January 22, 1960 on WDBJ 7 in Roanoke, VA

       During the 1960's, my two brothers and I were able see about the first 15 minutes of Top O' The Morning before had to catch the school bus. Some of the best music ever. The host, Irv Sharp, would sometimes join Don Reno and Red Smiley on his piano.

     When we found that we were able to receive this channel in January 1962, my brothers and I would watch this show when school was closed for snow. We also got to see it some during the summer if it was raining enough to keep us out of the fields on our farm. The show was hosted by Irv Sharp who also hosted Top O' The Morning earlier each weekday.
