“Classic Radio Network” Launched
Yesterday USA Red, SPERDVAC, REPS and the American Council of the Blind have united to run the Classic Radio Network. “We want to give the listeners something different to listen to. You hear a lot of similar content from other online radio stations,” said SPERDVAC President Corey Harker. “It gives us an opportunity to have enough programming to not bore the listener.”
Programming will be curated using content from the SPERDVAC and REPS libraries as well as long-time classic radio dealer Ted Davenport’s library – the most high quality files. “We expect to offer world premieres of shows that aren’t in circulation, including those from SPERDVAC’s acquisitions that we are even now cataloging and converting to digital format,” said Harker. “This is a joint venture and every group will be equally involved in bringing the united network to life. We’re excited about the potential for a new, stronger, more varied service for classic radio fans,” said Walden Hughes, president of REPS. “It’s very significant that we provide a means to bring back classic radio to the American Council of the Blind’s ACB3 network on Live365 after they needed to suspend it 18 months ago.”
The Stream is available through the “Listen Live” link at the top right of the SPERDVAC website.
