As I was browsing eBay today I came across this gem. Now if only I had 250 bucks just lying around! It is a KGB Chicken “Cluck”….as in Clock. The seller says it has a 1977 copyright on it and runs perfectly on a AA battery. Apparently he’s been trying to sell it on eBay for quite some time since there were declined offers going all the way back to March 13th of this year.

1984 NL Champs “A Dedicated Season” Record (1985)

This is a record from Miller Lite titled “A Dedicated Season”. Not sure if this was a stadium giveaway or not but it has a date of 1985 on the back plus it has the “new” 1985 Padres logo so my guess is it was sold/given away during the 1985 season. It’s still wrapped so I have never had the chance to play it but I believe it’s just a “highlight” reel of the 1984 season since it says that Jerry Coleman is the narrator & that the highlights were compliments of 76 KFMB, Jerry Coleman, Dave Cambell, Bob Chandler & Ted Leitner. There is writing credits for 1 song titled “Talkin’ Number One” and it is written and performed by Steve Vaus. If anyone recalls Vaus and Glenn Erath would occasionally come into the KFMB studios with Hudson and Bauer and perform some songs about the Padres or Chargers. I obviously don’t remember the radio that far back since I was to young but I remember during the 96-98 Padre teams with songs like “Hey Caminiti” (sung to the style of the Macarena). On a side note I actually did some work for Glenn Erath. Nice guy and very talented musician. He does almost all the commercial jingles on 1090 currently (Does 1-800-901-1102 Corky’s ring a bell?).
