THE CKLW TOP 100 1969 COUNTDOWN! JULY 4: ENCORES 12 NOON

CKLW TOP 100 HITS of 1969!

ENCORE BROADCAST | 12 NOON | TODAY

_______________

The year 1969 was one of the years, if not the only year, in which CKLW did not present their annual Top 100 or Top 80 year-end countdown. Instead, the Big 8 opted for the Top 100 Hits of the 1960s — closing out the decade — as CKLW prepared to usher in the 1970s.

For the first time ever — host Charlie O’Brien and Big 8 radio will present the hits of 1969 as they were featured on CKLW throughout that memorable year. Beginning with song 100, all the way to the number one song on top. The Top 100 Hits of 1969 playlist was tabulated from the weekly CKLW Top 30 Records charts and by CKLW historian Dave Kelly.

The CKLW Top 100 Hits of 1969 countdown resumes today, July 4 at 12 NOON., EST. Another exclusive presentation by Charlie O’Brien and big8radio.com . . . click the streaming link for the broadcast HERE!

THE HIGH SCHOOLERS! WXYZ SALUTES THE CLASS OF ’63 and ’64

WXYZ SALUTES DETROIT HIGH SCHOOLS | A-B-C | ’63-’64

THE WXYZ ‘PAMS’ HIGH SCHOOLERS!

_______________

In 1963, WXYZ commissioned PAMS of Dallas to create a plethora of outstanding jingles saluting all the high schools in the metropolitan Detroit area. They were aired mostly during the Detroit high school graduation season and were highlighted on WXYZ during the Detroit high school football seasons, 1963 and 1964.

At the time, WXYZ chose to tally every high school in alphabetical order on the Detroit map with their own jingle, from A through Z. The presented WXYZ jingle sampler was created for high schools lettered A, B, and C . . . from All Saints to Cody High.

Throughout the decades having passed since, many of the named schools recalled in this PAMS sampler, those institutions no longer exist today. But you just may find your high school’s ‘jingle’ played here — as they were selectively saluted on WXYZ radio, some 58 years ago.
