TOP STREAM 32Kbps (10KHz) Chuck Leonard, WABC New York, October 9, 1968 (37:35) This Exhibit 'SCOPED (11:07) . . . Turn out the lights and call the law . . . [Description by Uncle Ricky] The affable and popular Chuck Leonard (d. August 12, 2004) is featured on Wednesday evening, October 9, 1968. There's a short newscast with Don Lowe, who's talking about a guy named Hubert Humphrey and an upcoming election. Also, there are ten reportable music performances, one of which was "new" to your curator. This was most likely recorded from WABC-FM. The reverb has been added, and is probably more subtle than what the AM was using at the time. Three songs were restored.
