This was the fateful turning point, or at least a portent of the same, when radio management gave themselves woodies over the epiphany that adopting the MacDonald's business model and applying it to radio would reap big listener numbers and an even more significant loyalty factor.
Every time you walk through the Golden Arches (turn on CFUN, et al) you'll get exactly the same hamburger and fries (songs and liner cards) each and every time; no surprises.
Sad fact of life brothers and sisters is, they knew it couldn't fail and they were, to a large extent, right on the money (pun intended).
Still though, thirty years later, a very slick, pro and polished jingle package that wouldn't sound out of place if you introduced it fresh today.
"You don't know man! I was in radio man! I've seen things you wouldn't believe!"
