wax", "Murder Beyond the Mountains", "The Telltale Pigeon Feathers", "The Case of Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber", "The Camberwell Poisoner", "The Submarine Caves", "The Adventure of the Blarney Stone", "The April Fool's Day Adventure", "The Disappearing Scientists", "The Tankerville Club", "The Waltz of Death", and "The Man with the Twisted Lip".

Title: The Adventures of Sam Spade, Detective, Volume 2 Author: Hollywood 360 Narrator: Howard Duff, Steven Dunne, full cast Format: Original Recording Length: 5 hrs and 48 mins Language: English Release date: 07-22-16 Publisher: Black Eye Entertainment Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Sam Spade was a hard-boiled detective with cold detachment, a keen eye for detail, and unflinching determination to achieve his own justice. The character of Sam Spade was created by writer Dashiell Hammett in 1930 for his crime story The Maltese Falcon, and for most people, the character is closely associated with actor Humphrey Bogart, who played Sam Spade in the third and most famous film version of the story. In 1946, William Spier, one of radio's top producers, brought Sam Spade to the airwaves starring newcomer Howard Duff with Lurene Tuttle (and occasionally Sandra Gould) as Effie Perrine, Spade's secretary. Duff took a more tongue-in-cheek approach to the character than did the novel or movie. Dashiell Hammett lent his name to the radio series, but did little more than cash the checks sent to him for the privilege. Scriptwriters were Jason James and Bob Tallman, who received an Edgar Award in 1947 for best radio drama from the Mystery Writers of America. Howard Duff starred as Spade until 1951 when Steve Dunne took the role. Starring here are Howard Duff or Steve Dunne as Sam Spade, with Lurene Tuttle, Paul Frees, Wally Maher, Verna Felton, Shirley Mitchell, Lou Merrill, and others. Episodes included in this collection are "The Bow Window Caper" (9 Nov 47), "The Critical Author Caper" (15 Aug 48), "The Sugar Kane Caper" (3 Oct 48), "The Overjord Caper" (5 Jun 49), "The Sure Thing Caper" (9 Feb 51), "The Soap Opera Caper" (16 Feb 51), "The Shot in the Dark Caper" (23 Feb 51), "The Crab Louis Caper" (2 Mar 51), "The Spanish Prisoner Caper" (9 Mar 51), "The Kimberly Cross Caper" (23 Mar 51), "The Vendetta Caper" (30 Mar 51), and "The Civic Pride Caper" (13 Apr 51).

On the up side, these made me nostalgic for The Good Old Days although the stories were mostly new to me. On the down side, it took me until the third disc to figure out the CD player in my car has a Skip Forward button that will skip over the Petri Wine commercials and stop exactly on the story dialog where it left off. Both the car player manufacturer AND the CD manufacturer from Amazon impressed me no end on that feature. In my opinion, me not being a book critic, I find the stories entertaining and a nice pass time while I'm driving. If you understand Holmes's methods you may figure out one or two mysteries along the way. It can make driving with a co-pilot (map reader, motel finder) a sort of "who do YOU think did it ?" diversion. ... my opinion Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce were the best Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson ever in my opinion Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce were the best Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson ever.it was almost as if you were there with them.great cd i recommend this provider These are better as they have a few of the original show's ... Second set of the"New" Adventures I have purchased. These are better as they have a few of the original show's announcers, writer/director types doing a preliminary lead in to the episode before the oridnary Dr. Watson lead in. Some interesting behind the scenes insights from them on various things. Good quality, clean sound, nice cases to protect the discs... cardboard, but not overly tight and no glue to be found. Enjoy! Five Stars love it Classic Old Radio Great old radio shows of Sherlock Holmes with Basil Rathbone & Nigel Bruce. The mysteries are not based on the original stories by Doyle but are interesting just the same. These are shows from later in the series (it ran from 1939-46). The commercials for Petri wine are hokey, but you can overlook that. There are even interesting announcements for the war effort. A must for the Sherlock Holmes fan.

It had ghost stories, crime stories, psycho stories, time travel stories, and space travel stories. It also had my favorite kind of endings for stories like these, the surprise ending. The Mysterious traveler was a great host, up there with the Whisiler. Listen to the last story, it's the funniest ghost story you will ever hear. The story even makes fun of the radio program its on. I hope they will release more Mysterious traveler stories soon.

Members Reviews: The hermits tales. I liked the Hermit character a lot. My problem with the program is that I didn't like most of the stories. Not many of them were good. This could of been a better horror radio show. Love These Old Time Radio spook Shows You do not get this style of spook radio plays anymore. Although all of these were made many years before I was born (1950's) I still enjoy the creepiness of everyday events turned into the weird and wonderful set in the twilight world. If you forget that these were made over 50 years ago and take them for what they are ; spooky stories and can ignore the ever present 50's organ thrashing that was used to give that 50's eerie sound, then sit back with a hot drink (or what ever drink you prefer :) and relax into the world of the mysterious and unknown and feel the hairs on your back stand up high These are not modern in your face stories; like all the best writing, these allow you to conjure up the scenes in your own mind and you create the spooks ! Enjoy

