It's time to reach back into our Jean Shepherd Vault and pull out a Christmas related show for the Library of Sound Volume 261. I recorded this one on March 4, 1975. But the show was originally broadcast live on December 17, 1974. Your Humble Host was busy back then as at one time I was recording 3 Shep shows a week. But thank goodness for those original tapes of mine, I can now play them for you. Enjoy this Part One of a 2 part Shepherd show (unusual for Jean to do a 2 parter, but here's one occasion). We'll have Part 2 coming later this week on the Library of Sound!
Philip Marlowe is back on the Library of Sound Volume 235 as he looks into the case of the Long Rope originally heard February 5, 1949. Your Humble Host is here to pick up any stray strands that fall from The Long Rope!
Your Humble Host is back with an all new Holiday Thanksgiving edition of The Great Gildersleeve. This one from November 26, 1952 as Gildy is distracted from the turkey for just a moment when he gets a letter from the lovely Miss Tuttle. Well, suddenly things are just a bit brighter or is this call just for the
birds. You'll find out what we is talking about when Bob Hope, Jaye P. Morgan, Jimmy Durante, Bing Crosby, Jo Stafford, William DeVaughn & the wonderful Doris Day (that's her in our picture with this show) join us at this joyful Thanksgiving time. I give thanks for our musical Sounds Like Radio with Gildersleeve and our always fascinating Library of Sounds.
Enjoy this Thanksgiving time.
1Today Your Humble Host has a double bonus for Thanksgiving for you. A Bing Crosby thanks song & an all new Jean Shepherd Thanksgiving show from November 25, 1965. Grab one more slice of pumpkin pie and enjoy Bing & Shep.
The Library of Sound is here with an all new Thanksgiving edition of the Bing Crosby Show. Joining Bing for some turkey fun are Peggy Lee, Joe Venutti and Frank Fay. All from November 23, 1949. Your Humble Host invites you to join in the fun and the spirit of Thanksgiving with Bing.

Happy Turkey Day!
Your Humble Host, quite unconsciously has created a very happy and uplifting show. While I didn't plan it I have selected some really great and positive songs. I had to ask myself, why? Then I realized I am feeling so very very good for our country the best I've felt since the 1980's. Yes, our country's back on the right track again. And for that matter so is little Leroy on the Great Gildersleeve. In fact Leroy's been so good recently that Gildy's worried. Well, we have a few people here that can give Gildy a hint as to why Leroy's feeling so good (and Your Humble Host too). On hand today to add to our cheer are Mitch Miller (yes, we're going to Sing Along with Miitch!), Joni James, Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Buddy (Uncle Jed from the Beverly Hillbillies) Ebsen, Sergio Mendez & Wanda Sa, David Allyn & Annette Hanshaw. Time to smile again and boy am
I smilin'.
On the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 377 Your Humble Host is here with The Shadow as he goes up against "The Black Rock". You talk about hardened criminals that Black Rock is the hardest. From November 13, 1938 get ready, here comes The Shadow.

Time to smile again and now we have something we can finally smile about.
Jean Shepherd's back here on the Library of Sound. This week Shep talks all about that Magic Twig and having success thru casting spells. Is it possible?, well it seems that way on November 8, 1965 when Jean talked all about it. What was then is here right now thru the magic of tape and Your Humble Host. Jean Shepherd lives again on the Library of Sound podcast!
It's time for the Whistler to make a return to the Library of Sound Volume 375. Your Humble Host brings you Whistler episode "The Letter" originally hear August 29 , 1942. It's weird, strange and a bit fun. Enjoy The Whistler.
It's Bing Movie Time on the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 374. Today Your Humble Host will be bringing you the radio version of Bing's classic movie, "Welcome
Stranger". The original movie's stars are here too, Barry Fitzgerald & Bing Crosby. That's Barry & Bing you see in our picture with this show in a scene from the movie when Bing's annoying Barry as he shaves and sings at the same time. A funny scene and a very enjoyable story. Get ready to smile with Bing & Barry!
Your Humble Host is back with an all new Sounds Like Radio! It's Volume 181 as Gildersleeve thinks it would be a good idea to install a suggestion box in the
family home. What could go wrong, huh?
Well now a few folks could tell you like Slim Whitman, Shelley Fabares (our picture with this show), Bing Crosby, Helen Kane/Betty Boop, Jimmy Dean, Tammy Wynette & Arthur Godfrey. From October 29, 1952 let's listen to The Great Gildersleeve and some fine music.
Your Humble Host is feeling great once again, our
country's back on the right track and Jean Shepherd is here with some inspirational messages & self-improvement to boot. It's the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 373 and our Jean Shepherd show for today was originally taped by me on April 8, 1975, that's right these are MY own original tapes recorded back in the day when Shep ruled the airwaves, well, sort of.
Sam Spade returns to the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 373 to investigate the "Dry Martini Caper". It was originally heard August 1, 1948. Your Humble Host has applied gobs of Wild Root Cream Oil to his hair just to get in the mood for Sam Spade. I love the Wild Root Cream Oil song Sam sings at the end of the show.
Your Humble Host returns to his Bing Vault and finds an
excellent Philco Radio Time show from March 2, 1949. Today Bing Crosby welcomes special guests Burl Ives & Dinah Shore, 2 really great singers and almost legends in their own time. It's Bing time on the Library of Sound Volume 372 and it's happening now!
Your Humble Host finds it necessary to remind all of what it is to be an American. President Reagan in his farewell address reminded us all of what We The People
means. Freedom is not free it needs to be guarded and protected. President Ronald Reagan left us these wise words of wisdom for our future. So let's "do this for the Gipper" (that's President Reagan for you young folks) and be proud once more as we Make America Great again.
Your Humble Host feels it's long past time to get
serious. In that spirit we offer a true horror. Not for Halloween, for our country. It was 1965 when the great broadcaster Paul Harvey made this chilling prophesy. Sadly it has become all too true. Is it too late? Not if we get serious and turn this around. Listen as Paul Harvey in 1965 predicted a sad future. Let's not continue down this path. A great country with great freedom demands great responsibility from the people.
Your Humble Host says time to take a break from the
shudders and have a laugh right here. It's the Phil Harris Alice Faye Halloween Show and a funny one too from
October 30, 1949. The Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 369 is here for Halloween with our ukulele too.
Your Humble Host asks the proverbial question, are you
ready for a week of spooks here on Sounds Like Radio? Hmm? Well, let's start the week by getting quiet, Quiet Please it's time for Quiet Please. But they say "Don't Tell Me About Halloween" as it was originally heard on October 27, 1947. I wonder why? Are they spooked already? Now I'm curious.
