Jim Pewter 1970

 


In 1970 Guenther was in Germany listening to the Americans on AFN.  He saved a lot of it.
Here's a 1970 visit.

Be sure to hear Jim at 6pm Central on www.mybestsounds.com



Herman Griffith 1967

     




Martha Reeves and the Vandellas "Jimmy Mack"

"Time for something for the brave and the bold, it's the Records Caravan".  The music was changing.  Herman made it better.

Spotlight Bands - Fort Devens MA 1945

 



Mostly, I try to stay away from CONUS network radio shows.  Spotlite Bands is a little different.  During WWII Coca-Cola sponsored the top bands in America playing at military bases in the US and to be recorded for AFRS.  Here's Charlie Barnet, playing at Lovell General Hospital, Ft Devens MA


Joe Ferguson

  


Joe Ferguson was one of the jocks from all over the country sharing his skills in an experiment AFRTS tried in the early 80s.  He shared these shows and I'll always be grateful.

Hear Joe every day at 11:00am Central www.mybestsounds.com 



Roger Carroll 1970



Here's Roger at the Hollywood Palladium

Roger spent decades with us and did some wonderful radio.  His day job was at KMPC but he grabbed a lot of announcing work at the civilian networks.  A few years ago he shared his collection with us and I'm glad I can help share it.

Roger did some very stylish radio.  But you've never heard it  begin quite like this...
