The Magic of PAMS Contents

"The Magic of PAMS" consists of 10 compact discs (packaged in 5 double-CD jewel cases) and an illustrated 36 page color booklet. Each CD contains well over an hour of material, making the total listening time almost 12 hours. The entire set comes in an individually numbered cardboard sleeve, making it a true collector's boxed set.

Audio quality was our primary concern while assembling this compilation. We spent over two years locating original master tapes and using digital technology to remove unwanted noises. But our objective was not to rewrite history. With the exception of a few volume level adjustments, and the shortening of some lengthy gaps, there were no editorial changes or production "improvements" made to any of the demos. You will hear the material just as it was first released, only much cleaner. All content is in its original mono format.

Here is exactly what is contained on each of the CDs in the collection. There are 95 tracks in all. The accompanying booklet contains information and background stories about each and every demo, as well as a brief history of the radio jingle business, technical details and listening notes.

The year given for each title reflects each package's release date. If a demo contains jingles for one or two stations, those stations are listed. If there are more than two, the primary station is given followed by three dots, or the term "various" is used. The time given is the running length of each item.
