Oklahoma Rock and Roll - Shy Guy

Click here to listen to Shy Guy (from radio show #4): Mike Wallace made a brief appearance on our Oklahoma Rock and Roll radio show. It was Show #4 - the first of two shows we did on Oklahoma POP - pop music and pop culture with some sort of connection to Oklahoma. I thought I'd share this little segment that features just a tiny bit of the movie The Outsiders (filmed in Oklahoma and based on the book written by S.E. Hinton from Tulsa). That takes us in to a 'school film' about outsiders called The Shy Guy, featuring Dick York from Bewitched, and Mike Wallace as the narrator. The Shy Guy, with his "record transmitter and microphone" (and oscillator), sets the stage for the great Five Americans record, Western Union - complete with a bit of my buddy, disc jockey Ronnie Kaye from WKY (now KOMA) radio in Oklahoma City. Finishing up the segment is a commercial (Sherman Oaks and Mazeppa) for Jerry Ralph R. B. Bob Bevis Furniture Warehouse Revolution. Good times...
