WCFL (Chicago) Hit Survey, November 9, 1970

 

The Partridge Family hits numbers one with "I Think I Love You", and "Montego Bay" is on the move. Newcomers include Clapton's "After Midnight" and Dawn's "Knock Three Times". The biggest chart breaker though is The Who's "See Me Feel Me" from the musical opera Tommy.

okay, there's a story here. but it's late. i'll post it in the marnin'....cuz i'm, pun intended, fading fast.

 

night peeps!

Dennis DeYoung Performs the 1983 Styx hit, Mr. Roboto. Mr. Roboto is a song written by Dennis DeYoung of and recorded on the Styx album Kilroy Was Here. In the U.S., it reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 100. It also was the final straw in an internal conflict that lead to Tommy Shaw leaving the band for many years. It also taught millions of music lovers the Japanese use of thank you "Domo Arigato"

Het REM-eiland was een platform in de Noordzee, op 9 kilometer buiten de kust van Noordwijk. In 1964 werden vanaf dit eiland vanaf 12 augustus tot 14 december commerciële televisie-uitzendingen onder de naam TV Noordzee verzorgd.

 

In 1963 werd de Reclame Exploitatie Maatschappij (REM) gesticht. De voornaamste aandeelhouder was de Rotterdamse scheepsbouwer Cornelis Verolme. Andere aandeelhouders waren Reinder Zwolsman, Pieter Schelte Heerema, Sidney van den Bergh en de bank Texeira de Mattos. De REM wilde commerciële radio- en televisie-uitzendingen verzorgen. Omdat de Nederlandse wetgeving dit niet toestond zouden de uitzendingen geschieden vanaf een locatie juist buiten de territoriale wateren (6 mijl uit de kust van Noordwijk). Uitzenden vanaf een kunstmatig eiland werd veiliger geacht dan uitzendingen vanaf een schip zoals een radiozendpiraat/zeezender als Veronica al deed. Bij Lloyd's of London werd een verzekering afgesloten tegen inbeslagname door de autoriteiten.

Time to drag those ghetto blasters down from the loft. Apparently the humble cassette tape is making a comeback! Even Kylie Minogue released her latest album on the format....

 

I'm off now to tape the Top 40 :)

Yours truly deep into the radio groove inside the third floor of an anonymous nondescript brick building in Bridgeport, Connecticut. September 2005.

 

Doing this oldies show at WPKN-FM in Bridgeport, CT on Saturday evenings was probably the most fun thing I've ever done!

 

Ever since falling in love with the fast pace, tight formats and on-air personalities of classic Top-40 radio in my childhood years, I finally got my own shot it! (and it lasted for almost 19 years!).

 

As a weekend show, I had complete control over the contents. The show was a mix of well known tunes along with copious amounts of B-sides, as well as many album tracks which should have become hits in their time, but never did. Numerous vintage jingles and commercials from my collection copied to broadcast tape carts added to the overall recreation of the way radio used to sound.

 

At 10,000 watts, we were getting calls and requests from most of Connecticut, Long Island and even parts of Rhode Island and upstate New York.

 

A friend and fellow radio DJ and aircheck collector, Bob Gilmore, took this shot during my intro talk-up of the Jimi Hendrix tune "Are You Experienced?".

He also had an oldies show, but the approach was completely different. While my show was fast paced, highly energetic and reminiscent of vintage Top 40 and its "forward thrust" formatics, his show was laid back and educational. After each set of tunes, he would discuss the the back-stories of the artists and songs just played. I learned a lot listening to the tales and insights he spoke about to his audience. He was an absolute font of information and fascinating trivia about 1950s, '60s and '70s music.

At age 9, I became totally fascinated by radio and everything to do with it. One of best stations in Connecticut was a HOT, high energy Top-40 out of New Haven. Only 1,000 watts but it sounded better than most major market stations I've ever heard and had a much broader playlist as well. (Where else could you hear "When I Die" by Motherlode, Donny Elwood's version of "Where Did Our Love Go" and "Funky Worm" by the Ohio Players on a regular basis?).

 

They made 77 WABC down in New York City sound like rank amateurs with its stodgy, slow format and reverb audio that was a throwback to the early 1960s. Not to mention a playlist of about 15 songs interrupted by endless commercial breaks.

