Retro Rock was produced by the Clayton Webster Corporation out of St. Louis.  The show format was rebroadcasts of live concerts and artist profile/interview specials.  Occasionally they blended the formats and mixed unreleased live songs with studio cuts and interviews.  That's the format for this two part special by the Police.

The first hour is almost all unreleased live music from different concerts.  I managed to identify two of the songs as from the Bottom Line show of April 1979.  The version I have of the Bottom Line show was mastered by Mr. David Hussey and has a patched version of "Roxanne."  This Retro Rock show has a complete version of the song, without the break or the patch.

The second hour shifts to more studio material, but has one song that should be of note to Police completists.  In 1980, the Police released a single of "De Doo Doo Doo, De Da Da Da" with a Spanish version on one side and Japanese on the flip. Each side was the full version of the song with three verses and choruses in the respective language.  This rare single was left off "Message in a Box: The Complete Recordings" (which is, of course, not "complete").

There's a unique English/Spanish/Japanese edit of "De Doo Doo Doo, De Da Da Da" on this Retro Rock show.  Presumably they edited the three different versions together from the released versions. The first verse and chorus are in English, followed by Spanish, then Japanese.   I've been unable to track down any evidence that this edit was ever commercially distributed.  Perhaps one of Our Beloved Readers knows if this 3-language version was ever released?

Gilbert "Gil" Scott-Heron (April 1, 1949 – May 27, 2011) was an American soul and jazz poet, musician, and author, known primarily for his work as a spoken word performer in the 1970s and '80s. His collaborative efforts with musician Brian Jackson featured a musical fusion of jazz, blues, and soul, as well as lyrical content concerning social and political issues of the time, delivered in both rapping and melismatic vocal styles by Scott-Heron. His own term for himself was "bluesologist", which he defined as "a scientist who is concerned with the origin of the blues." His music, most notably on Pieces of a Man and Winter in America in the early 1970s, influenced and helped engender later African-American music genres such as hip hop and neo soul.

Tracks from Kihn's 1981 Country Club show were broadcast at twice by Westwood One. The first show was 81-10, broadcast about seven months earlier.  Five songs are duplicated on both shows. 81-10 has seven unique songs, and 82-12 has four unique songs.   That earlier show is in the Voodoo Wagon archives; if you do a search for Greg Kihn you'll find it.

Billboard Magazine of Sept. 19, 1981 mentions that the August 28, 1981 Kihn show at the
Country Club was filmed for MTV.  There is a YouTube video of "When The Music Starts" that matches this WW1 performance, so that gives us a likely date for the show.

The beer commercials on this one seem like they got lost and wandered into the wrong radio program .  It's all country artists in a rock n' roll show.  Janie Fricke was the CMA's "Female Vocalist of the Year" in 1982, Axton has a rock connection as he wrote a few rock hits ("The Pusher" by  Steppenwolf, "Joy To The World" by Three Dog Night)...but as a singing act, he's country.  Same with Charlie McCoy... he played with Bob Dylan (and Ween!) but he's pure country.  What are they doing with Greg Kihn and Point Blank?

Plus, Busch? Most of the time these syndicated shows were sponsored by Anheiser-Busch's flagship brand Budweiser, or by their rival, Miller.

I had forgotten these little stubby beer bottles.

Let's see...oh, yeah, here's a picture of the Hara Arena in Trotwood, Ohio, which just closed last month in August 2016.  Hara Arena was built by brothers Harold and Ralph Wampler in 1964 with the name "Hara" was created out of the first two letters of their first names.  After Harold died in 1996 there was an unresolved estate and property tax issues, and the problems finally sunk the privately owned venue.  Anyone ever attend a concert there?

I couldn't find a good vintage picture of the County Club, but if you want a t-shirt, they're for sale at various Internet Stores, like Etsy.

As usual....FLAC files of wavs.  I've included 300 dpi scans of the cue sheet, the disc label, and the affidavit mailer.
