Geez, I wish they could have separated them a bit and identified them by year. I was listening from basically 1963 to 1974, and I don't remember most of these. Of course, I was also listening to Super 'CFL. Whenever there was a song that I didn't like or a string of commercials, I would move the radio dial to the other station. Probably by plan, though, most of the commercial timing seemed to align. Still, I'd try: WLS-WCFL-WLS-WCFL and eventually the music would return. Toward the end, there was also WIND ("Music from the '50s, '60s, and Now").
Kathie says…when I am on my death bed and not responding to anyone…listening to this is what I want to hear. I find it light, cheerful, and comforting, and so full of happy memories!

At 7:18 it said in this tone. (Rockin from Metro Manila WLS FM ) WLS FM was part of GMA 7 Philippines. Now it's changed to Barangay LS 97.1 Forever
Most of those are the Anita Kerr Singers. They did many back up vocals in Nashville during the 60s.
That was pretty cool