 

WAVZ was consulted by Paul Drew, known in the industry as a total perfectionist who would call and berate the on-air jock for the slightest mistake or format deviation. The DJs were amazingly good and the locally produced commercials, station promos and contests were incredibly clever and had slick production values. "CashCade", "The Money Pool", "High Stakes", "Don't Say Hello", "The Summer Beach Patrol", "Goldfinger", "The Phrase That Pays", "Diving for Dollars", "The Tantalizer" and so many more contests in a never ending array.

 

I recorded hundreds of hours of their programming between 1972 and 1976 on cassettes. Fifteen years ago, I transferred all this material to CDs as a labor of love and enhanced them using Adobe Audition. This was the station that heavily influenced my decision to go into radio (at least as a weekend DJ). It's still SO cool to drive around in 2016 and listen to WAVZ from the early 1970s blasting out of my car radio. Who needs oldies stations? This is the REAL deal!

Antwerpen #5

 

Brabo, the mythical Roman soldier who killed the giant Antigoon and gave his name to the duchy of Brabant. His statue is standing in Antwerp.

 

Brabo, de mytische Romeinse soldaat die de reus Antigoon doodde en zijn naam gaf aan Brabant. Zijn standbeeld staat in Antwerpen.

I was the last DJ at the station to still use these. They gave my oldies show a real old-school sound between tunes. Besides, it was fun to fire them off during song intros and get the "magic overlap" up to the start of the vocal that modern automation systems aren't capable of doing.

This was an absolute blast. The show simulated the format, pacing and energy of vintage Top-40 radio, specifically the Bill Drake formatted stations like KHJ in Los Angeles and CKLW in Windsor, Ontario. I used 1960s and 70s digitally remastered jingles, promos and contests from my collection and copied them to tape carts for airplay. The show also featured real vintage commercials for products which no longer existed.

 

As a weekend show, I had complete control over the contents. The show was a mix of well known tunes along with copious amounts of B-sides, as well as many album tracks which should have become hits in their time, but never did.

 

At 10,000 watts, we were getting calls and requests from most of Connecticut, Long Island and even parts of upstate New York.

Often long-distance listeners on the internet would also call in to make requests and comment on the show.

 

I had a key to the transmitter room and would crank the Aphex Compellor audio compressor settings WAY up to give our broadcast output that old-time sound of loudness and punchiness.

 

Every show was recorded on DAT or VHS-HiFi tapes and I've since remastered them to CDs for my aircheck collection at home. In fact, I'm listening to one right now as I write this!

Since I did the Saturday evening oldies show, it was my responsibility to represent the station at this event by broadcasting my program in this tent rather than back at the station's studios in Bridgeport. This was the one time when I had to learn how to use totally unfamiliar equipment REALLY fast! In the evening, we also aired a live performance of the Tom Tom Club, a local Connecticut band which contained members from the Talking Heads.

Reminds me of the 1973 hit tune by the Three Degrees, "Armed and Extremely Dangerous!".

 

I've placed some Flickr notes on the photo for more details.

 

This is the only remaining copy of the original print. The photo and text were published in the 1979 yearbook in the section describing all the student activities which were available. I honed my radio skills at WRNU which later resulted in a 19 year weekend gig on a Connecticut 10,000 watt station.

 

That was a plastic pellet toy gun which was almost always present in the studio. Being young and dopey students, we used to occasionally "shoot" our fellow DJs with thin, green plastic disks when they were on the air. It was all in good fun.

Doors open at 5:30pm and event starts at 6pm

A bit of attitude for today. ;)

 

This is yet another photo in my Household Objects series.

Yes, I also have a big roll of caution tape laying around, as well as a leather blindfold.

;)

 

Not the easiest thing, by the way...tying yourself into an office chair, pulling a blindfold over your eyes, binding your wrists together, then pressing the wired remote and throwing it across the floor so that it isn't in the picture. ;)

Also for TOTW's theme of textures, GTWL's theme of knee socks, FGR's invasion of my own group, Caution Tape, and TRP's invasion of Your Favourite. These knee socks (actually thigh-high stockings) are definitely one of my favourites.

What better song to go with the title for this by none other than of Sir Elton John & Bernie Taupin: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXqFJJ5AX0c

 

And here are the words from: www.eltonography.com/songs/kiss_the_bride.html

 

Kiss The Bride

 

Available on the album Too Low For Zero

Music: The FABULOUS & WONDERFUL - Sir Elton John

Lyrics: Bernie Taupin

 

Well she looked a peach in the dress she made

When she was still her mama's little girl

And when she walked down the aisle everybody smiled

At her innocence and curls

And when the preacher said is there anyone here

Got a reason why they shouldn't wed

I should have stuck up my hand

I should have got up to stand

And this is what I should have said

I wanna kiss the bride yeah!

