best damn radio station ever
This is how I remember Dan Ingram! Finally met him in studio in July 1977. Surprised, but not, how smooth an operation it was, just him at the mic and a director running the board." Great guy! I brought a friend along, so his off-air greeting was, "Forget you, Amowitz, who's the girl?" :D
WE ARE SOOOO GRATEFUL FOR THESE VITAL MEMORIES OF AMAZING JOY!! NYC AM RADIO 60s 70s... #1🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Such a detailed weather report. Barometric pressure, winds, etc.
One Legend filling in for another.
One of the radio legends.
This was the stuff radio was made of!
I remember 1967, but I was quite small! I remember hearing Paul Harvey on the radio, and seeing LBJ on TV. I remember riding around with My Grandfather in his 1962 Rambler!
I grew up with this stuff, though a little later. I was age one when this aired. I was about 16 when WABC switched away from music for good. Good times.
Yes, I was also 16. I was upset
When I was listening to WABC in the mid 60's it was an AM station.
I remember the Dennison Men's Clothiers ads well into the night and early morning hours. "Money talks, nobody walks", the best four words ever found in any promotion. And the DJs on WABC knew how to deliver that, it just rolled right off their tongues. "Winds from the south... no that's the air conditioner you're holding your finger in front of..." Yes it is.
Charlie Greer was a master of the Dennison commercials. Read them in Iambic pentameter
@@garyrasberryjr.552 Iambic pentameter, that's rich. But whenn I listen to this again, I remember (sort of) Paradise Lost especially when Satan addresses his minions. There is some similarity but I would have to have the written script and parse the thing. Who knows, maybe they were written that way.
Dan great as usual,even in the morning
Big Dan, Happy Thanksgiving in Heaven brother, we miss you
Say hello to the gang and ride them star’s thru the MilkyWay
See ya Kemosabe
Still cant believe he is gone.
..it’s hip, it’s heaven ..it’s 77 WAB land and C.
In 1972, they had Dan Ingram, Cousin Brucie and Harry Harrison ( "Morning Mayor" ? ) that I can recall. Others ?
Chuck Leonard?
Harry Harrison, Ron Lundy, Dan Ingram, Cousin Brucie, Chuck Leonard, Charlie Greer.
I never ever once met Big Dan. But he was a personal friend of mine.
Morning host for whom Dan is substituting is Herb Oscar Anderson. Harrison is not yet a part of the WABC team and would in fact be on the air at the time this was recorded just down the dial at the home of the Good Guys, 570 WMCA
Oh yes you are completely right.
According to Wikipedia, and other sources, Dan worked at WABC July 3, 1961-May 10, 1982.
Actually, at that particular time, Herb Oscar Anderson was part of the WABC All-Americans.
Joe O'Brien was the morning man on WMCA. Harry Harrison was on 10-1 on WMCA at this time.
"That's 87.50" for engineers voice on the air. WOW! 87.50. That's family outing to McDonalds with large McFlurry for dessert.
I remember when this was wjz, a long time ago.
Back when a 4 minute record was considered 'long'.
I still consider it long.
I remember Bates Boats in .those days. My grandfather bought a large cabin cruiser from that retail establishment.
This might be the first time I've ever heard a Dennison's spot read by anyone other than Cousin Brucie or one of the other jocks
Uh... WHERE'S THE REVERB???
Maybe the FM didn't have the famous WABC reverb when they were simulcasting, and this is a tape of the FM.
It's really strange to hear Big Dan on ABC this way... It kinda jumps out of the speakers at ya. The shouting in the background suggests this was NOT recorded off the board. This might be a unique "no reverb" aircheck because Dan usually worked afternoon drive when the FM was NOT carrying it.
cat was hysterical... great
It would have been better if the songs weren`t cut out.Big Dan was fantastic!
I will get the uncut version uploaded to archive.org
Fantastic!
Charlie Greer was great, too. Another Dan Ingram
Click!(punching the button on the radio in my dad's car to turn the station!)

WABC-FM source? sounds great!
Probably so. Or it might have been recorded straight off the board.
At the the time thus was recorded, these shows were broadcast on AM. WABC did have an FM broadcast which by recent fiat from the FCC had to have different content then their AM broadcast. This was the case for all radio stations in the US. You don't see a mass move from AM to FM until FM radios start showing in cars. This interim period was the golden age of FM. It was fairly commercial free. There were stations in New York, and elsewhere I suspect, that would play whole album sides without interruption. If you had the money you could get a seven inch reel to reel tape and some fairly expensive receivers and get good quality recordings. The advances in semiconductors both in manufacturing and functionality between the late 1960s and the late 1970s was significant and facilitated the switch to FM as the main venue and AM mostly being used for talk radio. Although these guys you see here stayed employed, the top 40 format they employed was destroyed because the new formats appearing on FM did not go away although they weren't quite as liberal with the air time. I believe that many stations did make recordings of their broadcasts
"... the humility, 84 percent..." 20:37
Oh my goodness, I never even noticed that. lol
any chance of getting those with the music?
I am going to upload "most" of the airchecks on archive.org eventually, so stay tuned.,
@@thevictrolaking that's a brilliant idea. Stuff like this mustn't be forgotten! Best thing I ever heard was that remastered CD of a 1969 KSAN show... perfection!
I agree it should not be forgotten.
Not trying to nitpick but this is a morning air check and the scores from the previous day's games the Yankees did not lose to Kansas City two to one , they played four games in 4 days and none of the scores were two to one which means this aircheck is not from that day or year
All the scores provided point to 8/4 which would make this broadcast the next day or 8/5/67
The movie Bonnie and Clyde was from 1968. I was in 8th grade. So you’re probably right that the date/year posted could be incorrect.
but the Kansas City Athletics moved to Oakland in 1968. There was no Major League team in Kansas City in 1968.
This aircheck sure got torn up. You cut the music,this would have been a good aircheck.
