… … This is Big D in Hartford … …
The late Charlie Parker, legendary WDRC Program Director, originally envisioned this piece for the 16th Anniversary of WDRC’s switch to Top 40 (August 18, 1976). It was produced by Dave “Doc” Overson, Production Director at WDRC at that time, and includes an amazing number of airchecks going back to 1963, most of which were supplied by Ed Brouder, now of Man From Mars Productions. Included are Ron Landry, Dickie Robinson, Joey Reynolds, Sandy Beach, and many, many others.
“Big D” was noted for keeping ALL of their archives…. at that point in time. Odds are they’ve since landed in private collections and won’t see the light of day in our lifetimes.
