COMEDY NIGHT ON
C-FUN
Every
Sunday night from 6 to midnight C-FUN
deviated from its Top 40 format to
give listeners 6 hours of comedy,
everything from Steve Allen's 'Funny
Fone Calls', the comedy of Shelley
Berman, Bill Dana as Jose Jimenez,
Bill Cosby, and so many more. Your
host was Andy Laughland.

THE CORRUPTIBLES
Following
the success of Dickie Goodman's The
Touchables, C-FUN produced
its own variation, The
Corruptibles. It was
produced "in-house" as a novelty
or "break-in" song using clips
from other Top 40 songs with
in-between narrations leading up
to each clip. The Good Guys
refers to Andy Laughland--Producer,
Dave McCormick--writer, and
"Baby Blue Eyes" Brian Lord
as narrator. The record was on a
C-FUN label and was available only
at local Dairy Queen outlets. The
flip side was blank. This record
may possibly be the very first
reference to the C-FUN DJs as the
Good Guys, a term which
would eventually replace the
"Swinging Men at 1410".

FUJIKAMI THE WARRIOR
The
Hi-Fives, were normally touted as
a serious blues band. It's members
included Harry Walker (vocals);
Freddy Carotenuto (saxophone); Tab
Shori (guitar); Bill Papuc (bass);
and Red Lewis/Larry Krashin
(drums). Fujikami's shrieks were
those of guest deejay "Frosty"
Forst. The group's OTHER single,
"Mean Old Woman" was allegedly
more representative of their
sound. . .
