— A BIG 8 RADIO EXCLUSIVE —
_______________
We recently uncovered an extremely rare CKLW year-end playlist for 1965 from a private collection, kept undisclosed for well over 55 years.
On Saturday, September 4, Big 8 Radio streamed the Official CKLW Top 100 of 1965 — for the first time over the Labor Day weekend — exactly as the chart was tabulated by the CKLW music department over five decades ago.
An encore presentation of the CKLW Top 100 of 1965 Countdown was also broadcast HERE at www.big8radio.com — Labor Day Monday, September 6 at NOON ET.
The year-end chart was never distributed nor made available to the public, and we believe the numbered playlist/countdown probably never aired on CKLW that year.
And last, we are pleased to say our special four-page souvenir chart of the CKLW Top 100 of 1965 is now available — FREE DOWNLOAD — on the Big 8 Radio official webpage (click the link above).
For our friends who may have missed the stream, it is now available (anytime) — ON DEMAND — here on Motor City Radio Flashbacks. Join us for this special 5-hour ‘CK 2021 broadcasting experience. The CKLW Top 100 of 1965. Presented here — exclusively — by Big 8 Radio. 🙂
