Richard Diamond: Surplus Homicides (MP3 Download)

Product Description

This is a DOWNLOAD product.

Dick Powell established himself as a silver screen icon in the 1930’s as the apple-cheeked crooning sensation in countless Depression-era musicals. But, the 1940’s found him playing every tough guy from Philip Marlowe, to Richard Rogue…to Richard Diamond, Private Detective.

Powell’s portrayal of Diamond, and his flawless chemistry with Virginia Gregg as the detective’s socialite girlfriend Helen Asher, brought the series’ admiringly clever scripts to life. Flippancy and fast quips flew between Diamond and ulcerated cop Lieutenant Levinson (Ed Begley), who really did like Rick in spite of the aggravation he caused. But, that was child’s play compared to the suffer-no-fools contempt the P.I. had for the boundless idiocy of Sergeant Otis Ludlum (Wilms Herbert).

Sit back and enjoy 16 digitally remastered adventures with a detective who not only solves the perfect crime…but is also in perfect voice.
