Radioshows on Vinyl

[Klaus74]

Hello to all Vinyl-maniacs.
Does somebody here also collect Dire Straits-Mark Knopfler Radioshows on Vinyl ?? I do.
I have some King Bisquit Flower Hour, BBC-Rock-Hour, Masters of Rock, Westwood One Radio Network, Superstars in Concert by Westwood One and so so on. Radioshows offer sometimes interesting interviews with the artists, Studio or well produced Live-Recordings. Funny are also the old radio-advertisement-spots on it. I also collect Radio-Shows on CD-Sets, but NOT the CD-R versions.
Here are some pics.
For those who are not familiar with Radio-Shows. That are specially produced Vinyls or CDs with Interview- and Music-content by a Band, a Star, or as a compilation with different artists to a special topic. You can say it is a complete radio-programme on Vinyl or CD for Air-Play only. Those records aren´t for sale regulary, because they have also a Promotional-Record status. They were produced for Radio-Stations and Music-Archives only. That makes it interesting for collecting such records.

A further 4-LP-Set Radioshow by King Bisquit Flower Hour with the San Antonio gig 1985.
Produced in best sound-quality for Radio-Airplay through DIR ABC-Rock-Radio-Network
Played on US-Radio in November 1985
In the next days i will receive another Radio-Show on 2-LP-Set with Cue-Sheets, which was unknown to me. A NBC-Radioshow called Profile.

Today it arrives at my home.
Dire Straits - Profile ´86 2-LP-Set with Cue-Sheet, 1986 released by NBC-Radio-Entertainment. I never knew that show, so it was a big surprise to discover it online.
Feat. the well known tunes and portions of interviews by Mark, John Illsley and Ed Bicknell. 
PS: I catalogized it on Discogs in the Dire Straits column.

I´m still digging Radio-Show-Vinyls.
Next time i will receive the 2-LP-Radioshow Superstars in Concert by Westwood-One with Dire Straits / The Police, split-show with two live-concerts and the Off The Record Radioshow hosted by Mary Turner, also a 2-LP-Set by Westwood One productions.

[Klaus74]

Very nice items.

[Klaus74]

H jbaent. Yes, thanks. I got them from a dutch seller on ebay eu.
In the moment, there ist nothing very special or very thrilling items for me on ebay, but, maybe in the next time, i´m still hoping, that there are coming some cool items. I´m still waiting for an US promo-cd by John Illsley and an Australian original ticket from February 1986, from BIA-Worldtour in Melbourne.  I also have contact with a trader on discogs, on the subject of Turkish issues of Dire Straits vinyls. I only have BIA as Turkey edition on blue-silver Philips label. Manufactured in Instanbul trough Plaksan pressing plant.

I am also collecting vinyl DS/MK radio show.
I've got most of the one you showed in this post

[Klaus74]

Hi Frelon94, cool. Radioshows are very intresting records. I also collect them on CDs, but NOT that CD-R stuff, but the factorypressed original CDs only. Most of them were pressed in the USA through Metatech American Systems.

[Klaus74]

Next time i will receive a 3-LP-BOX-Set from USA. Radioshow Superstars in concert series from 1989. Simple Minds and Dire Straits live on 3 LP-Albums from Westwood One Series. That edition was on my wantlist, also the 3-LP-BOX-Set of 1987 and the 2 x 2-LP-Set Dire Straits-Radioshow Legends of Dire Straits from NBC-Radio Network, also from 1989.
