"Hello Again" by Herb Oscar Anderson (WABC DJ)

[dfrkrusso]

I was 14 in 1960 when I started listening to HOA he also sang Only You to the music of Frank Pourcell, can anyone dig this up for me, and again thanks for the memories.

The Golden Age of AM Radio in NYC! Back in the days when radio actually had personality! Growing up in the New York metro area with a transistor radio and the WABC All-Americans: HOA, Ron Lundy, "Big Dan" Ingram, Cousin Brucie and Chuck Leonard ... those were the days ... Hello, hello again!

I remember this as a kid. If memory serves correctly he was on WLIB back in the 60's when he played this.

Thank you for posting this. It's people like you that make You Tube such a success. You think "Nobody would have this, nobody would post it if they did, nobody would be interested." Great radio, btw. Great video/audio job too. THANK YOU!!

[urblhoops]

@yanki161 Wonderful memories.

Let's go back to 1963, I was 22 years old and recently married. Every morning on my way to work, Herb Oscar Anderson, use to sing this delightful song and always made my day. He brightened my morning and made it enjoyable. I use to sing right along with him and thank you Herb, for making each and every day, a little brighter. I still sang this song over the years, loved it!!! Thanks so much!!!!

@mccmul - Thanks for sharing! Sure made me feel good too!

[bearandape]

Wow. What memories this brings back. I haven't heard this since I was about 10.

Thanks for sharing this. God Bless HOA.

[ebtmikado]

Just wonderful! Thanks.

[Hallicrafters88]

WOW!!! I never thought I would ever hear this delightful tune again. I heard it every morning on my way to work back in the 60's. What wonderful memories it brought back. Those were truly the best years of my life. A million thanks to DMORRELL for putting it on "You Tube"

[MarkEdwardSpeer]

Every morning back in the early 60's we woke up to this on the radio as my dad made coffee and we would have breakfast. Love that Herb Oscar Anderson! What a wonderful memory. Thanks!

[urblhoops]

@MarkEdwardSpeer I remember very well my mom making breakfast or getting me set for school when this was on. Great times.

miss ya HOA

[1400deadwood]

Haven't heard this beaut since the late 60s. How nice to hear it again.

A lady DJ from KLBB-AM in the Twin Cities yesterday mentioned HOA's name and it brought back memories. That's why I had to look up this video and greatly appreciate that you have posted it.

They just don't make them like they used to!!

[larchmontmark]

Hey, THANKS FOR THAT!!!

Never expected to find this anywhere!!!!

[weezy531]

HOA "zipped me up" every morning. He recorded an album on Verve records. I'd like to know if it can be downloaded anywhere.

[mdallen67]

Occasionally I see that LP on E-bay. Like to have it myself. He did that album with Frank DeVol,(My Three Sons Theme, Brady Bunch, Family Affair etc etc.)Most people only remember DeVol as a TV theme guy, but he was a great bandleader,arranger, songwriter etc. He died not too long ago if I recall.

[mdallen67]

A very nice restoration job on the phono--The great HOA never sounded so good. Brings back memories of my youth and listening to WABC!

[spacepatrolman]

Wasnt that on the wabc label like cousin brucies go go record HOA moved to florida where he does concerts.

[mdallen67]

You Are Correct Sir! I have a mint copy of that 45(The HOA!). Wish I had that Cousin Brucie 45. The Brucie 45 was a promo put out by Coke.

[spacepatrolman]

THE 4 Seasons also did the joey reynolds show theme[ sung to the tune of big girls dont cry ] .

[mdallen67]

Spot On Again! Occasionally he plays that on his 710 WOR overnight show! Slightly off subject, Check out the Joey Reynolds interview with GOD himself, Dan Ingram on You-Tube! I think it's still here somewhere.
