Description

Radio shows were first syndicated on reel to reel tape, later on LP stereo discs, then CD's and now digitally. Collectors can no longer get their hands on this quality material so the surviving shows that are available will keep going up and up in value. These radio shows were never intended for public use & most were destroyed or returned to the manufacturer after use, so they're very difficult to find.   Founded in 1976 by Norman Pattiz, the original Westwood One was one of the largest producers and distributors of radio programming in the United States.  Based in New York City, they broadcast entertainment, news, weather, sports, talk, and traffic programming to about 7,700 radio stations across the United States.
In January 1981 Pattiz started recording live concerts for broadcast and became a leader in live broadcasts and concert recordings for radio until May, 2011.  Westwood One was most notable for its coverage of live events, and on-location recording of concerts allowing them to provide live music to fans around the country.  In October of 2011 Westwood One merged with Triton Media Group to form the current Westwood One.   The "In Concert: High Voltage" Series is a production of Westwood One Radio Networks.  The series featured the best heavy rock bands of the era.  Some of the featured artists over the years included Led Zeppelin, Metallica, Faith No More, Soundgarden, White Zombie & Pantera.  This original double Reel to Reel concert comes in two plain white 7" boxes with a label on each box and the original cue sheet from 1995.  This episode features Biohazard & Stomp Box.  Broadcast in April, 1995, this show includes 18 live tracks.  Please see scan of cue sheet for detailed track listing and time line.
By the mid 1990's, only a select few Radio stations were still using Reel to Reel tapes for broadcast purposes.  While the open reel format offered the ultimate for sound quality, the format was replaced by the compact disc which required less attention during broadcast and was easier to handle and maintain.  I was told when I acquired this radi show, less than two dozen of these tapes were made by Westwood One.  Now, almost 20 years later, only a handful of these shows are still in existence.  
This extremely rare radio show is being sold from one collector to another. No rights are given or implied.    If you have any questions or would like more information, do not hesitate to ask.    Good luck, and thanks for looking!
