About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television:
The Museum of Classic Chicago Television's primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s and early 80s, primarily) recorded off of any and all Chicago TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. Even though (mostly) short clips are displayed here, we preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical purposes. For information on how to help in our mission, to donate or lend tapes to be converted to DVD, and to view more of the 4,500+ (and counting) video clips available for viewing in our online archive, please visit us at:

Wow!!! I have forgotten all about this commercial!!! It has been so long ago, I was 10 or 11 years old, when back in 1980, the commercials had more imagination back then but at 52 years young, it is nice to reflect back in the day!!! As a Subscriber of this channel, I am definitely going to fully support the Museum of Broadcast, with my donations!!! And, if possible guys could we purchase these on dvd??? Once the pandemic is over!!! And I would love to see a decades 50s to a late 80s or early 90s commercial dvd based on horror movies at Chicago downtown former movie theaters!!! If possible, really please!!! Big Fan of this channel!!! I love this channel it is truly Awesome and bigs back so many memories!!!
Thanks - just so you know we are not The Museum of Broadcast Communications - that is a different organization. :-)
A few years before that Ronco had an album called Funky Favorites. I had it on 8-track. Ya Ya was on that album. Judging from used LPs on eBay, there were two editions with a few differences in songs. Back then you usually got the original versions, even if edited.
they certainly got their money's worth with that two-frame animation!
Christopher Sobieniak Yeah... all $2.50 of it!
HRB was particularly well-known for such cheapo animation on their ads. "Goofy Gold," anyone?
"Tape or cassette". It's just a given that "tape"= 8-track.
I like any comp with "The Name Game" on it. That truly is a funky favorite :)
The ending voiceover for the "Super Funky Favorites" record ad was Ted Alexander.
+Ryan Zwolinski That's correct.
Can’t go wrong with Rosko Mercer!
I'm thinking the definition of funky had changed by the time the 80's rolled around.
One of the 50s beat generation authors wrote about how arcades still had those crack run movieola things. He mentioned that the dancing girls shown in them were probably dead by now.
wouldn't surprise me.
I am going to call the number.
I wonder if Ben Minotte from the Oddity Archive channel on RUclips has this album.
collegeman1988 I can see the various mentions of "Fuzzy Memories" has paid off handsomely!
e the guy at 0:28 looks like an elite beat agent hmmmmm a new sequel hehe love it a good commercial.

Obviously, HRB's definition of "funky" didn't involve James Brown, the Ohio Players, or George Clinton's Parliament-Funkadelic empire (among others). I do remember, however, seeing a late 1970's record offer ad with lame animation to go with a snippet of Brown's "Hot Pants (She Got To Use What She Got To Get What She Wants)."
They must be selling a lot. That 800 number is ALWAYS busy.
1:12 - So that's what became of The Frito Bandito
Each animation has three frames, if that!
I love these songs, but to call any of them 'funky' is stretching things by miles!
These songs ain’t even funky! Lol
