Wow! I've been looking for this version of "The Star Spangled Banner" forever. It's probably my favorite instrumental rendition. When I was a young kid in the '70s, I have fond memories seeing it played when WLVI-TV 56 in Boston went on the air early in the morning on Saturday or Sunday. How I'd love to find and download a clean, crisp copy of it. Such great shots of nature!
@ws9ca It's Glenn Miller's Moonlight Serenade.
I remember waking up in the middle of the night and seeing this a few times when I was (much) younger.

The shot of the seagulls flying over the water is just gorgeous. :)
I once saw my local ABC station (WPTA, Fort Wayne, IN) sign off with it one Saturday night around 1980.
i remember this so well. I miss this.
Beautiful photography. :)
I don't about the other outlets, but WKBD was using the Sierra Club SSB when they were a Kaiser station
WKBD did use that back when they owned by kaiser Broadcasting. And when they signed off they began with O Canada, then the Sierra Club video.
The old Channel 48, WKBS TV here in Philly, used that same version of the National Anthem when it signed off the air back in 1980.
And I thought the Sierra Club SSB film was only seen on Field Communications stations like WLVI Boston, WFLD Chicago and the late WKBS Philly!!!
Yes that helicopter shot of Roc City skyline is nice. But I want vids of theLouise show and AM Rochester circa 1978!
Did WKBD Detroit and KBHK San Francisco use the Sierra Club "SSB" during Field days?
Ah, so that leaves KBHK as the only question mark about the Sierra Club "SSB" vis-a-vis Kaiser / Field days.
Oh hell! Who's going to go to station management and get permission to reproduce their programing?
What's the name of the music at 0:32 ??
