That was back in the day, before the CBS-FM staff was banned from ever using the word "Oldies" on the air or in their slogans, even though their format is "oldies". Nowadays, a station that mainly plays music from the mid-60's to the 80's is technically considered to have an oldies format. However, the word "oldies" tends to turn away the more middle-aged listeners who mainly associate the word "oldies" with doo-wop music and the 50's & 60's music that their parents grew up with.
I am sorry but it was the PAMS on WABC that took me...Dan Ingram would not play them all, but one time he got short on material so he played the whole series...funny!
yes realised after i had posted. Was trying to write the post while serving clients in my store. The same guy kept coming back and then I noticed. Good video though.
Still using cart machines ? They have been "outlawed" down here in broadcasting New Zealand. Great machines. Yes I totally agree about the fun needs to go back into radio. I'm currently producing a new radio show with a view to bringing a bunch of 60s 70s elements back into the mix.Airing later January all going to plan. Have a Facebook project called GOLDEN DAYS OF New ZEALAND BROADCASTING.
I remember "the best music" jingle on 840 WHAS. They also used a "the best sports" one as well. This had to be around the time this video was shot. Wasn't too many AM music stations by then.
Yeah! Those great jingles, first on 77WABC and then CBSFM, wow. There are some now on Sirius with the Cuz but there was nothing like those old jingles from those great stations! Love ya' Cuz!

@thebigpoopful WHAS was actually on the AM stereo bandwagon so that would explain why they aired music even in 1992.

@WetPooooopie - The answer is right there in the opening title. It says "1992". Brucie has been on New York radio for over 50 years.
