"Pete Kelly's Blues"



This series ran from 7/4 to 9/19/51 on NBC at 8pm on Wednesdays and starred Jack Webb as Pete Kelly, player of a hot cornet in a Kansas City speakeasy in the 1920's. Pete Kelly's world was filled with sidemen, flappers, and gangsters with Prohibition agents lurking around the fringes. Kelly would usually run afoul of some hood or mob boss and try to escape from a bad situation in a half-hour in one piece. Pete Kelly's Blues came to radio nearly 2 years after Webb found fame as Sgt. Joe Friday on Dragnet. The show was the basis of the 1955 film of the same name which also starred Webb.  The show also made an appearance on television in the 1950's.

NOTE: Due to a server crash recently at SaveFile.com, these files are currently unavailable.
I have been very busy with my new Disc Jockey company and with production of new episodes of
The Glowing Dial of late and have not had time to upload these files once again.
SaveFile.com does not have batch uploading so all the files have to be uploaded one-at-a-time.
This is very time consuming so please be patient and I will try to get the files back up as I have spare
time to do so.  I apologize for any inconvenience.

All episodes of Pete Kelly's Blues can be downloaded here.

NOTE: The new file storage system we are using deletes files (episodes) automatically if they sit on the server for 30 days without a download.  This is beyond our control and we have no realistic way of keeping up with checking on this.  So, we ask you, our loyal listeners to inform us if you find a file (episode) missing.  Upon receiving such a notice, we will upload the episode to the server in as timely a fashion as we are able.

ALSO: Please do your best to not be a "bandwidth hog".  We ask that you limit your downloads to a "reasonable" amount per day.  Please do not use "download managers" either.  Although we have unlimited storage space and unlimited bandwidth at our current storage location, we do not wish to "abuse" this privilege and "crash" or "severely limit" their server.  Remember, there are many others who want to download these files as badly as you do so please give them a fair chance too.