It enjoyed enormous success on radio." (Jon David Swartz and Robert C. Reinehr, Handbook of Old-Time Radio) Members Reviews: A number of stories Any additional comments? I've listened to Dragnet for years. These volumes appear as single editions in your library. Most of them have great sound quality. Because each story is individual you will not see reviews on the whole volume very often. Most reviews are on each story. Most original radio episodes were sponsored by cigarette companies. Sometimes a plug for the cigarettes is made by Jack Webb, the primary voice of Dragnet, or other celebrities will join the list of promoters. There are a few extra comments such as attend church each week, become active in your community, serve on jury duty and even one which recommends reading you Bible during National Bible Week. Each episode has a story of crime and punishment, most have a twist for the culture of the 1940s and 1950s. Most stories could happen today. Heroin, drug use, stealing, forgery, murder - nothing different from our local news, what is different is leaving a dime for use of the phone, lunch plates costing $2, offering smokes to every person they meet along the way. Police officers can not longer afford to keep everyone in cigarettes the way these are passed out. The radio crimes are less violent because language that could cross the airwaves was limited and could not use slang or street terms. This makes Dragnet episodes suitable for all ages. Worthwhile and certainly a great value when you consider the price and how many hours you get of listening. Dragnet is awesome!

Pat Novak, for Hire began in 1946 as a regional radio show produced at KGO in San Francisco and starred Jack Webb in the title role, with scripts by Webb's friend Richard L. Breen. When Webb moved to Los Angeles in 1947, Ben Morris replaced Webb as Novak. In a later network version, Jack Webb resumed the role along with Breen as scriptwriter.

Title: Dragnet, Volume 2 Author: Jack Webb Narrator: full cast Format: Original Recording Length: 9 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 11-01-16 Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Police procedurals go back long before Dragnet's 1949 premiere - with an especially strong heritage in Los Angeles. Private Investigator Nick Harris presented dramatizations drawn from his own true-life case files as far back as the 1920s, and the Los Angeles Police Department itself collaborated closely with Don Lee Network producer William N. Robson for the long-running 1930s series Calling All Cars. But these formats fell from favor by the 1940s, with the advent of the "hard boiled dick" genre of crime programs. An ordinary policeman just doing his job had little chance against the legions of smart-mouthed gumshoes parading across the ether during the postwar years. Members Reviews: Outstanding Sound Reproduction! Outstanding sound reproduction. The recordings are virtually static-free. When I was growing up during the late 1960s, I listened to "Dragnet" on the radio through the Armed Forces Radio Network, Japan. I've been a fan of the Dragnet radio and TV series ever since. If you enjoy listening to classic radio, you will surely be impressed with your purchase from Radio Archives.

Title: Case of the Telltale Ribbon Author: Adventures of Nero Wolfe Format: Original Recording Length: 28 mins Language: English Release date: 12-21-06 Publisher: Radio Spirits, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 75 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Nero Wolfe, featured in 46 novels, movies, and television series, first came to radio on April 7, 1943. The great character actor Sydney Greenstreet played him from 1950-51. Wolfe, the "gargantuan gourmet", solved crimes with an attention to detail that rivaled the great Sherlock Holmes. The overweight detective of Rex Stout's novels refused to leave his elegant brownstone on business, sending his wisecracking, two-fisted assistant, Archie Goodwin, out to do his legwork. This peculiar private investigator preferred tending to his beloved orchids over solving crimes. In fact, the only reason he worked at all was to keep up his lavish lifestyle.

A Scandal in Bohemia Audiobook by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Title: A Scandal in Bohemia Author: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Narrator: Sir John Gielgud, Sir Ralph Richardson Format: Original Recording Length: 26 mins Language: English Release date: 07-24-15 Publisher: Divine Art Ltd Ratings: 1 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Based on an original story of the same name, this drama presents a delicate case involving an adventuresome monarch; an indiscreet photograph leads Holmes to the one person could not outwit the beautiful and dangerous Irene Adler. The 16 episodes of Sherlock Holmes starring Gielgud and Richardson were produced by Harry Alan Towers (1920-2009) for his "Towers of London" company. They were first broadcast on the old BBC Light Programme in 1954, and by NBC in 1955; they are still regarded by many as the definitive Holmes series. Heritage Media acquired exclusive distribution rights to the series from Towers in 1994; the series was licensed for several years with great success to Hodder Headline and reverted to Heritage at the end of 2009. The scripts were written by John Keir Cross, closely following the original stories of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, but renaming some of them. The music for the productions was composed by Sydney Torch, with the famous violin cadenzas played by Alfredo Campoli. Other actors appearing included Robert Rietti, and John Gielgud's brother Val (later Director of Drama at the BBC), who played Mycroft Holmes. Orson Welles took the part of Professor Moriarty. Quite possibly other 'big names' on the BBC roster appeared in the series anonymously too. The recordings were carefully remastered so as not to detract from the ambience of the original performances. Members Reviews: Good Morning Irene from Amazon This story was my introduction to Sherlock Holmes. It was a short story that was published in a newspaper and one of the few times Holmes is outwitted, this time by a woman. What sparked my interest was book discovered in a local bookstore titled Chapel Noir: An Irene Adler Mystery by Carole Nelson Douglas, the fourth book in the series. It's the continuation of Irene Adler after Scandal in Bohemia. I already ordered the first book, Good Morning Irene from Amazon. It will be a summer read. As to Mr. Holmes! I plan to read more and join the only Holmes Society on the West Coast in my neck of the Gold Country. Fast Read After watching the series Sherlock from BBC I decided I was going to go back and read the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle books. The Sherlock episode was entitled A Scandal in Belgravia versus Bohemia. They were very faithful to the book despite it being modernized. I read this book in under 2 hours it was that good. I will read his others as I have the time. I would recommend this book for an insight into Sherlock himself. a good read I had seen the TV version which was very interesting with a confusing plot.so I wanted the book version to read. And it was not disappointing but I am a Sherlock Holmes nut. Conan Doyle never disappoints This brief classic tale has become iconic. It is much quoted in spin off stories written by others. Indeed, Irene Adler is a clever woman! Three Stars FUN READING

