WBZ-TV "We're 4" station promos 1976-78 

Hey, that's my piano in this video. The folks at 4 rented it from me for the commercial. Pretty neat. Thanks.

Thank you so much for posting this! I remember when that first one was running on WBZ-TV in late 1976 thru April 1977. It's just fantastic to see that promo spot again!

Liked seeing a few old familiar faces in the last promo : Sharon King,Dan Rea,Tony Pepper,and a very young Jack Williams (blue jogging suit).

It's funny these promos are 30 years old yet still look like they could have been recorded in like 1988 the quality is so good.

0:29 This same clip was used for KDKA-TV's "Here's 2" promo in Pittsburgh and the clip at 3:03 was used for WDIV-TV's "We're 4" promo in Detroit.

This promo was reused a few years later at WFOR in Miami (look for the WCIX/WFOR/WTVJ switch)

Man, this was when WBZ was tops (and worth watching). Agree to disagree, I don't like what's become of the station. Some things won't change. I accept and respect that, but the legend is gone. Indeed, the old "Group W" style font wouldn't help them. It wouldn't even match. Thanks VT for making We're 4 available here. I mean it. This is our "piece of the 'old school' Boston TV rock"!!

I love this theme!!!

Scary that I still remember most of these promos thirty-five years later! The Hancock tower (0.43) must have just been completed.

@Ian16545 It is the facade of the Prudential Building.

The We're 4 You promo has Erich Kunzel, then the conductor of the Boston Pops. He's in Cincinnati, conducting the Pops orchestra there. If stations, want eyeballs, start doing promos like this again...People love community-based promos.

it's all about....CANDLEPIN BOWLING!!!!

Not to be naive here, but what's the Boston landmark in the sixth promo at 2:35?

At 2:54, they say that "we're for hope and Yankee Pride". Yankee pride? Not in Boston! GO RED SOX! On another not, the people in those videos seemed to enjoy being in WBZ's promos because they were smiling and waving at the cameras.

I remember this promo, I could even sing parts of it! Too bad channel 4 stinks now, I hate their "Opinion" format, I want accurate, truthful news, not some talking heads' opinion/slant on a news story. They need to really revamp their station, they've lost their credibility. I miss the old days!

Those corny ideals! Haha.
