TWO TON BAKER Vol. 6
On the Radio
| The 15-minute Mutual shows were relayed around the country from Baker's home studio at WGN in Chicago. The 5-minute "Tune for Today" spots, from transcription discs, contain a 60-second musical interlude for local announcements or commercials. "Disc Jockey" is a 16-minute segment for an early-morning show for WGN, probably 1957 or '58. The weather forecasts come from another transcription disc with Two Ton giving 31 different versions of the "local" weather forecast. |
