WGCH-FM - Greenwich, Connecticut
| For a few brief years, following World War
Two, Greenwich, Connecticut
had its own FM station, dedicated to the service of the community. It
played a variety of music but concentrated mostly on light classical
and classical themes. It featured discussion programs, interviews with
Greenwich personalities, including pianist Alec Templeton, opera star
Robert Merrill, radio/TV personality Bud Collyer, and even a weekly
quiz program from the stage of the Pickwick movie theater. All that remains today are a few air checks dating from 1949 to 1952. They have been carefully and lovingly remastered in digital format to preserve them for future generations. Appearing on this presentation: 1. Walter S. Lemmon, President of WGCH-FM 2. Dick Bertelmann, announcer 3. Earle Price, announcer 4. Frank Tedero, vocalist 5. Bill Gray, jazz record collector 6. Dick Bertel (Bertelmann), narrator Produced and Digitally Remastered by Robert I.
