CKWX 1950's?

Postby radiofan » Wed Jun 11, 2008 8:45 am

A couple of newly discovered oldies but goodies from CKWX. Does anyone know what year these were from? They say 1130, so it has to be 1957 or later. Were these from 1962 after Top 40 was dropped?? I'm sure Ron R will enjoy the baseball jingle! Thanks to Jim at Vancouver Top 40 Radio .com for sharing these.

CKWX Oldies
Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who couldn't hear the music.

Judging by the style of the music my best guess is that these aired during 1957, after the switchover from 980 to 1130 or early 1958 prior to the switch to 24-hour top 40. Could be wrong of course.

first jingle.


Just a thought

You know, I have a sneaking suspicion that those were locally done...maybe using music beds from a production package but with singers brought in....
