CHICKENMANIA: THE CHICKENMAN STORY
"He's everywhere, he's everywhere!" Here's the official story of the most fantastic crime-fighter the world has ever known. On Cassette One, creator Dick Orkin presents one full hour of selected historical/hysterical episodes...plus a seldom heard adventure produced in 1995.
Cassette Two features the fearless fighter engaged in a courageous, self-appointed mission to crush the evil Earth-Polluters. Contains weekend episodes you may never have heard before! PLUS: The Chickenman Story! In cheap booklet form, here's the never-before-told, the unvarnished and unexpurgated story of how the weird bird was hatched. Orkin offers vivid memories of the Fantastic Fowl's inception and conception back in the late '60s. AND you get some extremely wise sayings of Police Commissioner Norton.

- DR. DON ROSE (KFRC, San Francisco)
- CHARLIE TUNA (KHJ, Los Angeles)

Listen ... learn ... and laugh!
VOLUME 2
This has got to be the funniest two hours you've ever heard! For openers, there's HOWARD HOFFMAN'S legendary "NINE" tape, featuring the world's ultimate radio format! Next you'll hear complete 30-minute airchecks of:
- DON IMUS (WHK, Cleveland) - yep, the incredible Imus-In-The-Morning once was Imus-In-The-Afternoon...funnier, racier, and more outlandish than ever!
- RICK DEES (WHBQ, Memphis) - how good was he before he moved to L.A.? Hear why he "owned" the market! Totally outrageous!!!
- THE REAL BOB JAMES (WGAR, Cleveland) - fast-paced and funny...a polished pro who never lets up!
- DAVE HULL (KMPC, Los Angeles) - If you're not from L.A., you might not be familiar with Dave's zany & inspired brand of radio.
If you use the phone at all during your show, you've got to hear this aircheck! It's impossible to hear it without laughing out loud, again and again.
VOLUME 3
Here's a great collection of major air personalities whose styles are drastically different from one another:
- ROSS & WILSON (Z93, Atlanta) - a classic example of a well-prepared, funny show, with lots of characters & show features.
- DEANO DAY (WCXI, Detroit) - a giant among country radio personalities and one of the most popular DJs in that city's history.
- THE GREASEMAN (WAPE, Jacksonville) - there's no way to describe what the Greaseman does; you've got to hear it. We can say this, however: He does tend to get a bit off-color...but his audience loves him (which explains why while working in the nation's 55th largest market, he was paid more than most Top 10 market personalities)! Brilliant - and totally unique!
- And as a special treat, BOBBY OCEAN'S last day at KFRC (San Francisco).
VOLUME 4
Another fantastic two-hour cassette, featuring:
- The legendary LOHMAN & BARKELY (KFI, Los Angeles).
- The outrageous JONATHON BRANDMEIER (WLUP, Chicago).
- GARY BURBANK (WLW, Cincinnati), a master of the hysterically funny produced bit.
- and the brilliance of BARSKY (WCAU-FM, Philadelphia).
VOLUME 5
Wow! World-Class Personality Radio that will leave you breathless!
If you believe "women can't be funny & aggressive" on the air, then obviously you've never heard SLIM (KFRC/San Francisco)!
If you think a jock has to tell jokes to be entertaining, then you've never heard L.A. Air Force commander TERRY MOSS, offering a lesson to all jocks who want to learn how to use prepared material effectively (and effortlessly).
If you've forgotten how fun & exciting a CHR night jock can sound, the 30 minutes you'll spend with GEORGE McFLY (WAVA/Washington, D.C.) will be more than worth the price of admission.
And you don't know how good radio satire can be until you've heard This Is Spinal Tap co-writer & co-star and Saturday Night Live veteran HARRY SHEARER (KCRW/Los Angeles)!
