Aired Monday to Friday, after school, from September 1968 to June 1969.
More music for the teen-set, in this half-hour broadcast from various centres in Canada. This show was the successor to Music Hop and Let’s Go, two of the most important music programs on Canadian television. These shows provided work for a lot of new bands looking to break into the business, but not necessarily starve for their art. One such band was The Guess Who, who were hired as regulars on Let’s Go a year earlier. Some shows were in colour, while the Vancouver and Halifax programs were broadcast in black & white.
