    Old Radio Shows - boxing matches & dramas

    I didn't know this was "a thing."

    Collecting old radio shows of classic fights? Seems like an interesting hobby.
    Also, collecting radio shows ABOUT boxers.

    It's in the COMPILATIONS section of her site. She's just added them, so I haven't yet sprung for them, but I've bought stuff from her and she's very reliable.

    I see that for some reason the words M - P - 3 are being censored as ******. But yes, the files are in that format so you can put the disc in your computer or CD player and hear HOURS AND HOURS of this stuff.

    Jeez...three volumes of play-by-play, dramas involving the ring, and I guess even comedy sketches. Nice to see boxing appreciated.

    I will have to listen to some of that. Those radio announcers were real artists of the word and replaced eyes.

      Yeah, I'd be interested in giving these a listen! Boxing has always tended to attract intelligent, literate, and creative voices, so I'm sure these won't disappoint.
