[DESCRIPTION BY UNCLE RICKY – CONTRIBUTED and RESTORED BY ROB FRANKEL]
It’s all about GO GO and lots of PAMS Series 29 on this Spring afternoon in New York. Big Bob Bobaloo Lewis even uses a Series 29 Pre-Record for the Castro spot. With such a density of classic jingles, this is certainly the WABC sound remembered most fondly. In fact, this aircheck is SO full of jingles that you’ll hear one running over a spot!
There’s a ton of nostalgia in the commercial sets, too. Listen for a promo featuring Howard Cosell for his Speaking Of Everything show, and musically, a completely horrid “Hot Prospect”.
This is another restoration courtesy of Master Restorian Rob Frankel. Thank you, Rob! Rob restored the missing music to this partially ‘scoped aircheck in 2006. He says an unrestored version was featured on the WABC REWOUND show in 2005.
