I have posted 5 videos on Youtube about WORC 1310 from the early years. The charts, music, commericals and photo's from the first Rock N Roll radio station in New England. Go to Youtube and enter WORC1310.

Hi Bob;
Love your you tube site. I used to be a dj on WORC back in the1970, 71, and 72. Also on WAAB. Thanjks for the you tube stuff. Love it!

Steve or Bob , do you remember the Comic Strip , Brandy Banjo , Red Barn or Leicester Airport from back in the day ?
-
Oldtimer, I sure do remember all of those places. How about Wemite Farm, in Holden?

I remember WORC and WAAB way back when. In high school we called in our favorite songs and the DJ's would announce our names and even messages. Example: "You Gotta be a Football Hero," goes out to Okie O'Connor and the St. John's team. Those were the days my friends (and now you know I'm a lot older than the rest of you). Do any of you remember or have info about WTAG programs in the late 1940's? "Happiness Unlimited" was a Saturday morning children's show. It had a talent segment and also skits. I sang on this program when I was about 9-10. Then later on a couple talent shows, one broadcast from the studio, then later from Denholm's Dept. store. One of the announcer's went on to act in television, but can't recall his name.

Jenna - The famous actor Tony Randall (The Odd Couple) was an announcer on WTAG, back in the '40s, I believe.

Funny I loved W.O.R.C I saw some things about W.O.R.C. on youtube, There's one thing that I heard was that Pot was coming into Worcester in 1968 And 1969. At least that was what they said on YouTube. But when I was 17 in 1963 I was smoking it then. So how did they come up with 68 and 69 ?

Man the Comic Strip now that was a long time ago. I saw Eric Burdon And The Animals there

Wow, I remember Jeff Starr at WORC.
"Star Power!" was his banner cry.

It was the Red Barn in northboro. B.J. Dean was the Dj.
