I'd be interested in the same, Scott.
You left out one of my favorites: Freddy Agabashian
(driver of the Cummings Special -- and announcer/commentator).

Subject: Gee but I'd love to hear that again
Howdy all,
About this time of year I get all nostalgic for Memorial days spent
close to a transistor radio listening to Sid Collins, Howdy Bell (at
the top of the grandstands in turn two) a very young Paul Page and
more names I can't recall.
I'm sure many remember the REAL Greatest Spectacle in Racing as I do.
I'd love to find recording of these broadcasts, commercials and all.
(Why I didn't tape them with my JC Penney cassette recorder I don't
know.)
Does anyone have recordings of their own? Is there a commercial
source for this?
I'd most like something from the late fifties to the early seventies.
Thanks big,
--
