WARM AND THE SONGS OF JUNE 

WARM Radio, in the summer of '67 was everywhere. The songs on the WARM survey sheet blare in homes, garages and on car radio. The Temptations were at number 14 singing about "7 Rooms of Gloom" and coming in at number 13 was an homage to "The Wizard of Oz" with the 5th Estate singing about that wicked witch. "Ding Dong the Witch Is Dead" was a pithy novelty song that fit right into the summer songfest.Another fun song was one of the last for the Royal Guardsman" called "Airplane". Number 40 was "Temptation" By Boots Randolph!
