Views: 3786
Here's a record offer for "18 Golden Hits of 1976" with songs performed by "The Sound Effects" (or "The original Sound Effects" as the announcer helpfully mentions). It's another album of knock-offs (although at least from this ad, not quite as bad as the infamous "Muskrat Love" collection)
"After you forget all about the Bicentennial, this is what you'll remember 1976 for..."

Nowadays they probably would have had to look like Justin Bieber in order to get a record deal.

The Keane Brothers (Commercial, 1977)

Here's a commercial for the eponymous debut album by the "Hanson" of their day - The Keane Brothers. (Tom and John) On 20th Century Records and Tapes. Produced by the legendary David Foster.
The second song in this isn't half bad - has a real mellow 70s vibe to it. Tom wrote their own songs from what I've googled. Oh - wow, I guess that song was written for and about Amy Carter. It's called Amy (Show The World You're There).

WWJ Channel 4 - "Partial Station Sign-Off" (1978)
Views: 8032
At the end of a tape, after a recording of a movie ended, there was a bit of a previous recording that was taped over. We see most of the National Anthem, then some strange black and white bars, and then static. In the static you can hear bleeding through what perhaps was on another channel at the same time (during the static the tape kept speeding up which is why the audio races at times)
RetroNewfoundland (Vintage Canada) was enterprising enough to slow down the audio heard a...
WLS Channel 7 - Hot Fudge Show (Excerpt, 1980?)
Views: 5746
Here is a small excerpt from the Hot Fudge Show as aired on WLS Channel 7. This is all I found - wish there was more, but at least you get to hear a little of the theme song.
This show aired on WFLD Channel 32, WLS Channel 7, and at one point WSNS Channel 44.
Hot Fudge bumper voiceover by Janice Kos
Not sure when this was recorded exactly; the only clue is the Honeycomb cereal commercial at the end, which is why I placed this at around 1980.
