Bert Parks's show was called "Yours For A Song."
"What's This Song?" was Wink Martindale's first
game show, airing on NBC in the 1964-65 season.

I noticed one ABC station carrying "Camouflage."
This must have been a delay of at least a week,
since the last show of the original version aired on
November 16. And the host was DON, not Dom,
Morrow.

"Premiere" is "Alcoa Premiere," with Fred Astaire
as host. It was not uncommon in the days when
sponsors were included in the program title for
newspapers to delete the sponsor's name on grounds
that it was free advertising.

And is that the same Bob Neal who worked at
Channel 11 in Atlanta as news anchor from 1969-72,
then as sports guy on "Pro News" on two different
occasions between 1972 and 1976, when Steve Somers
replaced him and he went to work for Ted Turner?

Thanks bpatrick..
I was doing this for a special Thanksgiving post on my blog and It WAS Your's For a Song..At least I can correct it on the blog, since I can't here..

Thanks for the correction on Morrow's name-just a mistype.
I was trying to find a show called "Premiere" in Brooks and Marsh..Thanks for the clarification


I dont think the Cleveland and Atlanta Bob Neal are the same.  The Cleveland Bob Neal had worked as a sports TV/Radio announcer for Browns and Indians games and as a Cleveland Sportscaster from as far back as the late 1940's until 1972 when he was let go as the Cleveland Indians radio announcer, being replaced by Joe Tait..Neal also did some Network sports.

The Atlanta Bob Neal would seem to be somewhat younger..

some proof:
