I used to tape the Sunday Night Oldies Show with Mike St. John, as well as Jerry Blavat's Saturday Night Dance Party from the old Memories West in Center City. I still have some of those tapes today, and I've taken them on my trips to Los Angeles, San Francisco, Montreal, Florida, and Atlanta.

I was working at my first job as a dietary aide in Media back then.

Did my ears hear correctly? Was that Dick Orkin, of Chicken Man Fame, doing the wine commercial?

Wow!! Talk about a time warp, this is amazing. Arco Go Patrol, Walt McDonald reports, news about Anwar Sadat, etc, etc. What's coming next for us 'PEN fans?

I remember listening to WPEN around this time, they were evolving into a format similar to WIP. Eventually they returned to saying WPEN on the air.
