Summary
Reliving the golden age of radio, Radio Spirits presents sixteen episodes of radio's hottest crime drama, complete with guest stars, such as Henry Fonda and Burt Lancaster.
Radio Spirits presents 10 hours of cops and robbers, good guys and bad guys, right and wrong (mostly wrong). Listen in as legendary performers, including James Cagney, play fast and loose with the law. Taking chances and playing the odds with this group may prove very costly. You may find that some of the high rollers have charmed you and some of the hoodlums have you hoping that justice is not strictly served. The only sure bet, is that you will enjoy these digitally remastered stories.
