Dave The Rave
"Relics and Rarities Show"

There are plenty of "oldies but goodies" shows on the radio that like to countdown the hits. Dave the Rave's Relics and Rarities Show doesn't count down anything. because most of the tunes that Dave plays never hit the Top 40 or the Top 100. Dave the Rave combines cool hits with many of the songs that sound like they should have been a hit.

This doesn't mean that Dave is trying to play bad music, or simply trying to play obscure music simply for the sake of being obscure. Quite the opposite! Dave the Rave is giving credit to music that deserve a second chance to be heard. The 45's that simply fell through the cracks and will leave you scratching your heads in disbelief that what you just heard never became a Top 40 hit.

Dave the Rave has spent countless hours searching for those hit sounding 45's that never entered into the Top 40 but had the sound potential to have done so. The show is very diverse in the music that it features. You will hear soul, surf, garage, doowop, teeners, and instrumentals. Relics and Rarities loves to feature local hits, record store rarities, lost B-sides and original versions of Top 40 hits. Many of the 45's in his collection is the kind of music that you would be paying thousand's of dollars for in an old record store if you could even find the record.

Dave the Rave has one of the largest music collections of anybody we know. He has approximately 65,000 45 RPM records that grows weekly, 15,000 albums, and 15,000 CDs that he accesses to bring you an exciting Relics and Rarities show. You may occasionally hear a pop, or some vinyl crackle on Dave the Rave's show as he digs deep into his record library to bring you oldies many of which will be new even to the listener that thinks he has heard em all and knows everything!

The show had been on XM Satellite Radio where it had a large coast to coast fanbase. It currently airs in several markets through syndication and is always seeking new stations that seek a unique show featuring the familiar safe songs along with those lost buried rarities that previously were just collecting dust in old record stores across America. Dave the Rave always suggest having pen and paper at your disposal so that you can start writing down songs that you will love and perhaps never hear again!

We appreciate this very unique radio program and look forward to enjoying the "Relics and Rarities" with Dave for a very long time as we welcome Relics and Rarities to "Abie's DooWop Taxi".

Listener feedback is welcome as well as any programmer that wishes to carry Relics and Rarities on their radio station. Contact Dave the Rave at dave@davetherave.com or visit his website at www.davetherave.com.
