An aircheck of "The Bob Butler Show" from a stormy afternoon in 1975. I don't have an exact date, but a news archive search indicates a severe storm moved through Raleigh on March 19. Garry Dornburg, Mike Blackman and Dan Giddens are heard.

  • This is great stuff...date is certainly Monday March 24, 1975. The news broadcast makes reference to tornadoes earlier in the day in Atlanta (these have become known as the Governors Tornadoes in Georgia), and a fire at Sox and Martin Drag Team in Burlington on Saturday- this was on the night of Saturday March 22. Lastly, an ad refers to a play at Meredith College "tomorrow and Wednesday", so this broadcast was on a Monday.

    Thanks from a Raleigh Native and lifelong resident!
