The Sounds Of San Francisco From The KGO Music Tower
Circa 1962
Narrated by Leslie G. Stein, also known as Les Crane,
this collection of music and spoken interludes was presented on an LP
album with these liner notes: "In January of 1962, KGO created a fantasy
— a KGO 'Music Tower' ... 81 stories high in the sky, looking over the
bays and bridges of San Francisco. This windswept spire, built on sounds
and suggestions, has captured the imagination of listeners everywhere.
KGO personalities broadcast from the very top of this tower ... and with
the beautiful Bay Area below them, fill the moments between music with
vivid descriptions of the many breath-taking views."
