Featured Surveys

Welcome! Let's reminisce and enjoy a few minutes cruisin' down Memory Lane to the tunes of our youth. You're on Blast from Your Past's Featured Radio Surveys page! Enjoy the moment ... again.

Periodically, a cool vintage radio survey - or music chart, Top 40, Top 30, Top whatever - is featured here to coincide with BFYP's "50 Years Ago" trivia. All surveys are from the Blast from Your Past Collection unless noted as radio surveys from other great sites.
  * Artist names and song titles listed as printed on original survey.


Featured Survey / SEPTEMBER 1969:

WIFE/Indianapolis, Indiana frankly has me scratching my head. The cover (scroll past chart) says "Fast Guys Get Free Bunnies." Huh? Were you tuning into WIFE in September 1969? Were they giving away bunnies? Tell me! Enquiring minds wanna know! Enjoy the memories ... Rock On! 50 Years Ago This Month ... *

What did WIFE "Hijackers" mean, and "Fast guys get free bunnies"?! If you know, please let me know. The best part of this survey though, is the plethora of artist "signature" names on the front. Tom Jones, Beach Boys, Roy Orbison, Beatles, Monkees ... just to name a few!
