Dimension X - 50 OTR Shows on CD-R Old Time Radio MP3s
Dimension X was an NBC radio program broadcast on an un-sponsored, sustaining basis from April 8, 1950 to September 29, 1951. The first 13 episodes were broadcast live, and the remainder were pre-recorded. Fred Wiehe and Edward King were the directors, and Norman Rose was heard as both announcer and narrator (his famous opening: \"Adventures in time and space... told in future tense...\").
The programs\' acquisition of previously published stories gave it a strong standing with the science fiction community, as did the choice of well established, respected writers in the field: Isaac Asimov, Robert Bloch, Ray Bradbury, Fredric Brown, Robert A. Heinlein, Murray Leinster, H. Beam Piper, Frank M. Robinson, Clifford D. Simak, William Tenn, Jack Vance, Kurt Vonnegut, Jack Williamson and Donald A. Wollheim. Ernest Kinoy and George Lefferts adapted most of the stories and also provided original scripts.
In Science Fiction Television (2004), M. Keith Booker wrote:It was not until the 1950s that science fiction radio really hit its stride, even as science fiction was beginning to appear on television as well. Radio programs such as Mutual\'s 2000 Plus and NBC\'s Dimension X were anthology series that offered a variety of exciting tales of future technology, with a special focus on space exploration (including alien invasion), though both series also often reflected contemporary anxieties about the dangers of technology.
The series opened with \"The Outer Limit\", Ernest Kinoy\'s adaptation of Graham Doar\'s short story from The Saturday Evening Post (December 24, 1949) about alien contact. A week later (April 15, 1950), the program presented Jack Williamson\'s most famous story, \"With Folded Hands\", first published in the July 1947 issue of Astounding Science Fiction.
With a five-month hiatus from January 1951 to June 1951, the series spanned 17 months. All 50 episodes of the series survived and can be heard today. Later, NBC\'s X Minus One (1955–58) utilized many of the same actors and scripts. (Description from Wikipedia)

Please Note: This is not a commercial product, it is a compilation of material from my personal collection. Because of the nature of digital media, no refunds can be made; defective copies (which are very rare) will be exchanged for same title only. Incompatibility with your equipment is NOT a defect, so please be sure you can play or transfer MP3 files from a CD-R or DVD-R before offerding/ordering! Your DVD player MAY be able to play these discs, but I make no guarantee for this type of use. MP3 disc players are very rare; most people transfer the files for use on a computer and/or an iPod or similar device. In other words: don\'t pop a CD-R or DVD-R into your conventional CD player and then complain that \"the disc doesn\'t play\"--it\'s not supposed to \"play\"--the disc is a storage medium; it is used because a regular CD can only hold 74 minutes of programming.
