WEZE, WCOP and NBC

[Dan.Strassberg]

If you noticed, the two Cs in the GCC logo rotated in opposite
directions, so instead of acting as a takeup reel for the film from
the upper C, the lower C spilled the film on the floor, where it must
have created an incredible mess. No doubt the film became so tangled
it would never again pass through the projector without causing a jam.
One often hears that companies get into financial trouble when they
neglect or forget about the fundamentals of their business. Certainly,
if you run movie theaters, knowing how to thread a projector is one of
those fundamentals. Maybe in this age of digital delivery of
theatrical films, the same fundamentals no longer apply. Therefore,
maybe a resurrected GCC could make it in this new age;>)

I knew about General Cinema and their ownership of WHUE. They had a
theatre in Peabody and
before the show they'd have an animation of their logo, a G, C, and C,
that looked like a projector (the
C's being the film reel and takeup reel). As a beautiful music station
on 100.7 and 1150,
the ads in the paper read "Beautiful Music for YOU" (apparently we
were to pronounce
the "HUE" as "YOU"...)

You can see that GCC logo here:
