This was composed by Dick Hamilton, and recorded in large part in his home (garage) studio. The demo was assembled by Ken Justiss at TM in Dallas. The singers are Ron Hicklin, John & Tom Bahler, and Jackie Ward.
Remember the voiceover announcer for Disney where he did trailers and promos from many of the Disney VHS tapes over the years? It was Mark Elliott. He was on KHJ back in the early to mid 70's before he went over to Disney to do voiceover work for all of the movie trailers and promos. Mark Elliott was the man!
"The Winning Score" was one of several jingle packages featured - along with a hilarious radio drama - on the 1977 TM demo LP "Tomorrow Radio". I still have this album, in almost mint condition. (It was the catylist for my becoming a radio DJ some 35 years ago!)
Probably because of KMET making FM "cool," AM stations like KHJ had difficulty getting people to "admit" they listened to it. Unfortunate, because with few exceptions, no station ever came close to the quality of KHJ and its contemporaries.
Syndicated in 1976 for the UK station Beacon Radio which was programmed around the American Billboard Hot 100 chart - "We do it for you on Beacon 303".
If any of you YouTubers can tell me how I can get a hold of the radio jingles to 93.1 KNX-FM in Los Angeles it will be appreciated. I'm also looking for their old broadcasts as well. The station went off the air in 1983 and converted into some new ridiculous format.
@reneecalling It went through several format changes. It was KKHR and it was a CHR format. It could not challange KIISFM coupled with Power106's sign on. so it went back its Mellow Rock format as KNX-FM in 1986. It become KODJ in 1989 and flipped to Oldies. It pick up the KCBS-FM calls in 1991. Become Classic Hits/Rock Arrow in 1993 and flipped to JACKFM in 2005
@donmccullen So I see. All those changes and for what? I loved KNX-FM. It was a great and unique station that gave a lot of up-and-coming artists their start. They had great airchecks with jingles that no other station could match; and a very informative segment called the Odyssey Files. I remember turning on the radio one day and I couldn't find it. Let's just say I wasn't happy about it. They shouldn't have tried to fix it if it wasn't broke to begin with. : (
@reneecalling I know you posted 8 months ago, but I viewed this upload for the first time yesterday. I have several consecutive days worth of unedited KNX-FM broadcasts from summer 1977. They were taped on a Dokorder 4-track reel-to-reel recorder using Maxell studio tape, and are all broadcast quality. If you are still interested, contact me via You Tube and we can exchange e-mail addresses and information.

When did Winning Score come out. Cause I have to say YOU was a better package than The Winning Score.
TWC was also used for the syndcated show "Live from the 60's."

It is very interesting to see this. Especially as I was born in 82 when popular music was going from AM to FM

@hkfreak - Yeah. And what's "it"? It's money, or course..
Guess the new slogan ought to be:
McDonald's. I'm Lovin' Money.
(money extracted mostly from poor people)
