WBFG FM * The First Christmas * DECEMBER 24, 1977
—THE FIRST CHRISTMAS—
For three consecutive years in the 1970s, ‘The First Christmas‘ aired on 98.7 WBFG-FM in Detroit during the holiday seasons, 1975, 1976 and 1977. At the time ‘The First Christmas’ first aired, WBFG was Detroit’s only premiere station known for it’s all-religious broadcasting format. The call letters WBFG was also the station’s heralded acronym as well. The calls represented their out-going religious radio content heard daily 24/7 on the FM side, “We’re Broadcasting For God.” This special holiday recording, “The First Christmas,” was conceived, created, produced and narrated by Bob Pratt.
