About this listen
Autumn has a good hold on Broadway...and the street gives in, stops fighting it...the fashion has changed...because night is colder...night is longer....
For Detective Danny Clover, Broadway is more than just a street - it’s a living, breathing creature with a mood and a style all its own. Radio’s most lyrical crime drama comes to life in this collection, Broadway’s My Beat, featuring 16 unique tales of murder along the main stem.
The series’ purple prose is counterbalanced by the gritty realism that was a specialty of the 16th Precinct and its endearingly eccentric characters. Larry Thor stars as Clover, with Charles Calvert as Sgt. Tartaglia and Jack Kruschen as Detective Muggavan. The voices of the violent and their victims are provided by Betty Lou Gerson, Sheldon Leonard, Paula Winslowe, Howard McNear, Paul Frees, Larry Dobkin, Cathy Lewis, and more.
Episodes Include: The Mary Trevor Murder Case 10-25-52; The Amelia Lane Murder Case 11-01-52; The Grace Cullen Murder Case 11-22-52; The Johnny Clark Murder Case 11-29-52; The Artie Blanchard Case 02-14-53; Laugh-a-Minute Tyler 03-14-53; The Ted Lawrence Murder Case 07-18-53; The Stacy Parker Murder Case 07-25-53; The Hilda Bruce Murder Case 08-08-53; The Mrs. Webb Murder Case 08-15-53; The Paul Tracy Murder Case 09-26-53; The Harriet Temple Murder Case 10-07-53; The Donald Jordan Murder Case 11-13-53; The Lou Martin Murder Case 11-20-53; The Katy Lane Murder Case 07-25-54; The Floyd Decker Murder Case 08-01-54.

Larry Thor stars as the world-weary Times Square homicide investigator who is still sentimental about the street in these 16 atmospheric radio adventures! Clover stalks justice through the glitz and through the gutter, undaunted by wrong turns, obstructions, or traps. At least Sgt. Tartaglia (Charles Calvert) and Sgt. Muggavan (Jack Kruschen) are on his side.

Story
NYPD detective Danny Clover, poignantly portrayed by Larry Thor, patrols The Great White Way. With each block he bears witness to regret and redemption, to desperation and debauchery, to wealth and want. Each leaves its mark on this poetic policeman. At Clover’s side, and covering his back, are Sgt. Tartaglia (Charles Calvert) and Sgt. Muggavan (Jack Kruschen). The unhappy endings of hard luck stories drive Danny to search for justice - pounding the pavement to track down an eye witness, find that one scrap of evidence, or just to walk until it all makes sense.

Diamond Detective Agency. A pleasant smile, a cheerful rhyme, and we'll keep you from doing time. A quip, a carefree whistle, and a case closed - that's Dick Powell's Richard Diamond. Clients can be scarce, but he's not a bit worried. You see, he's "in partnership with a shill called human nature." And she's really quite reliable. Sooner or later someone will need his services for matters of protection or pay back, blackmail or bombs, modern art or murder.

Dick Powell is Richard Diamond, private detective, the quick-witted, lighthearted detective.

Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar takes a turn towards the hardboiled as film-noir favorite Edmond O'Brien takes over the role of America's Fabulous Freelance Insurance Investigator. His gritty, driven performance is well worth rediscovering. O'Brien's harder, more cynical Dollar brought him harder and more cynical clients…and adversaries. In this collection of original radio episodes from 1950-52, Johnny finds more than his quota of murder, mystery, and malfeasance.

Story
If you got the idea that Pat Novak was a rather single-minded fellow, you'd be wrong. He appreciated liquor every bit as much as he appreciated women. He could be found most nights popping shots and wisecracks with his saloon-owner pal, Jocko Madigan (Tudor Owen). But, most of all, he appreciated the crisp greenness of a new 50-dollar bill. Operating out of the grim San Francisco waterfront, Novak didn't have much use for anyone and didn't much care who knew it.
