A Few Questions!

[DXDXDX]

Anybody remember some of the old radio programs and commercials?

First, I remember a drama which appeared on CBS. In my market it came on adjacient to Art Linkletter's "House Party". In that drama was a character named "Hal Craig" Anybody remember the name of the program?

Second and more recent...in the late 60's Chrysler's ad agency was Young and Rubicam. They did a campaign which had the theme of: "Your Next Car". The jingle was a very lush, orchestral type with full choir singing..."Your next car...your next car...your next car is here etc etc etc. They even had a two or three minute version of this. Anybody have a copy or know where I can get it? Is Y and R even around these days?

Young and Rubicam still exists.

I don't recall a drama with a character named Hal Craig. There was an actor named Hal Craig, though (1894-1964). He was primarily a film, but like many actors of his era, he may have done radio.

"Your Next Car Is Here" was the campaign for the 1969 Chrysler. Here's a link to the ASCAP site with information about the jingle:
