Chuck Cecil 1979

 

Chuck Cecil is back with the Big band Countdown.  This time looking at 1939.  Seems ancient now but when this aired in 1979 it was music of 40 years ago. Yikes.  Chuck also did "The Swingin Years"  Great radio, take a listen.  After the show we check into the AFN newsroom.

Chuck Cecil started playing the music of "The Swingin Years"s on KFI in the late 50s.  Those oldies were popular and he was on AFRTS in 1960.  On the Big Band Countdown, Chuck would pick a time and Count 'em down.  The show ran well into the 1980s.

Chuck Cecil was playing the big band oldies around Los Angeles by the 1950s.  He got it on KFI, syndicated it and ran it for decades.  We were pretty lucky to have it so long on AFRTS.
