Bob Trout, who counted down to 1958, was a longtime CBS News correspondent who anchored CBS Radio coverage of numerous special events from the 1930's until the 1970's.
I was born in 1957 and my sister was born in 1958. Irish Twins. LOL! The guy in Times Square looks like he could have been in a horror flick. Really funny!
Damn this is dope actually lol I'm obsessed with the history of like New Year's Eve cuz it's my fave time of the year cuz it means where one year closer to the future baby! It's amazing how they celebrated back then and didn't even think that time square now is like a futuristic jungle lol with big ass massive tv screens on the sky scrapers and neon lights ever where
I am surprised Guy Lombardo did New Year's Eve 1957-58 at the Roosevelt Grill. I had assumed every time he performed on New Year's Eve at the grand ballroom of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel every year from the early 1930's until his death.
Katabellion my grandma (Father) was born in 1955 and my grandpa (also my Father‘s side) in 1947. My mother‘s mother was born in 1933 and my mother‘s father in 1928, so...
Much better and so much more class than Dick Clark's garbage new years show. Haven't seen it but once since he passed so I imagine it's even worse especially in today's degenerate cultural climate. I turned off the degenerate propaganda tube over a decade ago............
These New Years videos are very rare finds. Rare gem. Also, that clip could make you a lot of money!

I was in Kindergarten in Brooklyn on New Year's Eve 1957-58. My parents were probably watching this.
