Reviews

Silence is golden


(5 stars)

This is, to me, the single most important set of the Gunsmoke radio show on the internet. Yiou can actually hear the show without all the annoying commercials and much of the incidental music. Thank you very much for making this available.

Better on the radio.


(5 stars)

Born 1944. So nice to here Frank Canon. Real tough vocalization. May sound funny but it relaxed me this afternoon. Thanks for these.

Fantastic audio


(5 stars)

Great program of course but terrific audio too.
