Homecoming Show - Oct. 19, 2012 Bobby G with Mike Riccio

                Had the opportunity to revisit some of the songs that were played on WCWP in the years that I was Program Director and Mike Riccio was Music Director ( 68 - 70 ). At the time, Mike would have literally one thousand calls during his Saturday night show. We were supplied with a constant stream of new LPs and singles each week. We needed 3 or 4 people to answer the phones.                                                               I usually checked out the 40 to 100  plus LPs that arrived each week for progressive rock and Mike would go through the singles with his "Magic Ears".  We had the chance last Sunday to play some of the WCWP survey songs. Eventually, WABC and WMCA  which were still rockin' (WINS 1010 AM switched to all news before I started college) played some of these artists listed below.
               I have saved several dozen hand-written letters from listeners back then . It was truly a different time and world. There were only 7 TV Channels in NYC and limited popular music available on the AM dial.                                                                                                                                                          Do you remember any of these songs?
Montego Bay - Bobby Bloom
Reflections of My Life - Marmalade
Will You Be Staying After Sunday - Peppermint Rainbow
Take Me in Your Arms - Jefferson
Baby It's You - Smith
Black Pearl - Sonny Charles
Toast and Marmalade - Tin Tin
Eres Tu - Mocedades
One Tin Soldier - Coven
Reach Out in the Darkness - Friend and Lover
              We played all these before anyone else did "back in the day"!