Sponsored by the Signal Oil Company, The Whistler (Bill Forman) was an ominous narrator who knew the killer's every move even before they did. The stories followed an effective formula in which a person's criminal acts were typically undone by their own missteps. The Whistler often commented directly upon the action in the manner of a Greek chorus, taunting the criminal from an omniscient perspective. One of the show's trademarks was the ironic twist endings that helped serve as a payoff for the listener. Radio performers heard in this collection of 12 episodes include: Jane Morgan, Elliott Lewis, Lurene Tuttle, Gerald Mohr and Frank Lovejoy. 5/28/44 The Middle Toe of the Right Foot 9/3/44 Practically Fool Proof 9/10/44 Local Storm 9/25/44 Married to Murder 10/2/44 Not If I Kill You First 10/16/44 The Tale the Dead Man Told 7/16/45 A Pattern for Terror 7/23/45 Let George Do It 4/1/46 Three Times a Sinner 11/25/46 Two-Year Plan 12/23/46 Next Year is Mine 2/20/49 Ticket to Paris

Two years later NBC brought the character to the air in his own weekly series starring Van Heflin, The New Adventures of Philip Marlowe. A summer replacement for The Bob Hope Show, the series was short lived, ending on September 9, 1947. CBS revived it in 1948 with The Adventures of Philip Marlowe, starring Gerald Mohr. With producer/director Norman MacDonnell at the helm, the series captured the largest audience in radio by 1949. Scripts were by Gene Levitt, Robert Mitchell, Mel Dinelli, and Kathleen Hite. While Chandler's distinctive similes were largely lacking, the strong, dry, sarcastic narration was there, and the way Mohr delivered his lines made you forget they weren't written by Chandler. Supporting Mohr were radio's best, including Howard McNear, Parley Baer, Lawrence Dobkin, Virginia Gregg, and Lou Krugman. One of the best detective shows on the air at the time, it lasted until 1951. Episodes include "The Eager Witness", "The Bum's Rush", "The High-Collared Cape", "The Sea Horse Jockey", "The Hiding Place", "The Cloak of Kamehameha", "The Fox's Tail", "The Bedside Manners", "The Uneasy Head", "The Face to Forget", "The Gold Cobra", and "The Last Wish".

The great character actor Sydney Greenstreet played him from 1950-51. Wolfe, the "gargantuan gourmet", solved crimes with an attention to detail that rivaled the great Sherlock Holmes. The overweight detective of Rex Stout's novels refused to leave his elegant brownstone on business, sending his wisecracking, two-fisted assistant, Archie Goodwin, out to do his legwork. This peculiar private investigator preferred tending to his beloved orchids over solving crimes. In fact, the only reason he worked at all was to keep up his lavish lifestyle. Members Reviews: Cry Wolfe. A mystery with a surprise ending. Nero solves the mysterious death of a patient at a doctors office. I still think Greenstreet Wolfe laughs to much. As I said before the fictional Wolfe did not have a sense of humor. I have a crush on Archie Goodwin Rex Stout may have created a brilliant detective in Nero Wolf, but it is Archie who I keep coming back for. :) He is dreamy.

Even though victorious in World War II, American society still saw criminals in every shadow, villains around the corner, all lying in wait to disrupt the American way of life. Movies, television, books, and entertainment of all sorts capitalized on this anxiety, turning out tales of foreign infiltrators, nefarious plots to overthrow America, and the broad shouldered, barrel chested heroes who stood up for the United States. Radio was no different and one of the best examples of this type of program was Dangerous Assignment. Dangerous Assignment featured tough guy actor Brian Donlevy as Steve Mitchell, a troubleshooting agent of some sort, no real title or number is identified, for an unnamed agency established to protect the country and prevent unrest and turmoil from abroad.

Webb, also the producer of the show, took the series to new highs, insisting on realism in every facet of the program. The dialogue was clipped and sparse, taking its cue from hard-boiled crime fiction à la Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett. The stories were fast paced but thorough, making sure to chronicle every step of the police work from start to finish. As a result, Dragnet draws listeners deeply into its world of gritty crime and dedicated cops, guaranteeing an exhilarating audio experience. Episodes included are: "The Big Friend", "The Big Threat", "The Big Saint", "The Big Mailman", "The Big Imposter", "The Big Building", "The Big Run", "The Big Cliff", "The Big Love", "The Big Set-Up", "The Big Seventeen", and "The Big Waiter". Members Reviews: Four Stars Well received by a family member who remembers the early days of TV.

