Hello Again, friends of great music! This show, for all you vinyl lovers, and there are a bunch out there judging by the number of you that have responded to my rare and old vinyl radio shows, is a rare vinyl that you will rarely find on eBay.
It is called THE ROBERT W. MORGAN SPECIAL OF THE WEEK and aired on the AMERICAN BROADCASTING COMPANY/WATERMARK Network.
It was an enormously popular show in its day AND WAS A LIMITED EDITION SERIES WHICH MADE IT EVEN RARER.
It was composed of a one hour weekly special, each week devoted to one seminal artist in the history of rock and roll presented by a man well qualified to do such a series, the legendary Robert W. Morgan.
He was known as one of the original 'Boss Jocks' of radio, a revolutionary product of the 60's that started in Southern California and quickly spread throughout the country If you were a fan of rock radio in the 60's, you knew well the format.
Among Morgan's accomplishments he narrated the famous 48 hour History of Rock and Roll , the definitive on air encyclopedia of Rock. It was the first ever 'rockumentary"
He remained famous throughout the country until his early retirement in January 1998 because of his treatment for lung cancer from which he died in May of that year at the age of 60.
But his memory lives on in shows like this show,
ROBERT W. MORGAN SPECIAL OF THE WEEK which aired weekly and was often paired with the early Casey Kasem American Top 40 shows from the same syndicator, ABC/Watermark.
There is no better show available to spotlight both the gift that Robert W Morgan brought to radio and the artists that he profiled than this one.
This show does not have cue sheets, the subject of each special hour is printed on the album cover and pressed on the record itself. Some special editions of the show that were sent to stations to see if they were interested in syndicating the show do not have cue sheets since the main purpose of a cue sheet is to instruct board operators as to when to cut from the show to their local commercials and spots.
Most all the shows were sponsored by Budweiser.
Each show was an hour in length and featured one artist or group which appeared in the studio with Morgan.
