At last week’s SCA Radio Writers Award presentation, Meerkats co-founder Mike Edmonds delivered a tribute to radio maestro Street Remley, who passed away in September.
As part of it, Edmonds played three of Remley’s all-time favourite radio ads. It is not known if Remley wrote all three of these spots, but he played them every year at his famous writing workshops as examples of just how good radio advertising could be.
Even though they are more than 40 years old, they still hold-up today.
