And, speaking of GREAT Chicago DJ's ...Fred Winston on the Rewound
Radio DJ Hall of Fame
One of the most recognized names
in Chicago Top 40 Radio is Fred Winston. Fred is best known for his
on-air stints at “The Big 89” WLS, but he has also worked at a number of well
known radio stations that have made their marks in radio history. Fred
hosted a variety of formats, with one of the biggest surprises being that he
was the afternoon man for a short time at WMAQ, during its Country Music days.
Fred will be celebrating his

Timmy sent us this vintage chart from 1969 ... A few surprises here ... as well as a few songs that didn't make much of a dent in OUR national charts ... which makes me wonder Where Is The Chart From??? (kk)
What's half of our usual Sweet Sixteen? How about this Great Eight ... Eight surprising songs from this list that you just don't hear anymore! (kk)
I guess we can add Dave Mason to our Sick Bay list ... He has cancelled the next three months of appearances and checked himself into the hospital to take care of a "serious medical issue." (No further explanation was given) Wishing a speedy recovery to Dave, who also had emergency heart valve surgery last November. (kk) And we can add Frank Beard, drummer for ZZ Top, to this list as well. Yesterday, the band released a statement that said: ZZ
Top’s drummer, Mr. Frank Beard,
has temporarily stepped away from the current tour to attend a health
issue requiring his focus in the near term. He is looking forward to a speedy recovery. Kent,
Posting that video of OLD
MacDONALD, started me to thinking how many times that song has been recorded
through the years. Let's see, there was Frank Sinatra, the Chargers, the
Orlandos, the Isley Brothers. But I guess my favorite is the one in which the
title is E-I-E-I-O, recorded by Jimmy Jones in 1960. Old McDonald had a farm,
E-I-E-I-O. And on this farm lived daughter Sue, E-I-E-I-O
Larry
Hmm … I don’t know that one … but checking my trusty Joel
Whitburn Comparison Chart Book, I see that it “bubbled under” in all three of
the major trades … hitting #102 in Billboard, #110 in Music Vendor and #117 in
Cash Box.
The actual title was shown as “Ee-I Ee-I Oh! (Sue
MacDonald)”
Never made it to MY ears … so of COURSE I had to go out and
find it!!!
Here it is … so others can enjoy … or cringe … right along
with me! (kk)
