Alka-Seltzer Time - Single Episodes


(4.7 estrellas; 12 reseñas)

Alka-Seltzer Time (also known as The Alka-Seltzer Show) was a 15-minute radio series that aired weekdays on both CBS Radio and the Mutual Broadcasting System. The show began in 1949 and featured baritone Curt Massey along with Martha Tilton. Initially titled The Curt Massey Show, it was later renamed to highlight its sponsor, Alka-Seltzer, in 1952.

The series was known for its informal song sessions, with Massey and Tilton performing alongside Country Washburne and His Orchestra. They sang a variety of songs, including "Honey, I'm in Love with You" and "Istanbul, Not Constantinople." The show also included themed episodes, such as "Go West" and "Salute to Hawaii." Massey and Tilton continued to collaborate on various shows throughout the late 1950s.

A gem among gems.

Despite the modest size of this collection, it may be my favorite offering of the OTRR group. Incidentally thank you again for putting all of these together, I've listened to so many over the years and it has brought a lot of pleasure to me. I should go back and leave more reviews. This particular collection is light hearted and gentle, and the two main stars have genuine rapport. There's one episode in particular where he makes a slight pronunciation gaff, follows with what I'm sure is an off-script joke, and they both have a little chuckle over it, I don't know why but it's extremely endearing. These are excellent listening quality, and well-presented.

The magic of melody

This series of short little shows is excellent and a reminder that there was a kinder and much more pleasant world before the 1960s. Every song is a winner and the show is presented in a most affable and cordial way.

WONDERFUL!

Thanks for making this available .... a real blast from the past! At age 11, I looked forward to this daily (M-F) show. Until now, I never knew what they looked like. They were a great couple, indeed! Check them out on Wikipedia!
