WABC's last music show, with

of the talk program (the Art Athens show) that followed the conclusion of the music show at 12
noon. The first guests were Dan Ingram and Ron Lundy, who talked about
their careers at WABC and their upcoming work on the satellite SuperRadio
program that ultimately ended up being scrapped just before it went on the
air. Dan talks about his "not Chuck Dunaway" stunt back in 1961 before
he was given his own show and was able to use his own name. (DX) |
