Description

5 CDs and one DVD (NTSC, region code 0) box set (LP sized) with a 250 page hardcover book. 'Atomic Platters' is the result of a years in the making musical 'Manhattan Project' that collects over 100 vintage Cold War songs and more than two dozen frighteningly naïve civil defense Public Service Announcements (many of these PSA's are voiced by celebrities such as Groucho Marx, Bob Hope, Pat Boone and Johnny Cash, to name just a few!) from the paranoid period that brought US fallout shelters, survival biscuits and uranium fever. The Cold War was a multimedia horror show and 'Atomic Platters' tops off it's mushroom cloud of entertainment with a DVD of nine bizarre civil defense and Anti-Communist short films from the '50s and '60s.
