Audiobooks by William Robson

Produced and directed by William N. Robson ("Calling All Cars", "Fort Laramie"), "Luke Slaughter of Tombstone" was one of the many adult westerns to debut on radio during the mid-1950s. The series tells the tale of a former Civil War cavalry officer who became a successful cattleman in the Arizona territory of the 1870s - a rough and tumble life, with many a gunfight and confrontation along the way. Standing as an equal among its counterparts - including "Gunsmoke", "Have Gun, Will Travel", and "Frontier Gentleman" - "Luke Slaughter" remains a beautifully produced program, highlighted by realistic sound patterns, impressive acting by a company of seasoned radio performers, and well-written scripts that still have the power to engross modern listeners.

Calling All Cars, Volume 1

Volume 1 in Calling All Cars, the classic radio show! "Crime does not pay..." -- four words that quickly sum up "Calling All Cars," a popular crime drama heard from 1933 to 1939. One of radio's earliest and most durable police procedural shows, the series' stark and gritty realism is strongly reminiscent of Warner Brothers gangster films of the 1930s - particularly with the presence of real-life LAPD dispatcher Jesse Rosenquist, whose unique voice and name became the show's trademark; Rosenquist contributed to the American lexicon both the program's title and the now time-honored phrase "that is all". None of the actors on the series ever received on-air credit, but sharp-eared radio fans can hear the likes of Elvia Allman, Jackson Beck, Charles Bickford, Gale Gordon, John Gibson, Richard LeGrand, and Hanley Stafford.
