I'm stepping up my role with Humble and Fred in 2022, assuming more duties as producer of their podcast. I was thrilled to be a part of a fun retrospective we just dropped on the Humble and Fred podcast feed.
#1 in '97 was a Humble and Fred promotional CD they printed 2000 copies of in 1997 to go with their #1 in '97 campaign, a campaign that actually began in 1995. Humble and Fred tell me they actually hit #1 for their targeted demo before 1997, but since that didn't jive with the campaign, #1 in '97 it was!
Here's the guys looking back 25 years later, reminiscing about the campaign and playing bits, IDs, bumpers and jams from 1997.
