THE HOT ONES WITH DAVE ROBERTS AIRED WEEKLY FOR ONE HOUR ON THE LEGENDARY RKO RADIO NETWORKS AND FOR ITS FINAL YEAR ON THE NEWLY MINTED UNITED STATIONS RADIO NETWORK. IT WAS A LEGENDARY AND IS SOUGHT AFTER BY COLLECTORS BECAUSE THERE ARE SO FEW AVAILABLE. IT COMES ON ONE LP IN MINT NEW CONDITION ALONG WITH ITS CUE SHEETS IN EXCELLENT CONDITIONOn the air, Dave Roberts was a smooth, straight-ahead Bay Area disc jockey hosting the afternoon drive for KYA and K101. Off the air he was “Dr. Dave,” armed with a doctorate in communications research and a knack for launching and driving radio formats “Dave was energetic, but not in a hyped-up, Top-40 style,” said Ben Fong-Torres, longtime radio columnist for The Chronicle. “He did the right thing for any format he was working. A real pro.”His voice was heard nationwide on “The Hot Ones With Dave Roberts,” an interview show syndicated to 200 stations, and “American Top 40,” where he filled in for legendary radio host Casey Kasem.As a program director, Roberts’ boldest move was to switch KCBS-FM from classic hits to album-oriented rock. He came up with the call letters KRQR and the handle “the Rocker.” When KRQR went live in 1982, it became one of the last hit stations in the golden age of album-oriented rock. “KCBS was a stodgy oldies format, and New York management did not think it would be CBS to play hard rock,” said Peter B. Collins, morning host on KRQR. “Dave did the research and proved them wrong. KRQR lasted for 10 years and bested KMEL and KKCY (“The City”). We even beat KFOG in some years.” That success got him a promotion to director of programming for CBS FM stations nationwide. “Dave gave me my big break, and the big breaks for many other people,” Collins said. “He was a good guy in an industry with a lot of creeps.”David Bob Kelliher was born Nov. 1, 1948, in Los Angeles, where he grew up spinning the dial on a transistor radio. At Yucaipa High School, east of Los Angeles, he played trumpet in the marching band until he was kicked out for riffing a solo during the national anthem. He later played trumpet and guitar in the Peppermint Trolley Company, a six-piece prom band with a recording contract and regular gigs at Disneyland. Convinced that he would be drafted, Kelliher enlisted, instead, into the Marines and was able to get an assignment to the Defense Information School in Hawaii. He served out his tour as a radio and TV producer for the Marine Corps. His deep voice also earned him the job of narrator for “Moments of Valor,” a program syndicated by the Marines.After his discharge in 1970, Roberts used the GI Bill for nine years of college, culminating in his doctorate from the University of Oregon. At one of his first radio jobs, a station manager told him the name David Kelliher would never cut it on air. When Kelliher said his middle name was Bob, he became Dave Roberts, though nobody away from work ever called him that.In the late 1980s, Roberts left radio stations to form a consulting firm with Dave Cooke, a former news director. Roberts/Cooke Media Research and Resources operated out of Roberts’ house in Mill Valley. This was when drivers were still punching buttons on the car radio during the commute, and the major news/talk stations on the AM dial went to Roberts/Cooke to figure out how to get listeners to stop punching.“Dave had a Ph.D. and a lot of experience both on the air and in program management,” Cooke said by phone from Texas. “He was able to combine these talents and skills to effectively interpret what stations needed to do to improve their ratings.”At the time, Roberts was married to Pam Hamilton, who ran the public relations firm Hamilton Ink, also out of their home in Mill Valley. That marriage ended in divorce and soon after, Roberts met attorney Marsha Cox at a party. They became part of a circle of friends that toured Italy in the summer of 1992, and along the way, Roberts proposed. “We had our first date after we got engaged,” she said by phone from Michigan. It was sometime later that Cox learned “that my last name was not going to be Roberts, but Kelliher,” she recalled. “I’d never heard the name Kelliher before, which was odd because I had met his parents.” It was smoothed over just in time to correct the wedding invitations. The ceremony was held at Landmark Vineyards in Kenwood in January 1993. After a short stint in Mill Valley, they moved to Austin, Texas, where they lived for 20 years. Roberts built a broadcast studio in their home and did radio and TV voice-over work. When they moved to Michigan, Roberts built another recording studio and continued to work up until his health became a full-time job.“Dave was a really funny and happy-go-lucky guy. Everybody liked him,” Cooke said. “He was also one of the smartest and nicest people I have ever known.”This show aired on FEBRUARY 13, 1984 AND FEATURED A FULL HOUR OF SHEENA EASTON, LIVE IN STUDIO WITH DAVE ROBERTS FEATURING INTERVIEWS AND COMMENTARY ABOUT HER LIFE AND MUSIC. EVEN THE COMMERCIALS ARE FUN TO LISTEN TO AFTER ALMOST 40 YEARS. FUNNY HOW WE HATED THEM THEN BUT NOW THEY BRING BACK FOND MEMORIES. ON THIS SHOW YOU WILL HEAR CHEVROLET, REVLON FLEX, SNICKERS CANDY, EDGE SHAVING GEL, AND ATARI. SO WHAT ARE THE BIG QUESTIONS IF YOU ARE NOT SURE ABOUT RADIO SHOWS? LET ME TELL YOU BUT FIRST....Allow me tell you my own personal story of discovering the wonder of radio shows. I discovered radio shows quite by accident while reading one of my favorite (long since departed) magazines called "Discoveries" (It was later bought by the same company that publishes "Goldmine" which I personally always considered a lesser publication, but that is another story. This was before ebay became the driving force in radio show sales (and everything else) in the later 1990's. I was especially attracted in "Discoveries" to a two page (or more) spread in each issue by a guy called "The Old Hippie". Let me tell you, the Old Hippie had it all. He was a real pioneer. Way before anyone knew what radio shows even were let alone that