We are pleased having announced Big 8 Radio recently acquired a preserved archive of the broadcast from Dec 30 1968, including all songs, announcements, jingles and commercials heard initially on CKLW nearly 54 years ago.
The broadcast features Big 8 jocks Big Jim Edwards and the late Ed Mitchell counting down the CKLW Big 100 records and songs of 1968.
Nearly five and a half hours long, the stream debuted Saturday, May 28 at 12 noon (and at 6 p.m., ET.) and encored Monday, May 30 at 12 Noon (and at 6 p.m., ET.) on www.big8radio.com during the Memorial Day holiday weekend.
For the benefit of our friends who might’ve missed the broadcast and in conjunction with Big 8 Radio the original CKLW Big 100 of 1968 special will be archived and can be heard anytime — ON DEMAND — here at Motor City Radio Flashbacks.
