Anyone else out there listen to OTR while building? (OTR, for those who are not aware, is "Old Time Radio")
Thanks to a pal of mine, I got hooked on OTR about ten years ago and in the last few years I've really gotten into it. I build mostly WWII subjects and seeing as the golden age of Radio was the late 30's, 40's and early 50's, well, it all just fits.
I love listening to music of the era as well. Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman and the Dorsey Brothers... especially some of the broadcasts such as GM's Moonlight Serenades and the Chesterfield Shows.
There's a neat feeling you get when you sit down to an evening of building with Jack Benny, The Shadow, Sherlock Holmes, Lux Radio Theater, wartime news broadcasts or any of the many other OTR programs playing in the background.
I've got an article posted on my website, dealing mainly with OTR & Modeling, if anyone would care to take a look. Go to the Ambience page. www.spasticforplastic.1hwy.com
I apologize in advance for all the pop-ups!