Title: The Poison Death Author: The Shadow Narrator: Orson Welles, Agnes Moorehead Format: Original Recording Length: 28 mins Language: English Release date: 01-10-07 Publisher: Radio Spirits, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 37 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" From 1930-1954, the wealthy Lamont Cranston was one of the best-known characters on radio, using his mystical powers to fight crime. The only person who knew The Shadow's true identity was his "friend and companion, the lovely Margot Lane". Through the years, The Shadow was portrayed by Frank Readick, Orson Welles, Bill Johnstone, Bret Morrison, and others. As listeners were reminded at the end of every episode, "The weed of crime bears bitter fruit. Crime does not pay! The Shadow knows!" Critic Reviews: "As one of the basic prototypes of what has come to be called Pop Art, the Shadow is unique and irreplaceable, a legend in his own time. A classic character who looms slouch hat and shoulders above all others of his kind, he is an inevitable as a guilty conscience, an unseen power that awakens within all of us our most deep-rooted fears of mortal retribution. There has never been a force quite like him." (Jim Harmon, The Great Radio Heroes) Members Reviews: Ripped from the headlines. This story reminded me of some crime shows I liked to watch, that some of their episodes had dealing with mad poisoners. These shows say their stories are based from true events. I wonder where the writers on this show get their ideas? Another great story. Criminals always make mistakes Any additional comments? Making a personal vendetta is how Cranston finds this criminal. Poison is killing people all over town. Fun I bought it because my challenge said poison but it was cheap and fun. It's an old radio broadcast complete with commercials. The shadow was a hero from the thirties Short story but good

Title: Boston Blackie, Vol. 2 Author: Hollywood 360, Jack Boyle Narrator: full cast Format: Original Recording Length: 5 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 04-19-16 Publisher: Black Eye Entertainment Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Here are original broadcasts of the old-time radio show featuring amateur detective Boston Blackie. Created by author Jack Boyle, Boston Blackie was a master safecracker and hardened criminal who served time in a California prison. Rehabilitated, he decided to use his knowledge of the underworld to fight crime as an amateur detective. Known as "an enemy to those who make him an enemy, friend to those who have no friend", Boston Blackie's exploits were adapted to film, radio, and television. While investigating cases, Blackie would invariably encounter harebrained Police Inspector Faraday and always solve the crime before Faraday could. The initial friction between Blackie and Faraday gave way as the series continued and Faraday came to recognize Blackie's talents, occasionally even requesting his assistance. Blackie dated Mary Wesley, and for the first half of the series his best pal, Shorty, was on hand. Boston Blackie is played by Richard Kollmar in these 12 exciting episodes, which aired between December 1946 and March 1947: "Mary, Registered Nurse", "Police Impersonator", "The Derailed Gold Train", "Carl Browning Cleaning Shop", "The Search for Jim Gary", "Jacques Pierre and the Diamonds", "Seven Years' Bad Luck for Florence Wells", "Joe Delivers the Goods", "Larry 'The Kid' vs. Savinni", "The Tenth Street Gym and the Stolen Car Ring", "Sam Fisher's Past", and "The Horseroom Thefts of Boston Blackie".

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: From 1949 to 1957, Dragnet pioneered new levels of realism on radio. Every crime investigated by Sergeant Joe Friday was taken from the actual case files of the Los Angeles Police Department, with only "the names changed to protect the innocent". There were multi-layered sound effects; the actors used accurate police lingo, abbreviations, and penal codes; and the show didn't shy away from stories about heinous crimes or stories that had unhappy endings. Created and produced by Jack Webb, Dragnet was much more than "just the facts". Critic Reviews: "By far the most popular police/crime program of all time. It enjoyed enormous success on radio." (Jon David Swartz and Robert C. Reinehr, Handbook of Old-Time Radio) Members Reviews: Murder for gambling debt? What is wrong with people? Trying to murder someone to collect a life insurance? Sad. Good sound quality.

Members Reviews: The Good and the bad. This was a cute little show. Michael Shayne was Played by two different radio actors during the shows run. Wally Maher and Jeff Chandler. I think Wally was miscast. His voice was to goofy sounding to be the voice of a great detective. He sounded like should be doing a comedy show instead of a detective show. He was to chipper and happy to be a hard boiled detective. I couldn't take him serious, and don't get me started on his sidekick and love interest. Jeff Chandler was an improvement. His voice was made for a hard boiled detective and he didn't have an annoying sidekick. He did have Jack Webb before he was Joe Friday on Dragnet, playing another no nonsense detective.

Here's your solution! It's Bob Bailey as troubleshooter-for-hire George Valentine. This man of many talents will take on just about any job...for a price. Frances Robinson co-stars as Brooksie, with Wally Maher as Lieutenant Riley. They stick by George's side as he deals with clients who run the gamut from ruthless to ridiculous. Gangsters, cowgirls, painters, and beauties write George full details about cases of blackmail, swindles, missing persons, and murder in 16 action-packed adventures!

Just finished listening to "Let George Do It - Sweet Poison" released by Radio Spirits. George Valentine and Brooksie are perhaps the most interesting pair of sleuths from the Golden Age of Radio. George Valentine is not a licensed private investigator. Instead, George is more of a problem solver for people in direr straights. He advertised his services in several newspapers and people wrote to him soliciting his help. While Valentine's method of attracting clients was similar to the one used by novelist Dan Holiday in the mystery radio series "Box 13," the first season of adventures for George, Brooksie, and her younger brother Sonny - who was George's office boy - were highly comedic in nature with George always having a helpful check on hand so that the people he helped could pay him at least a thousand dollars minimum. Sonny and the comedy angle was discarded in "Let George Do It's" second season and that's when the ratings for the show soared. Bob Bailey and Frances Robinson shined in their roles for this show, which for most of it's run, was only heard on the West Coast. My favorite episodes in this collection are: "The Man Under The Elm Trees," "The Empress of Fish Falls," "Laura's House," "The Rose Petal Stair Case," "The Coward," and "Sweet Poison." HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! FIVE STARS!

