590 MIGHTY MEMORY #207

GERRY GRANAHAN MEETS THE MAYOR, WARM AND HIS FAN CLUB 

Gerry Granahan was from Pittston and he was one of the first locals to get a break out hit when Rock and Roll came on the scene. Granahan even had a fan club and got the key to the city. This was engineered by his fan club as well as The Mighty 590 that was still located in downtown Scranton in the Bowman Building. 
Check out this great photo featuring the late Mayor James Hanlon who was in his final term as Mayor. Here's the photo followed by Granahan's hit, "No Chimse Please" and his version of "Unchained Melody".
From left to right, Harold Granahan, The All Nite Satellite Len Woloson, Granahan, Don Stevens, the Mayor, and the President and Vice President (unidentified by the newspaper) of The Gerry Granahan fan club.
