CKLW is a Canadian station, correct?

[ChuckJPC]

It is in Windsor, Ontario ...eh.

Love the Drake jingles, however I do take issue with KSTN being labeled an imitator. In reality, Boss Radio and the Bill Drake genius was given birth @ KSTN Stockton. A real imitator (and a poor one) was KAFY Bakersfield. They had the jings and not much else. There was no true understanding of the Boss Radio format. I worked for both. Bakersfield is where the "whole world would agree, I was no Dave Diamond, and never would I be".

Noted, having known Dave Diamond (KFRC, KBLA) and Barry Shane (Salberg) of KSTN

A middle KHJ jingle (legal ID/Los Angeles) isn't Drake, it's the TM You campaign by Dick Hamilton. The rest are, tho...

Wow I heard of KFRC in the 1990's had a jingle that said "More Oldies KFRC San Francisco" during station ID's and promos.

XM used to have a show on their '60s channel where they did a tribute to a radio station.

Love this stuff. Most of the jingles are good quality. When I used to collect this stuff in the 1960's, I could only get AM airchecks, never very good. Thanks for the collection.

I listened to KHJ when I was last in Los Angeles back in 1983. It's a pretty good station.

I was a DJ at WJIM in Lansing, MI. while at MSU on the weekends. Our jingles were similar but not quite the Drake jingles. I did try to emulate the Big 8 (CKLW, the Motor City) jocks as closely as possible. We had the Sound Power survey (I don't know if anyone else used it or not) and after the news at 5 minutes after the top of the hour the jingle would say, "DJ's name, WJIM plays power sound and it would countdown 10,9,8,7,6,5,5,5" and you would play the no.5 song of the week.

Grew up w/Big 8.

@Glinkaism1 The Drake jingles were recorded by The Johnny Mann Singers. I believe at RCA studios in LA.

CHICENMAN was certainly not created at CKLW. "The Big 8" may have leased CHICKENMAN from creator Dick Orkin at WCFL. His "Famous Radio Ranch" is now in the Sherman Oaks area of the City of Los Angeles. Orkin is still going strong, according to last reports, and he deserves the credit--along with several others--for creating and producing CHICKENMAN at WCFL.