Title: Big Scrapbook Author: Dragnet Format: Original Recording Length: 28 mins Language: English Release date: 05-25-07 Publisher: Radio Spirits, Inc. Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: From 1949 to 1957, Dragnet pioneered new levels of realism on radio. Every crime investigated by Sergeant Joe Friday was taken from the actual case files of the Los Angeles Police Department, with only "the names changed to protect the innocent". There were multi-layered sound effects; the actors used accurate police lingo, abbreviations, and penal codes; and the show didn't shy away from stories about heinous crimes or stories that had unhappy endings. Created and produced by Jack Webb, Dragnet was much more than "just the facts". Critic Reviews: "By far the most popular police/crime program of all time. It enjoyed enormous success on radio." (Jon David Swartz and Robert C. Reinehr, Handbook of Old-Time Radio) Members Reviews: Jewelry heist going to the melting pot Would you listen to Big Scrapbook again? Why? A hotel safe was robbed and the jewelry is stolen. It is heading to the melting pot unless Friday gets the case cracked. Good story.

The Norths were not professional detectives but simply a well-to-do New York couple who stumbled across a murder or two every week and felt compelled to solve the crimes. A 1942 MGM movie starred William Post, Jr. and George Burns' wife, Gracie Allen. That same year, it debuted on radio and was soon generating top ratings with a weekly audience of 20 million fans. Joseph Curtin and Alice Frost originally voiced the radio roles of Jerry and Pam North. Later, Richard Denning and Barbara Britton were cast as the Norths, staying on for its successful transition to television. The characters were later resurrected in spirit with ABC's Hart to Hart, the 1979 through 1984 crime drama about a wealthy husband (Robert Wagner) and wife (Stefanie Powers). Episodes include: "Clarinet in the Country", "Die Hard", "Wheel of Chance", "Bet on Murder", "Family Affair", "No Vacation from Murder", "House of Hate", "Brother Danny", "Masquerade", "Death Is Forever", "Collector's Item", and "Cry Foul".

As Watson did for Holmes, Archie Goodwin, Wolfe's confidential assistant, narrates the cases of the detective genius. Wolfe was an armchair detective who rarely left his luxurious brownstone in New York, so Archie would collect the facts and report back. Wolfe would probably not have taken on many cases had he not needed his client's money to pay for his two true passions: fine food and his orchid collection. Nero Wolfe first appeared on radio on July 5, 1943, in a short-lived NBC series starring Santos Ortega as Wolfe, with Luis Van Rooten as Archie. The second series aired during 1945 on the Mutual network and starred Francis X. Bushman, with Elliott Lewis as Archie. The third and most successful incarnation came to radio in 1950. It starred Sydney Greenstreet as Wolfe, with the part of Archie voiced by several actors, including Lawrence Dobkin, Gerald Mohr, and Harry Bartell. Enjoy 12 of the finest radio episodes of The New Adventures of Nero Wolfe starring Sydney Greenstreet, who is perhaps best known for playing Kasper Gutman, the villain opposite Humphrey Bogart in the film The Maltese Falcon.

Brown took that inspiration and built around it a formula that lived on beyond the show itself. Listeners tuned in every week to hear that door open and be welcomed by the sinister yet often humorous host to join him in a chair near the fire inside the inner sanctum for a story sure to chill them to the bone. Inner Sanctum Mysteries features the best of fright, terror, humor, and fantastic storytelling the series has to offer!

Private Investigator Nick Harris presented dramatizations drawn from his own true-life case files as far back as the 1920s, and the Los Angeles Police Department itself collaborated closely with Don Lee Network producer William N. Robson for the long-running 1930s series Calling All Cars. But these formats fell from favor by the 1940s, with the advent of the "hard-boiled dick" genre of crime programs. An ordinary policeman just doing his job had little chance against the legions of smart-mouthed gumshoes parading across the ether during the postwar years.

The great character actor Sydney Greenstreet played him from 1950-51. Wolfe, the "gargantuan gourmet", solved crimes with an attention to detail that rivaled the great Sherlock Holmes. The overweight detective of Rex Stout's novels refused to leave his elegant brownstone on business, sending his wisecracking, two-fisted assistant, Archie Goodwin, out to do his legwork. This peculiar private investigator preferred tending to his beloved orchids over solving crimes. In fact, the only reason he worked at all was to keep up his lavish lifestyle.

A classic character who looms slouch hat and shoulders above all others of his kind, he is an inevitable as a guilty conscience, an unseen power that awakens within all of us our most deep-rooted fears of mortal retribution.

He demonstrated a breezy insouciance to authority, generally concluded each case with a song sung to his sweetheart, and indulged himself with in-jokes, many referencing other radio detectives. The series ran from 1949 to 1952 and later made its way to television, but radio fans know that their fix of Mr. Diamond can be satisfied only by tuning in to the one and only Dick Powell, and there's no better way to start than with volume 1, with 20 fully restored broadcasts.

