From 80s synth-pop to unexpected chart-toppers, these one-hit wonders left an indelible mark on music history. Our countdown includes legendary tracks like "Take On Me," "Video Killed the Radio Star," "99 Luftballons," and more that became cultural phenomena despite their artists' short-lived success

Old Time Radio Show of the Week
The Great Gildersleeve
starring Harold Peary as Gildersleeve
This is one of my favorite OTR shows, its funny and I love the interaction each person has with Gildy (as he is called by Judge Hooker). Of course I love Leroy played by Walter Tetley who was a almost a grown man but he was blessed with a voice that sounded way younger than he was or looked. If you love Walter then The Phil Harris & Alice Fay Show is a great show for you to hear him as Julius the grocery boy.
This particular episode highlights Leroy and his interactions with Unc (his Uncle the Great Gildersleeve).
