Hi KentT,
I’m from Central Wisconsin; the 45 I bought was in Northeastern Wisconsin,
although it was from a chain bookstore (1/2 Priced Books). It was a pleasant
surprise to me to find a copy, especially since this is the same city I got
Wolfman Jack to sign an autograph in 1977-78.

While it doesn't seem to be very common, Yahshure confirmed upthread that the non-Wolfman version was
commercially released.
My copy came from a radio station, but has no promo markings on it, dunno if it was strictly a radio
reservice or not.]]> Fri, 04 Mar 2022 06:43:58 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2331&PID=60373&title=flash-cadillac-the-continental-kids#60373 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2331&PID=60370&title=flash-cadillac-the-continental-kids#60370 Author: Paul Haney

Casey only played the Wolfman version on the original AT40
broadcasts. ]]> Fri, 04 Mar 2022 01:58:26 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2331&PID=60370&title=flash-cadillac-the-continental-kids#60370 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2331&PID=60369&title=flash-cadillac-the-continental-kids#60369 Author: LunarLaugh

Sorry for the misposting earlier. There was a US military
recruiting Wolfman Jack show from recruiters. This was his
Armed Forces Radio Show on Public Service transcription
discs. As weekend air talent and studio engineer when "Did
You Boogie" was new, these discs were common fare for me
as fill ins when I needed to repair automation equipment
in the day. We didn't play them all the time, but when we
needed fill in music on the AM side, those got saved for
me to air.Went through storage, and found I had one. It is
also US Air Force.

I've had several 45 RPM singles of this track, all of them
are Wolfman Jack version. Jono, where are you from? In the
Eastern Tennessee area, all I've seen is Wolfman Jack. I
saw your deadwax info, thanks. I hope to find a copy.

I don't even remember the song at all. I don't think it was played around the stations in STL. I'm probably wrong about that though as I seem to be saying that a lot.
I'm guessing if they did play it, it must have died out quickly.

I listened to a non-Wolfman version on youtube, and it didn't ring any bells for me. I'm going to pull down the Have a nice Day series and listen to the Wolfman.]]> Wed, 23 Feb 2022 00:29:25 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2331&PID=60275&title=flash-cadillac-the-continental-kids#60275 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2331&PID=60272&title=flash-cadillac-the-continental-kids#60272 Author: jono

Interestingly, I was at a used book store an hour from my
house that sells used records and found a 45 of "Did You
Boogie" for $1. It looked hardly played, so I bought it
and lo and behold it's the stereo non-Wolfman version
(PVT-1184-1; it has "AZ" followed by what looks like 2
stick drawn seagulls a 1/4 turn or so afterwards).

I'm so used to the Wolfman version from the "Have A Nice
Day" series that this sounds off. I don't remember
hearing this song much back in the day, so I don't know
what version was played in the Milwaukee area.

A year or two after this record came out, however, I had
an opportunity to stand in a long line to meet Wolfman
Jack and get his autograph. Even though I was probably
12, I thought of him as a huge star back then. Ahh, the
days of radio personalities.

Actually, it was Wolfman Jack himself who contributed the brief "Stereo 92" line in Sugarloaf/Jerry Corbetta's "Don't Call Us, We'll Call You". But there were other hit songs that had imitations of Wolfman's trademark gravelly voice... Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show's "The Cover of 'Rolling Stone'" and the Pipkins' "Gimme Dat Ding" immediately come to mind.

Just a few weeks ago, I listened to streaming audio of an old syndicated Wolfman Jack show and it made me feel like I missed out on a golden era of radio. Unfortunately, his career had pretty much wound down by the time I was even old enough to know and appreciate who he was.]]> Wed, 21 Sep 2011 07:17:58 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2331&PID=31605&title=flash-cadillac-the-continental-kids#31605 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2331&PID=31436&title=flash-cadillac-the-continental-kids#31436 Author: KentT

The station I worked for played this track first in the market, "With Wolfman Jack" and we didn't even carry the Wolfman Jack program (And we were a staunchly Mutual affiliate to the network's demise). Our PD felt like Wolfman's part, rea1ly made the song. ]]> Mon, 05 Sep 2011 19:28:50 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2331&PID=31436&title=flash-cadillac-the-continental-kids#31436
