Before "Larry King Live" on the TV there was...

"The Larry King Show" on the radio, via the Mutual Radio System. The only reason I recorded it was because I was big on the Beatles at that time. I have no other tapes of this programme. Listen, and you'll get to hear the "king of the softball interview" tossing weak pitches like he does now....just doing it on the radio!! His voice still sounds like a frog suckin' the sewage off the East River.

News programme from Brezhnev era Radio Moscow.

This is a real audio clip of a newscast from Brezhnev era Radio Moscow. It was recorded sometime in 1981. This is truly a "blast from the past" as broadcasts from Moscow have not sounded anything like this recording in years.
