You bet - I was a faithful listener for a number of years of my misspent youth, and WABC carried the broadcast every Saturday evening until sometime in the mid-80s, and then they did rebroadcasts for a couple of years. There are albums pulled from the broadcast supposedly on one of the ABC labels; I don't have any of them, but occasionally get tempted when I see something on eBay.

I'm constantly amazed at amount of stuff that I listened to growing up, really enjoyed, never really thought much about it, but do dearly miss it now. Dr. Demento was a great example - I never really planned to listen to the broadcast, but did as often as I could. And I'd like to have the recordings off the air that never really registered as far as an artist, but when I hear it now instantly reminds me - "Hey - this is really funny!"
