Yeah, WLS had the National Barn Dance or some such thing up until '60 when they converted to rock; first song played - "Alley Oop" by the Hollywood Argyles. Both Dick Biondi and Clark Weber are still around.
You must be an ol fart like me. LOL
In reminiscing, musn't forget the "Wolfman."
Still one of my all-time favorite tunes: "Clap for the Wolfman."
"Oh, it's Saturday Night at the old barn dance and we're havin' a wonderful tiiiime."
At least I have a couple of oldies options on the audio channels of my digital cable service.
