— AUGUST 1957 —

WJBK RADIO 15  

 

62 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK

*****

The WJBK FORMULA 40 hits was compiled, tabulated and produced by Radio 1500’s Bob Martin and Rosemary McGann.

This survey was tabulated overall by each record’s popularity and its appeal, sales, listener requests and record airplays based on the judgement of WJBK Radio.

*****

Previewed for the week of August 26, 1957

Note: By year’s end, 1957, Casey Kasem was no longer at WJBK 1500. Kasem left Detroit for  Buffalo’s WBNY, New York, in November 1957. To fill Kasem’s departure, Dan Baxter became the new replacement. Baxter was hired for the all-night shift on WJBK.
