Growing up in Philly was a blessing because there was so much on-air talent in the 1960's. We've had Dick Clark, The Geator with the Heater, Georgie Woods, Ed Hurst, The Rockin' Bird Joe Niagra, Dave Hermann, Harvey Holiday etc...BUT the hippest of them all was Hy Lit! His TV show featured live acts, cool dancers and very cool music promo videos. Hy Lit predated MTV. Truly a class act! RIP Hyski.
