Growing up in Delaware in the late ’50s, by favorite program was “The Hound” on WKBW. Yes, I was a ‘hound-dogger’. Reception was fair to good. I just found an old tape with The Hound playing “Big Guitar” by Sam (The Man) Taylor. He started playing on 78 RPM (I guess some of the vinyl was still 78 RPM then), then played it at normal (45 RPM) speed. Its a real hoot! If anyone wants to hear it, I might post it on YouTube.
