This is where my reel-to-reel tape ends, and caps off a typical 5-hour program of The Larry Glick Show.

From June 30th, 1977

Larry Glick - WBZ Boston - June 30, 1977 (Part 6)

The start of hour number 4, Larry reads the weather, dates the show (Thursday June 30th, 1977), and does sports.

Then he takes calls from Todd, Ron (who has been listening to Larry for 12 years); Mary from Revere, Ma whose birthday is tomorrow July 1st (she was 73 in 1977). Larry sings Happy Birthday to Mary (with Charlie DiGiovanni on the harmonica).

“Shames” of Galek decent calls from Syracuse. They discuss the 1977 movie “A Bridge Too Far”. Shames says a few choice words from the movie, causing WBZ to delete a few seconds of the conservation.

Doctor Johnson a Podiatrist from Cleveland calls to say he’s moving his practice to Brownsville, Texas. Briefly WBZ fades out and another station fades in during the conversation. Larry asks Dr. Johnson if his patients wash their feet and wear clean socks to an office visit!

Dorothy from South Boston (Southie) calls to say her birthday was yesterday, Wednesday June 29th (1917). She says she doesn’t smoke or drink. Larry asks her if she ever, ahh, ever, ugh, pause- Dorothy quickly interjects that she never did “that” either. Laughs…Dorothy wants a T-Shirt from Larry. She whistles, but didn’t get the mystery singers name. But she guesses correctly “The Lone Ranger” clip.

Ed from Baltimore calls to tell Larry he shouldn’t have made Dorothy work so hard for that T-Shirt.

First time caller “Richey” says to applaud the Boston Police Dept for working the 4th of July weekend.

A commercial for CVS!

(I didn’t know they were in business back then!)

Larry Glick - WBZ Boston - June 30, 1977 (Part 5) The beginning of hour number 3 just after the network news, Larry reads the winning lottery numbers, and then he reads the weather where he dates the show “Thursday June 30th, 1977”. He then goes into his sports shtick (snapping fingers..”hi sports fans and the BZ scoreboard, Ace Glick reporting”) a whistle (shave-and-a-hair-cut-two-bits) and it’s done.

An editorial, some commercials, and then Larry spends the next 10 minutes talking with June Cooper at Alan’s Truck stop (who sponsored the segment). June introduces several truckers who talk with Larry about their craft. This is a unique way to include a sponsor within the program itself, all the while providing entertainment within the shows format.

Larry talks with a caller about various ethnicities. What Larry said would today probably be considered politically incorrect. Back then, people were not as uptight as they are today, or perhaps it was just Larry Glick’s easygoing style that made it funny.

Ellen, a caller from Detroit wants to know how much time before news because she always seems to get on and Larry runs out of time. Larry and Ellen discuss the different way people from different parts of the country pronounce names differently. Quincy-Quinzy; Mother-Mutha, etc.

Caller “Uwe” (Swedish name, but originally from Germany) calls Larry, they then begin having a conversation in German. Funny! End of the hour.
