WKBW's WAR OF THE WORLDS (1971)
$ 9.99 SHIPPING INCLUDED!
This is the 1971 rebroadcast of WKBW's (West New York) 1968 "War of the Worlds" broadcast. It is VERY similiar to the Orsen Welles broadcast of 1938, but updated for 1968 and Buffalo/Grand Island. Includes a brief opening and closing explanations by the radio station manager.
This is a VERY chilling presentation of the HG Wells story. It uses NO ACTORS but only the news personell of WKBW. It sounds AUTHENTIC and real.
This is a great little piece of War of the Worlds history. Everyone is familiar with the 1938 Orsen Welles broadcast, but this one is much more realistic and gripping. Also, the DJ at the beginning of the show is a riot. I don't know if ANYONE on the radio still talks that fast!
As a FREE BONUS, included is an one hour audio CD of 1955's LUX radio's adaptation of the 1953 "War of the Worlds" film produced by George Pal. Stars Dana Andrews and Pat Crawley
Each CD is approximately 1 hour in length.
If you are a fan of "War of the Worlds" and NOT heard this, you NEED this CD!

BBC Day of the Triffids Radio Play (1957)
$ 9.99 Shipping Included
This is a 3 audio CD set of the BBC's 1957 adaptation of John Wyndham's "Day of the Triffids" Quality is excellent.
This is a VERY faithful adaptation of John Wyndhams novel about killer plants taking over the world after the vast majority of humanity is blinded by a meteor storm. What I found particularly interesting is the attention to social issues arising out of the the protagonists' predicatment.
VERY gritty realism abounds. Also the solution to repopulating the planet I find almost worthy of H.G. Wells' sense of irony. FINALLY a science fiction show where the protagonists act at LEAST as intelligently as the listener might!
HEAR! The killer triffids attack their BLIND HUMAN prey!
HEAR! The "lucky" man with 10 wives!
HEAR! The world come to an end???
Total program length is 3 hours. Each CD contains two 1/2 hour episodes.
