  • Here's a long, 2 minute record offer for "Original Gold" from Sessions (located at 477 East Butterfield Road in Lombard, IL), which featured snippets of songs (among the 30 original hits in this three-record set) whose pitch had been goosed up by about 2-3 percent when played for this ad. (just incase you thought something sounded a little off about them)
    Songs include: "Get Closer" by Seals & Crofts, "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" by Joan Baez, "Angel In Your Arms" by Hot, "Theme From 'Mahogany' " by Diana Ross, "You're So Vain" by Carly Simon, "I'd Really Love To See You Tonight" by England Dan & John Ford Coley, "Emotion" by Samantha Sang, "Knowing Me, Knowing You" by ABBA, "You're No Good" by Linda Ronstadt, "Don't Give Up On Us" by David Soul, "Then Came You" by Dionne Warwick and the Spinners (from back when she spelt her surname "Warwicke"), "Dance With Me" by Orleans, and "Me And You And A Dog Named Boo" by Lobo.
    Also available on two 8-track tapes or two cassettes.
    Bonus: followed by WLS Channel 7 station ID slide and PSA for Little City of Palatine, IL (voiceover by ??), then first second of "star" opening of their late movie ("The Crystal Ball" [1943]) before recording ends.
    This aired on local Chicago TV late Tuesday, January 2nd 1979 at about 11:58pm.

      @Mark Galassini I lived close to the zoo in the early 70's. It was and is still a beautiful area. Were you there when the locust came out sometime around 71/72 it was crazy. There were millions of them.

    Some of those Sessions collections were in our record collection. Didn't they seem to have the loudest announcer in those TV commercials? Every so often I'll see those albums at thrift stores. Don't forget eBay.

    Thank You Fuzzy...AM Gold is what you hear here .Love these classics.. My generation did not have Ipods,Smart phones computers or internet for music enjoyment. . We had AM/FM Radios ,cassettes/8 tracks,reel to reels and vinyl..LOL....
    I love these collection commercials .The same with the K-Tel and the Time Life record sets..
    Late night TV back then was the great time to see these in my area..Probably aired during the late night movie along with Crazy Eddie and Hair Club for Man commercials during the 1980's. .
    I think I have this collection set somewhere here in vinyl .

    Who was the announcer? I've said band names like he does , in my head , for 50 years . His voice is the definition of band names..

  • @wmbrown6

    At the time of this, when this ad would have run in NYC on WABC Channel 7, it likely would have been before their own late night movie, which at that point was titled by date as "The Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday / Thursday / Friday Night Late" ("Tuesday" would have been applicable in this case), and after this ad but before the start of the movie, one of the WABC announcers (likely Tedd Lawrence) would have intoned something like "AM New York, tomorrow morning [or 'today'] at 9," followed by a still slide of the movie show logo and Walter Raim's "Big Show Theme" playing.
