this is GREAT STUFF, I live in NH now but I’m from Mich. GO Blue!!!!!!
and early DTW radio was great and I’m going to be 62 this summer and I remember all of this Lee Alan and Club 1270, WXYZ was the best TV and Radio in DTW
What a thrill to listen to the greatest DJ of all time, Lee Allan. Please let me know if any CD’s are available and I will purchase them. I listened to Lee each night on my transistor radio at home or on my car radio cruising Gratiot. I hope the opportunity to meet him someday soon still exists. It would be a privilege . We were blessed to have these radio programs.
I remember listening to Lee Alan late at night on my transistor radio, after I was supposed to be asleep. I especially remember his sign-off song, Frank Sinatra’s version of, I Can’t Get Started With You. It was a rather poignant ending to the show.
I can’t believe that someone else remembers this song to end the nightly radio show. Many nights trying to get to sleep listening to my transistor radio.
I was a “regular” on Teen Dance shows in the 60s. Still love dancing . During my time on TV I saw such artists as Jerry Lee Louis, Tony Bennett, Sal Mineo and even once saw the 5 brothers singing along with an incredibly young Michael Jackson.
If there are any archives of those wonderful dance shows plz let me know
Listened every night travel around Detroit and Metro area putting on Toy partys,(selling toys to stay at home moms for the kids Christmas) Lee Alan! he was the the best next to Frank of course.!!!!!! I am now 90yrs and still remember his sign off makes my heart full to remember!!!