they could be bought as rarities, he had the market cornered.Most shows that he advertised were way beyond my budget but I drooled over those pages every issue and once in awhile I could afford one or two. Now, I have attempted in my own humble way to take on the mantle of "The Old Hippie". I have listed over 11,000 unique radio shows of all genres for you all to drool over, and most at prices, hopefully, that collectors can better afford! I want to make available to collectors what I could not afford and especially in these days of higher prices and lesser availability.Radio shows are harder and harder to find in quantity and the prices for the ones still out there just go higher and higher as they disappear from the market. However, because of my large presence on eBay, I am often contacted with selling offers, some of which I take advantage of and some I have to pass on because of the prices. I have found that by buying in bulk, even when many or most of the shows are lesser known but still amazing shows, I can offer the best prices on all titles. NOW, EXACTLY WHAT IS A RADIO SHOW? WHY COLLECT THEM? WHERE DO THEY COME FROM? Well, those are good questions, especially if you have never known of them. Radio Shows are syndicated productions by one of several large and small distributors who supply broadcast product to radio stations normally during weekends when the usual air personalities have a break. Many air on Saturday or Sunday mornings, afternoons or evenings or less often during overnight segments. They often feature some of the best known voices for their genre from across the country thus the Dick Clark's and Casey Kasem's and Rick Dees and Dick Bartley and so many others. People collect them for various reasons. Some just collect the series because they like it and want them all. Some collect their favorite artists or genre of music. Rather than an album by the artist or a compilation downloaded through iTunes or wherever, they have a unique presentation of their favorite artist or music not available anywhere else and always with dj comments which were very entertaining. Some collect interviews with their favorite artists as most shows had interview segments. Some collect commercials especially old car commercials but certainly not limited to only those. AND, these shows are in limited quantity. They were pressed just for affiliate stations in the United States. Many have just a few still in circulation. Some of the more popular shows may have as few as a couple hundred of each week's show pressed but think about it. A couple hundred for some 200 million Americans and millions of overseas collectors who look for unique presentations of their favorite artists or form of music is about as rare as rare can be. This show itself was only ever sent to the top 175 Metro markets. Smaller markets had to take the satellite feed once it became available. So at the very most there were only 175 copies of each show EVER. How do you compute rareness. 175 copies for the whole United States market and 38 years ago or more means that could possibly not be ANY more of these shows and at the very most there are 175. How many survived as did the ones I have is anyone's guess. This is because most stations just threw these away after network broadcast since they could not be aired again because of the dated commercial content and most stations had limited storage space. (Believe me I know; I worked at one for over seven glorious years!) So it is likely that very few still exist and they are increasingly hard to find They were first distributed on reel to reel tape or on lp, later on CD and even later (after 2000 for most shows) on CDR. Now they are not available at all to collectors since they are distributed by digital download much like you get your music from iTunes. These shows become rarer and rarer every day because the people who buy them hold on to them. The shows that you get now and hold on to will never decrease in value and only increase. I have prided myself since the start to provide the best and fairest cost with a guarantee that you will be happy or I refund your money. I sell them for near what I bought them for. I give volume discounts and discount postage always. As the postal service increases their rates, my shipping rates over the years have decreased. And, I have one of the biggest radio show libraries in the world consisting of over fifteen thousand unique shows, so many that I don't even know all that I have and am sometimes amazed when I go to look for one show and find another that I did not realize I had. Finally, it is Americana at its best. Whether the show be from the 60's or 2000's, rock, countdown, oldies, country, classical, religious, jazz or big band, it is unique and home grown. And you just can't find them anywhere. Even record stores that still exist will rarely have any. Radio shows are wonderful representations of the real golden age of music radio. And every one you buy is an original, not a copy, not a remake - all are limited editions in the hundreds at most and most, like this special show, much less. Once you get hooked, like me, it is a love affair for life! Welcome to the Club! Remember, when you buy this show, not only will you own the tunes but also interspersed between songs is fascinating commentary on the artists and songs that only Dick Bartley and the gang can provide. Also, keep in mind that this and all the oldies shows are not just about the music - the music can be found anywhere. It is the mixture of great music and great announcing that makes it so entertaining. As well, it is a piece of radio history. You just aren't going to find these shows anymore. Think of what they will be worth in a few years! (IF you wanted to sell.) I am selling to share with other music lovers what I was able to get at a reasonable price. As always, I charge only shipping on the first show you buy for U.S. buyers and for my international friends, so the more you buy the more money you will save. Good Luck and God Bless You.
