  • That CBC Newsworld looking like the coil is from early 1991.

  • Also, based on the advertising embedded in your video, did YouTube figure out what the song was? Or still undetermined?

  • @RetroWinnipeg Still undetermined at this point. Waiting to find out myself as I am curious as to what the song is also.

  • @toastichedu hey, how far back was this? would you happen to know what year this originally aired? I mean I clearly remember this in the 70s and 80s when I was just s kid growing up in winnipeg.

  • @richardthewriter Was this song used on sign-ons in the 70s as well? I believe this version was used from sometime in the late 1980s through 1993.

  • @RetroWinnipeg I'm 45 and I have vivid memories of seeing this in the mid 70s when I was a little boy. As for the song? that's a good question. Wish I could help you with that. But I really don't remember

  • @richardthewriter I seem to remember taping this in the early 1990s. But then again, this CBWT sign on had been playing for many years.

  • @toastichedu the voice over is done by Lee Major (not the 6 million dollar man) and he was with the CBC in Winnipeg in the 1970s. that I remember.

  • @RetroWinnipeg Turns out the song is called California Roll by Lee Ritenour.

  • @toastichedu CBC Radio (Manitoba) used another song by Lee Ritenour, "Bahia Funk" for their lead-in music on Radio Noon though the 90's. I guess they were partial to his smooth jazz/up-beat tracks.

  • oooo...a CBC ID without voice over. Nice.

  • Great find! This appears to be the winter edition, as I recall seeing flowers and the Royal Canadian Mint as their stock footage during the summer...