Beginning with the first actor to play the Shadow, Orson Welles, it follows with episodes from the eras of Bill Johnstone, Bret Morrison, and John Archer. It also features two episodes from the Australian version of THE SHADOW starring Lloyd Lamble. Which distinguishes this collection from many others, however, is not the diversity of the selection but the quality. Though I've yet to listen to the Australian episodes, I can say that as far as the American ones go, there's only a single bad apple in this particular barrel. It's really a top-notch selection. Here's a brief rundown: Murder on Approval - A diabolical foreign agent infiltrates a U.S. military base for the purposes of spreading a pathogen designed to wipe out the army; it's up to the Shadow to stop him. The Creeper -- A mysterious kidnapper known as The Creeper is terrorizing the wealthy Mayfair District of the city.

Title: The Adventures of Philip Marlowe, Volume 3 Author: Raymond Chandler Narrator: full cast Format: Original Recording Length: 5 hrs and 47 mins Language: English Release date: 02-09-16 Publisher: Radio Archives, LLC Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Gerald Mohr stars as Raymond Chandler's hard-boiled gumshoe in The Adventures of Philip Marlowe, a series based on one of the most popular sleuths in the history of crime fiction. The show first aired in 1947, with Van Heflin in the title role. Chandler disliked the initial incarnation, dubbing it "totally flat". However, in the 1948 revival, Chandler admitted satisfaction, remarking that Mohr's voice "packed personality". Mohr indeed made the role of Marlowe his own, portraying a brash and forceful tough guy who could let fly with the occasional wisecrack. The scripts were equally tough, focusing on hard-hitting action while also showcasing many of the distinguished actors and actresses from Hollywood's Radio Row, including Lawrence Dobkin, Jeff Corey, Betty Lou Gerson, and Harry Bartell.

Even though victorious in World War II, American society still saw criminals in every shadow, villains around the corner, all lying in wait to disrupt the American way of life. Movies, television, books, and entertainment of all sorts capitalized on this anxiety, turning out tales of foreign infiltrators, nefarious plots to overthrow America, and the broad shouldered, barrel chested heroes who stood up for the United States. Radio was no different and one of the best examples of this type of program was Dangerous Assignment. Dangerous Assignment featured tough guy actor Brian Donlevy as Steve Mitchell, a troubleshooting agent of some sort, no real title or number is identified, for an unnamed agency established to protect the country and prevent unrest and turmoil from abroad.

Title: Richard Diamond: Surplus Homicides Author: Blake Edwards Narrator: Dick Powell Format: Original Recording Length: 7 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 01-28-16 Publisher: Radio Spirits Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Dick Powell established himself as a silver screen icon in the 1930s as the apple-cheeked crooning sensation in countless Depression-era musicals. But the 1940s found him playing every tough guy from Philip Marlowe to Richard Rogue...to Richard Diamond, private detective. Powell's portrayal of Diamond,and his flawless chemistry with Virginia Gregg as the detective's socialite girlfriend, Helen Asher, brought the series' admiringly clever scripts to life. Flippancy and fast quips flew between Diamond and ulcerated cop Lieutenant Levinson (Ed Begley), who really did like Rick in spite of the aggravation he caused. But that was child's play compared to the suffer-no-fools contempt the PI had for the boundless idiocy of Sergeant Otis Ludlum (Wilms Herbert).

The series was originally broadcast from New York, with Anthony Ross portraying Times Square Police Detective Danny Clover. Produced by Lester Gottlieb, it was directed by John Dietz. But by the 13th episode, the series moved to Hollywood (still set in NYC) with producer Elliott Lewis directing a new cast, with scripts by Morton Fine and David Friedkin (the duo that would later write and develop TV's popular secret-agent series I Spy). The re-creation of Manhattan's rich, aural tapestry required the talents of three sound effects artists. The opening theme of "I'll Take Manhattan" introduced Detective Danny Clover (now played by Larry Thor) as a hardened New York City cop who worked homicide "from Times Square to Columbus Circle - the gaudiest, the most violent, the lonesomest mile in the world". Clover narrated tales of the Great White Way to the music of Wilbur Hatch and Alexander Courage. Episodes include: "The Val Dane Murder Case" 8/25/49; "The Henry Baker Murder Case" 12/17/49; "The Lt.

Members Reviews: Thrilling Green Hornet Adventures! Just finished listening to "The Green Hornet - The Big Deal" released by Radio Spirits. Mom and Dad always loved listening to the latest collection of Green Hornet adventures from Radio Spirits; and I played this collection for them at the Jacksonville National Cemetery. Usually, I am the only one at the cemetery when I visit on the weekend; and for those who my think I'm violating some rules by playing audio cds, no worries, I'm not. Besides as long as you're not violating any federal and/or state laws, how a person wishes to spend time with their loved ones at a cemetery is only the concern of the person involved. The relationship between Britt Reid and Oliver Perry has always been an intriguing one throughout the run of the radio series. Kato took an instant dislike to private investigator Oliver Perry; and Perry is obsessed over Reid and the belief that the newspaper publisher of the Daily Sentinel is The Green Hornet. After being initially and repeatedly humiliated by The Green Hornet in his attempts to "out" him as Britt Reid; Perry eventually goes to the electric chair because he kills a woman how knows that Reid is The Green Hornet. Is there a metaphor for "outing" running through the Oliver Perry story line? It's hard to say. Perry and Reid started out as friends; but Reid ended their friendship, in of all places, his bedroom after another failed attempt by Perry to out Reid as The Green Hornet. The danger of obsession is definitely highlighted in the Oliver Perry story line, and it's Perry's unwillingness to let the one man who escaped from him multiple times go that proves to be his ultimate undoing. "The Woman and Oliver Perry" in this collection of Green Hornet adventures aptly and chillingly as a brief window into Perry's descent of single minded madness.

