On this day in Music History - Jan 10, 1976 The North American fascination with CB radios helped push C.W. McCall's truck driving song, "Convoy" to the top of the Billboard Pop chart. McCall, whose real name was William Dale Fries, Jr., used a pre-Rap vocal technique that wavers between singing and speaking called "sprechgesang" (German for spoken-song and spoken-voice). He would place three more songs on the Hot 100 and a dozen on the Country chart. | Johnny Rock and Roll Radio

In 1976, Midland Communications featured C.W. McCall in a television commercial promoting their CB radios. The ad played off the success of McCall’s hit “Convoy,” using a reworked version of the song to spotlight Midland as the go-to brand for truckers and CB enthusiasts during the height of the CB radio craze. #trucking #country | Truck Stop Chic

Convoy from 1978 is a rowdy, CB radio-fueled action film directed by Sam Peckinpah and inspired by the hit song from C.W. McCall. Kris Kristofferson stars as “Rubber Duck,” a maverick trucker who leads a coast-to-coast convoy in protest of corrupt law enforcement. Packed with big rigs, bar fights, and diesel-fueled rebellion, it turned a novelty song into a full-blown outlaw statement on wheels. #americana | Truck Stop Chic
