The "IN" Sound for August 16th, 1966!!

It's Day Two of our week (well, five days, anyway) of visits to the strange world of forty-six years ago, with noted NYC deejay Harry Harrison as our guide. Today he takes his cue from prominent Bartlesville, Oklahoma Explorer Scout John Clark (I can't find any evidence of him on the internet), who suggests he talk to Tommy Roe about his newest hit single, "Sweet Pea," which he then proceeds to do. Afterwards, he makes his pitch to join the U.S. Army, which really wasn't a wise move  that year. Be sure to tune in tomorrow, when Harry's guests will be... the Young Rascals!

The "IN" Sound for August 15th, 1966!!

Let's take a trip back to this very day forty-six years ago with Harry Harrison, when, on the recommendation of guest DJ Dave Brehm (RIP) of WGEZ in Beloit, WI, he plays us "Lost in My World," the latest single from the Outsiders, then has a chat with lead singer Sonny Geraci and lead guitarist Bill Bruno. Fair warning: no matter how convincing you find Harry's sales pitch, you definitely do not want to join the Army in late 1966! Trust me on this one.
