I love the various religious PSAs from the early and mid-1970s. Nothing like it today. Not even from the Mormons.

I've always enjoyed all the commercial ads and service PSA's that are on some recordings from the CBSRMT. It's such a shame that the majority of the recordings have them edited out, especially after 1974. The newscasts before the broadcasts are always very interesting to hear, both national and local. Truly going back in time.

In the 80's,, I spent time at a radio station, finding places to insert our own commercials, IDs; etc. Neither my bosses nor I wanted any program content lost, but the bosses didn't care if the original network and station IDs got cut. The recordings I was working with were from broadcasts on stations in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York. Even though it meant our live announcer had to do a quick on-air clarification, I would always leave in the station IDs. How could I leave out stuff like, "This is the Voice of Hollywood--KNX, Los Angeles."?
