When I was doing this on the other side of the mic, one of my biggest complaints was the lack of promo items. Sean sent a bundle of what they're doing now. Stickers, temporary tattoos, bags, pencils, key chains and such. Promo items have always re-enforced the branding. More and more like stateside radio, in a good way..

Jim Ameche 1964
Sometimes I miss "beautiful music", orchestral arrangements mostly of pop songs of the 1930s-1960s. It was the rhythm of the grocery stores. AFRTS had a history of playing it, going back to WWII. Carrying the mantle in the 1960s was Jim Ameche. Jim had been a big radio star in the "Golden Days of Radio" but his big success was being the first to nationally syndicate a DJ show.
In 1964, we heard "The Best Sounds Around"