It enjoyed enormous success on radio." (Jon David Swartz and Robert C. Reinehr, Handbook of Old-Time Radio) Members Reviews: Volume 20 of 22 Any additional comments? There are 6 episodes in this collection. If you can't find the link to search for the Dragnet Collections then search for DragCOL instead. I've listened to Dragnet for years. These volumes appear as single editions in your library. Most of them have great sound quality. Because each story is individual you will not see reviews on the whole volume very often. Most reviews are on each story. Most original radio episodes were sponsored by cigarette companies. Sometimes a plug for the cigarettes is made by Jack Webb, the primary voice of Dragnet, sometimes other celebrities will join the list of promoters. There are a few extra comments such as to attend church each week, become active in your community, serve on jury duty and even one which recommends reading your Bible during National Bible Week. Each episode has a story of crime and punishment, most have a twist for the culture of the 1940s and 1950s. Most stories could happen today. Heroin, drug use, stealing, forgery, murder - nothing different from our local news, what is different is leaving a dime for use of the phone, lunch plates costing $2, offering smokes to every person they meet along the way. Police officers can no longer afford to keep everyone in cigarettes the way these are passed out. The radio crimes are less violent because language that could cross the airwaves was limited and could not use slang or street terms. This makes Dragnet episodes suitable for all ages. Worthwhile and certainly a great value when you consider the price and how many hours you get of listening. Dragnet is awesome!

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 38 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: It is right from the beginning, when you first hear Boris Karloff as host and narrator, that you suspect you are about to hear something frightening. But when another classically creepy voice is heard, that of Peter Lorre, then you know for certain what is coming! © and (P)2006 Radio Spirits Inc. Members Reviews: A Blast from The Past This book is quite entertaining. It gives the older generation a wonderful piece of nostalgia and, to the younger generation, a peek at what entertained the world before television. I sat in my favorite chair with a cup of hot chocolate, wrapped in a blanket with the lights off. The chills abounded. I certainly will look forward to more of this genre. Great story. Revenge for a frame for Murder! Would you try another book from the author and/or Boris Karloff and Peter Lorre ? This is a radio program. Plus Peter Lorre does NOT appear in this program. However, Boris Karloff does a very Would you recommend Creeps by Night to your friends? Why or why not? Yes I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys old time radio and the Shawshank Redemption. Boris Karloff is wonderful as George Miller. He has an ingenious method of revenge on the rat who put him in prison. Did Boris Karloff and Peter Lorre do a good job differentiating all the characters? How? Boris Karloff is wonderful. Peter Lorre did not apear in this segment. Other actors played the other characters in this play. If this book were a movie would you go see it? Yes, I would see this movie if it existed. The plot was good and had some nice twists to it. Poor audio quality Good story, good performance. The audio quality is low with a great deal of static and hiss. Eerie story & great narrators!! Add together a good thrilling story, a dash each of two legendary classic masters, Boris Karloff & Peter Lorre..what do you get? A savory recipe for classic perfection! The Great 'Willy Pratt, aka Boris Karloff' In Fine Performance William Henry Pratt known as Boris Karloff gives yet another fine creepy performance in this original old Radio Classic. For its age the soundtrack is quite good. I listened by headphones there was no crackling and only a slight hiss, nothing to disturb enjoyment as Karloff does his stuff. All Karloff enthusiasts will be pleased to add this production to their collection.

Title: Case of the Careless Cleaner Author: Adventures of Nero Wolfe Format: Original Recording Length: 29 mins Language: English Release date: 12-21-06 Publisher: Radio Spirits, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 132 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: Nero Wolfe, featured in 46 novels, movies, and television series, first came to radio on April 7, 1943. The great character actor Sydney Greenstreet played him from 1950-51. Wolfe, the "gargantuan gourmet", solved crimes with an attention to detail that rivaled the great Sherlock Holmes. The overweight detective of Rex Stout's novels refused to leave his elegant brownstone on business, sending his wisecracking, two-fisted assistant, Archie Goodwin, out to do his legwork. This peculiar private investigator preferred tending to his beloved orchids over solving crimes. In fact, the only reason he worked at all was to keep up his lavish lifestyle. Members Reviews: Nero Wolfe is awesome! Sydney Greenstreet is so good as Nero Wolfe! These radio plays are so interesting and fun. FIVE Stars Really good little radio play which we found very entertaining. Great Nero Wolfe series which is well worth listening to.

As the Green Hornet, he was often a suspect in the very crimes he ultimately solved. He buzzed into homes across the country, promoting law and order, while staying just one step ahead of the law himself! Join him and his faithful sidekick Kato as they "hunt the biggest of all game, public enemies who try to destroy our America" in 20 nail-biting adventures - many of which are available here to the public for the first time since their original broadcast. Justice is about to be served. The racketeers are about to be routed, the underworld is about to go under, and the criminals are about to feel the sting of the Green Hornet!

Members Reviews: Justice the Green Hornet Way These came out when the US needed a hero that fought for justice and truth. You'll enjoy them. Old time radio strikes again! Would you listen to Green Hornet again? Why? Definitely! I am a fan of the 60's television show as well as the radio series. A crime fighter with good morals, detective skills, a sweet car with gadgets, and a gas gun...ah, what's not to love? What other book might you compare Green Hornet to and why? Comparable to the Lone Ranger radio series. If I remember correctly, Britt is related to the Lone Ranger. Which character as performed by the narrators was your favorite? The Green Hornet for obvious reasons as already stated. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? These are stand alone episodes which do not require a one day sitting. The Green Hornet strikes again. Over nine hours of great action. The Green Hornet combat criminals and spies every episode. I also love the theme music the Flight of the Bumblebee, it's feels like it was just written just for the radio show.

