Part one of "The Brady Girls Get Married" was "broadcast" at the end of the previous season of "The Tape and Record Show". The last two parts were what I digitized tonight. The last portion of the three parter was missing, so had to use an "alternate source" for the audio.
Also, had to use "alternate sources" for the "Sanford and Son" and "Bosom Buddies" episodes, since the original audio tapes I recorded at the time were amiss. However, from other off-air recordings I made at the time, I used the opening theme for "Bosom Buddies" used for the original broadcasts. The theme "Shake Me Loose" by Stephanie Mills used in the syndicated and home video releases was what the producers intended, but ABC execs wanted something different at the time, so for authenticity's sake I "restored" the episode to the way is was "heard" on the original "Tape and Record Show" "broadcast". Have to give Stephanie Mills credit where credit is due though!
The "Brady Brides" episode included in episode 269 is a "hybrid". I had the original off-air audio for the first 18 or so minutes in my collection, but had use an alternate source for the remaining seven or so minutes, so there is a drastic sound quality change at the end.
