61 Big WAYS Charlotte--one of the greats!

Here's a collection of videos saluting "61 Big WAYS"...one of the great radio stations ever.

The "Pass the Loot Club"...Murphy in the Morning lampoons Jim and Tammy Faye Baaker's "PTL Club", also in Charlotte. This is one of Big WAYS most famous running bits http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QJYjHVgLUI

"Dialing for Dingbats" TOO MUCH SEX CAN MAKE YOU DEAF! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UtW5HW-6g8


WAYS format change in 1982 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRKb8qB5sF0

I'm still looking for an aircheck of Jay Thomas (legendary DJ and actor...Karla's husband on "Cheers", among others) doing mornings on WAYS in the mid-70s. I'll post it when I find it.

Now for something completely different

Here's a video made by a (legally) blind man...as my wife and I visited the New River Zoo in Ashe County, NC last fall http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YG9rySluV9U

The quality's not great, but it was a fun day, and the animals are loved and spoiled. Great fun!

I was interviewed on the radio!

I was interviewed on the radio tonight (Sunday, August 2) on the WBTM Radio Network in Wilmington, Deleware http://www.wbtm.info

They have graciously consented to let me stream the interview from my website, in case you missed it. Here's the link http://www.theproductionroom.net/wbtm.ram

In other news, I've neglected you, and I am so sorry! Show 61 is IN THE CAN! Most affiliates will air it in a couple of weeks!

If there's something you'd like to hear, or if you have a comment, e-mail me at savingthe70s@aol.com

Thanks!