These 18 classic broadcasts will catapult you back to a time when the line between good and evil was stark...and spine chilling. Orson Welles, William Johnstone, and Bret Morrison take on the role of Lamont Cranston, "a man of wealth...a student of science...and a master of other people's minds", and his alter-ego, The Shadow! Margot Stevenson, Marjorie Anderson, and Grace Matthews are heard as Margo Lane, the only person in the world who knew that Cranston and The Shadow were one and the same. Together, they face the frightening and demonstrate to "young and old alike that crime does not pay!"

When a show runs 17 years and has no less than five men play the title role, its quality is bound to vary a little, and that degree of variance is on display here, in yet another Radio Spirits collection. As is the usual case in R.S. compilations, the three most prolific and popular men to play the Shadow are included -- Orson Welles (three episodes), Bill Johnstone (ten episodes) and Bret Morrison (five episodes): unfortunately there are no "new" (meaning recently discovered) episodes to spice this collection up, which is a shame because at this point most serious collectors of THE SHADOW have long since acquired all of these shows. The fine digital remastering Spirits provides in these re-releases is some consolation, but not necessarily enough to pry open my wallet. If you're reading this, you probably know the premise of THE SHADOW: Lamont Cranston, "wealthy young man about town," learned in his youth the secret of invisibility while studying in India, and together with his faithful and lovely assistant Margo Lane, he uses that power to fight crime in all forms. Though certain aspects of the show changed over time (it ran from 1937 to 1954), the basic premise was never altered and the small cast of characters -- Lamont, Margo, Commissioner Weston, Shreevie the cab-driver, Cardona the detective and A.C. Poindexter, the verbose underworld snitch -- remained the same as well.

Members Reviews: A Grand Collection of Epic Adventures of The Shadow! Just finished listening to "The Shadow - Dream of Death" released by Radio Spirits. Nobody exactly knows how Margot Lane discovered that Lamont Cranston was in reality the scourge of the criminal underworld - The Shadow. When the first episode of "The Shadow" aired September 26, 1937 - "The Deathhouse Rescue" - Lamont's and Margot's relationship was firmly established. "I love him," Margot says, when asked why she is helping Lamont. Margot sounded resigned to that fact that she would never have a "normal" life with the man she loved when she made that admission/confession. How and when Lamont and Margot met, and why she knows that he is "The Shadow" was never fully established during the 20-plus year run of the original radio program - though Margot does drop a hint in the final episode of the series "The Vengeance of Angela Nolan" that Lamont first became The Shadow to save her and others. This is notion that Margo was the first person Lamont saved as "The Shdow" is hinted in a newspaper comic strip panel. [Fans of "The Lone Ranger" radio show may be interested to know that there is an origin story on how Tonto and The Lone Ranger first met, and it's completely different from the version in the television show and previous movies - and not the most recent movie flop/disaster.] My favorite episodes in this collection are" "The Three Ghosts," "The Precipice Called Death," "Dream of Death," "Doom and the Limping Man," "Wig Makers of Doom Street," and "Preview of Terror." Highly Recommended! Five Stars! What evil lurks in the hearts of men? This is quite simply one of the finest collection of SHADOW episodes ever assembled. Often, with these package deals, you have to take the bitter with the sweet, but in this case it's hardly necessary.

The Nursery Rhyme Murders Audiobook by The Shadow

Title: The Nursery Rhyme Murders Author: The Shadow Narrator: Bret Morrison Format: Original Recording Length: 23 mins Language: English Release date: 02-02-07 Publisher: Radio Spirits, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 15 votes Genres: Nostalgia Radio, Crime & Mystery Publisher's Summary: "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" From 1930-1954, the wealthy Lamont Cranston was one of the best-known characters on radio, using his mystical powers to fight crime. The only person who knew The Shadow's true identity was his "friend and companion, the lovely Margot Lane". Through the years, The Shadow was portrayed by Frank Readick, Orson Welles, Bill Johnstone, Bret Morrison, and others. As listeners were reminded at the end of every episode, "The weed of crime bears bitter fruit. Crime does not pay! The Shadow knows!" Critic Reviews: "As one of the basic prototypes of what has come to be called Pop Art, the Shadow is unique and irreplaceable, a legend in his own time. A classic character who looms slouch hat and shoulders above all others of his kind, he is an inevitable as a guilty conscience, an unseen power that awakens within all of us our most deep-rooted fears of mortal retribution. There has never been a force quite like him." (Jim Harmon, The Great Radio Heroes) Members Reviews: One of the all time greatest radio mystery dramas Brett Morrison gives one of the greatest performances of all time. Nearly as electrifying as Orson Welles. So difficult to hear... Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? I really loved listening to The Shadow. These recordings are very hard to hear. No road noise, no loud room noise, etc can be going on when listening to these. Sometimes Margo doesn't speak into the microphone, sometimes the extra music and sound effects are louder than the voices. This is likely the way it was originally broadcast but it really does take quiet nights to hear these with any clarity. What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? Bizarre nursery rhymes.
