Thanks tapthatt2012 ! This broadcast is the only aircheck of Joe and Pat we have at our main archive in the News Building, but we suspect there may be more tapes from this period off site in storage centers. We at WPIX love your KZbin channel too BTW. We appreciate all the good work you do in preserving WPIX heritage, as well as that of other New York stations. Keep it up and we'll keep digging around here too.

Guy in the Blarney Stone commercial was my second cousin. He managed the rock band called the outlaws. He died very young. His Dad started Blarney Stone.

The three Yankees in the starting lineup for the American League in the 1975 All-Star Game? Thurman Munson, Graig Nettles and Bobby Bonds.

I'd like to see the Hollywood Squares ad with Paul Lynde from 1981.
