Carl Banas CKFM "The Sound of Our Toronto" 70s Radio

May 12, 1975. Yoinked from the web because these Banas spots seguing into "Hey Nineteen” or “Peg” was the soundtrack of my childhood. Queue one up back to back for full effect
Banas is better known for his Muppet and Rankin-Bass voice work. He was “Head Elf and various Misfit Toys” in Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, the original voice of Sweetums, and Schaefer etc. on Raccoons. He celebrated his 95th birthday this January, best to you good sir.
Happy birthday to me, miss you dad

Carl voiced so many commercials on radio and TV, including the classic 1980s NOMA Christmas lights commercial, showing the grandparents arriving at a family's light-bedecked home, on a snowy Christmas evening.
He's also one of the last 2 surviving voice cast members of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" (1964). Corinne Conley is the other.
