THE ‘FUTURESONIC’ PRODUCTION SERIES: WXYZ RADIO 1270

WXYZ ‘FUTURESONIC’ Jingles on MOTOR CITY RADIO FLASHBACKS

 WXYZ-AM | “Action Radio” | 1963-1964

FUTURESONIC PRODUCTIONS, DALLAS, TX

_______________

According to renown radio historian and master jinglecologist Ken R., Futuresonic “rivaled PAMS for creative output in the late 1950s and early 1960s.” In this featured presentation you will hear a Futuresonic sampler for WXYZ 1270, Detroit, circa 1963-1964.

Futuresonic also created jingle packages for Detroit’s WWJ in the early 1960s.

_______________

The featured Futuresonic WXYZ jingle package was audio remastered by Motor City Radio Flashbacks

_______________

Note: On our site’s Facebook page, according to WXYZ’s Lee Alan, this featured Futuresonic jingle sampler was not used on WXYZ in 1963 nor in 1964.

Thanks Lee Alan, for the noted correction.