I wanna kiss the bride yeah!

Long before she met him

She was mine, mine, mine

Don't say I do

Say bye, bye, bye

And let me kiss the bride yeah!

Underneath her veil I could see a tear

Trickling down her pretty face

And when she slipped on the ring I knew everything

Would never be the same again

But if the groom would have known he'd have had a fit

About his wife and the things we did

And what I planned to say

Yeah on her wedding day

Well I thought it but I kept it hid

. . . THRILLER!!! Ah-ha-ha-ha!

 

Gramma Luvlee’s Good Friend Fred

 

Here lies Fred, my dear departed friend.

I know he wished to be here til the end.

Fred was a fun man a giving man too.

He wanted to share his body parts with you!

 

1) Fred was a golly man with a great big gut.

Let's pass around his intestines just for luck.

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

Twisted and shriveled in a bunch

just like they were after his lunch.

 

( A long thin balloon filled with jello & oiled)

 

2) His fingers were long, almost pure white.

Lets pass around a few, no need for fright.

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

Pretty greasy & slimy, he lived in a cave.

Never really had time to bathe.

 

(Slightly cooked & cooled & oiled baby carrots)

 

3) His toes were grimy from wearing no shoes.

Short & stubby and a little bit blue.

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

His toenails are long and a little bit brittle.

Don’t mind the wet, it’s just his spittle!

 

(Cold Vienna sausages)

 

4) One eye went left, the other right.

Poor Fred had really bad eyesight!

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

Handle them gently for they may roll.

Fred would hate if they fell from the bowl!

 

(2 Large peeled grapes)

 

5) Now Fred he wasn’t a very smart man.

We found his brain stuffed in a can.

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

Give them a squeeze, there’s not a lot.

I guess old Fred, his mind is shot!

 

(I rounded the corners on three sponges and put a rubber band in the center to hold them together. It sort of resembled a brain. Then I soaked them in cold water. You could also use a cooked cauliflower.)

 

6) Fred’s bones were brittle, dry & old.

Give them a crack, if you’re so bold.

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

The rats have chewed them, you can too!

But wipe them first, there may be goo!

 

(Pretzel rods)

 

7) Now one thing Fred couldn’t be called

was billiard ball, hairless, slick or bald!

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

His crowning glory, styled with spit.

They ladies liked to run their fingers through it!

 

(Fake Fur)

 

8) It stopped beating with a start.

Poor Fred’s little slimy heart.

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

His heart it stopped no more to thump.

Please don’t scream if it starts to jump!

 

(A large tomato, blanched & peeled)

 

9) Fred was proud of his pearly whites.

A good set of choppers kept him feed right.

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

His teeth were strong unlike his eyesight.

Be careful when you touch them, they might bite!

 

(Corn Nuts)

 

10) Just like Van Gough, he only had one ear.

But he heard just fine, perfectly clear.

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

A little bit shriveled because of age.

But an ear nonetheless, it says on this page.

 

(Dried apricot)

 

11) The last thing we found was Fred’s strong hands.

They were down deep, covered in sand.

Fresh from the grave, wet & cold.

Just a little slimy, just a little old!

Cold and stiff as they were when he died.

Hold one or you’ll think that I lied.

Catch a ride on the Red Rocket

Eight bulls eyes on the dot.

 

After getting all of those layers

 

Then finally they got me tasered

 

REFRAIN

 

Shoot me up, Shoot me up

 

Down I go

 

Shoot me up, Shoot me up

 

A cop on a roll

Shoot me up, Shoot me up

 

Why is it sooooooooo

 

LEAD GUITAR SOLO

 

VERSE 3

 

Neon lights torments Toronto

 

This vision you get onto

 

Surrounded by cops in rage

No one has got my back

 

Last ride on the TTC

 

Why did it have to be

 

VERSE 5

 

I wanna go to Syria

 

Now I stay in this paranoia

 

Gonna ride No. 4058

 

Destiny has got my fate

 

2nd PRE-CHORUS

Eight bulls eyes on the dot.

 

After getting all of those layers

 

Then finally they got me tasered

 

2nd REFRAIN

When I was at Ryerson at this time a fellow student was there(Ohio) and behind the troops when this following event happened at OHIO.

 

After the troops killed 4 students in Ohio, Neil Young went into the woods and wrote his classic signature song 'Ohio'.
