Here's a brief 10-second commercial for WDAI 94.7 FM, "Chicago's Best Rock."

SIDE NOTES:

1. This was in the vein of other ABC-owned FM radio stations of the period, i.e. WPLJ 95.5 FM in New York, which went by the slogan "New York's Best Rock" - and even down to their logos.

2. The WDAI calls were originally meant for the Detroit FM outlet of ABC's, but due to a clerical error wound up in Chicago for the once and many times future WLS-FM. (Detroit's ABC FM station ended up with the calls WRIF.)

Voiceover by Pat St. John.

This aired on local Chicago TV on Wednesday, January 7th 1976.

About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television:

The Museum of Classic Chicago Television's primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s and early 80s, primarily) recorded off of any and all Chicago TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. Even though (mostly) short clips are displayed here, we preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical purposes. For information on how to help in our mission, to donate or lend tapes to be converted to DVD, and to view more of the 4,700+ (and counting) video clips available for viewing in our online archive, please visit us at:
