… Live it up, ’til midnight! …
We don’t know if this “Oldies” presentation was a special event or business as usual for WRIT in Milwaukee, or if this was the regular shift for host Ron Walker, but there’s a lot more classic content here than the music. They pulled out the old jingles, a bells-and-whistles Action Central News presentation plus a dusty stash of genuine ’50’s and ’60’s Solid Gold. John Wood handles news and sports in Part One of this Wonderful recording made between 7:26PM and 8:07PM on Saturday, April 17, 1971.
They play “Number One This Week” jingles into decade-old records, but the commercial content is all current. Note that mid-April was generally when Arbitron began the dreaded “April/May” survey period, so maybe this was a special event after all.
