1976: When CHUM & CFTR Battled For Top 40 Supremacy In Toronto

This YouTube piece features mostly CHUM & CFTR snippets from 1976. It's only 6 minutes long, but it shows how two great radio stations at the time went after each other with dynamic DJs, magic music and a whole lot of Top 40 attitude. A real blast from the past and it kind of reminds me that we can't hear anything quite like it on any station today. But it sure was fun while it lasted. (There's a brief intro, but the good stuff starts around the 1:20 mark.)
