Gunsmoke: Bloody Hands

De: Original Radio Broadcast

Narrado por: William Conrad, Parley Baer, Howard McNear, Georgia Ellis, Old Time Radio

Presented here are 30 Western stories of unparalleled realism and uncompromising emotional complexity. Marshal Matt Dillon (William Conrad) doesn't revel in violence, but he uses it because he lives in a violent place at a violent time, where only the violent can survive.

Standing by the Marshal are his shambling deputy Chester (Parley Baer), his acerbic confidant Doc (Howard McNear), and the pretty saloon girl Kitty (Georgia Ellis). Townspeople, ranchers, gunfighters, and lost souls are drawn to Dodge City for encounters with Dillon. Some walk away. Some don't.

Gunsmoke - & Cigarette Smoke!

I love these episodes. William Conrad was a great Matt Dillon, much more of a hardass than James Arness. I love the TV series and was really surprised to find these radio shows. The original Chester sounds just like Dennis Weaver from the TV version. "Mishter Dillin." My only complaint is the inclusion of the cigarette commercials that funded the show. It's sad to realize people fell for the selling of that poison. If you download this Gunsmoke, cigarette smoke comes along with it. Highlight (for me): Marshal Dillon orders Chester to spit a wad of chewing tobacco at a rattlesnake when neither man can risk firing a gun. "Juice it." There's not a dull moment here--except for the commercials.

Great stories while you travel!

My daughter and I loved this set, we listen to them as we run errands around town, we finished it, and then listened again!
