- Synopsis
- "Mel Simons has become an institution on late night radio in Boston. For more than 25 years he has entertained listeners with trivia quizzes based on his unique and massive collection of recorded sound. From the earliest recordings of presidents and celebrities to the most recent TV theme songs, Mel includes something for everyone. Central to his collection and closest to his heart is radio. If Mel had been born a few decades earlier he might have been a radio actor or a member of the studio orchestra. But fortunately for us his calling has been to collect the sounds and memorabilia of the era known as the Golden Days of Radio. Mel's life-long desire to gather and preserve artifacts of this important part of American cultural history has led to the creation of this fun book. Share this book with a relative or friend or curl up in your favorite chair and enjoy your own personal quiz show. It will make you smile as you see the names of actors, characters and places that have been a part of your life since you first heard them on the radio long ago. It may make you laugh out loud as you recall people, shows, songs and even commercials you thought you had forgotten." Bookshare offers many other books about old-time radio.
