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

@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.

@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 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 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.
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.

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

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