WCBS News 88 Jingles

These are old and new jingles used

[@mrmjb1960]

I remember the old "You give 22 Minutes,and We'll Give You the World!" Classic!

[@tomahawkseven]

That's 1010 WINS. They still use that to this date,

[@gidzmobug2323]

KFWB out here in CA used the same thing.

You might remember it, but it was never on WCBS.

[@oldradiotvsc9836]

I remember the very first one in this set being the top of the hour ID jingle in the 70s to early 80s or so, after you would hear four or so chimes and then a long beep to indicate the actual top of the hour, "WCBS covers the world at..."

[@jermainemack5721]

Remember that song when it goes( WCBS NY, WCBS NY- Your News, WCBS NY,- Your News WCBS NY, Day or Night Around the Clock is Your News, When you get on down you can set your dial to Oldies 88, WCBS NY, WCBS NY!) and that why I remember that song jingle and I want to request that song for the WCBS Newsradio 88 commercial!

the one I always wanted to hear: "all time...ALL the time. from the National Bureau of Standards...this is W W V... you give us 22 minutes--we'll give YOU 22 minutes!"

[@reggie44]

If memory serves, the original synth jingles were arranged and recorded by Walter Carlos, of "Switched-On Bach" fame. He later went through gender-change surgery, and re-recorded some of them as Wendy Carlos!

Actually, they were produced by the late Eric Siday, who was friends with Carlos. Siday also did the Maxwell House Percolator, CBS TV Color Presentation logo and many other things.

This reminds me of WBBM Newsradio 78 in Chicago!!

I always liked the one at 0:52. I believe it was used for traffic. Another CBS-affiliated (though not owned) station, KQV in Pittsburgh, used it for a time (don't know exactly how long). It was also used in a non-traffic context on a West Virginia-based radio network.

[@LatitudeSky]

Same thing in my area. The local station just bought the WCBS imaging package and used it as their own until they switched over to ABC. For a while, they were an ABC affiliate still using the WCBS imaging. It was awkward. It was replaced with something they did in-house and sound like toddlers banging trash can lids together. Huge huge step down from the WCBS stuff. The station itself went in the toilet. Long gone now.

I believe that was wins...wcbs news radio 88 s slogan for awhile was....for radio news the best in the business

[@tomahawkseven]

Great memories

[@Davey74Boy]

This jingle always freaked me out.

[@Zickcermacity]

The very first one in this set?

[@David-dz3ig]

yes! Like when I was alone in the room and then turn on the radio and this jingle would come on it scared me. But then again I was a kid at the time.

[@steveprestegard5151]

The first one is an excellent ringtone.
