[jim] angelfire lists this as the 10:15 show. For 9:15 they list #2315 Night Clubs/Town Hall ------------------------------------------------------------------ This was originally dated 12-31-71 ------------------------------------------------------------------ From: "Max Schmid" To: "Jim" Subject: Re: New server Date: Thursday, January 02, 2003 10:56 AM I've been meaning to write you about the show this week. It's from Bob Kaye, and the other side is 12/31/70 Talking about Greenwich Village. I was thinking about playing that one, and still might, but it didn't start off very well, like an idea that didn't gel on the air. I will listen to the rest of it and see if it improves. I figured for NY eve to go with the goods on the other side of the tape. So I checked the logs, and thought maybe I had a better copy in the BKR (Bob Kaye Reel) set, but when I checked it, it wasn't the same show. I always had problems with the dates on those shows, but I copied what the reel said (now missing, of course). But it stands to reason that the show listed as 12/21/71 is actually 1970, and the 1/05/70 is very likely 1971. To me that makes more sense of the contents of the entire reel, copied below. MISC SET: I took the following complete WOR airchecks off a reel, JEAN SHEPHERD BKR01 (90) 12/31/71 New Year's Resolutions & George Ade 01/05/70 College Ethics: Basic Western Philosophies JEAN SHEPHERD BKR02 (90) 11/27/70 Three Bus Stories 12/01/70 Bar Fight with Shore Patrol In Florida JEAN SHEPHERD BKR03 (90) 12/02/70 Talking About Different Games 12/04/70 Three Tales about Public Relations Men JEAN SHEPHERD BKR04 (90) 12/09/70 Frozen in a Block of Ice 12/10/70 Becoming a Duty Corporal
