Got a link from boingboing with Terry Zwigoff on how radio killed old time music. But it also started out innocently enough. My own search for old radio commercials led me to directions in radio that are weird enough for me. I just found an aircheck from Pittsburgh's KQV circa August 1968.
Just wanted to say how much I enjoy reading Jason Togyer's Tube City Almanac. News of the greater McKeesport area (including Pittsburgh), commentary on the comics, politics in general, historical photos (some of which I've posted to Pittsburgh Signs), and some amusing thoughts on day-to-day life, including this bit on fixing his car.
This is a totally voluntary endorsement, but if you drive an old heap or are restoring one, like me, and it needs a new carburetor, you may want to try National Carburetors of Jacksonville, Fla. Their service was good, the price was reasonable, the quality of the carb they sent me appears to be very high, and the car started on the first try.Well, actually, the second try. On the first try, we blew the vent caps off of the battery with an accompanying shower of sparks and flames.
Um, don't try that at home. Do it at a friend's house, like I did!
