  1. I remember listening to Eddie Chase in middle school in Southfield, MI. I still remember his theme tune…….Come take a trip on the magic carpet……….and listen to the music of the stars. I sing it every now and then.. I wish I could find a copy of it.

      1. I am the daughter of Fran and Bob Bryce, who were Mable and Eddie’s best friends. I would love to hear from you! Judy Bryce Filler

  2. FOR SOME REASON I WAS THINKING ABOUT ALL THE D J’S I LISTENED TO BACK IN THE 40’S AND 50’S. ONE IN PARTICULAR WAS EDDIE CHASE AND HIS “MAKE BELIEVE BALLROOM” THEME SONG EACH TIME THE PROGRAM BEGAN.. HE SURE WAS EXTREMELY LIKABLE AND WAS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT ALL THE RECORDING ARTIST!!! SURE WISH I COULD HERE HIS VOICE AGAIN.

    1. I have never heard a broadcast of my grandfathers and wish I could find one, I’m sure they must exist somewhere!

      1. Hi Jim,

        Hope all is well. I was just going through some old files for my book “Rockin’ Down the Dial” and found a bunch of things sent to me by Eddie Chase. I remembered seeing Kathleen Chase’s comments a while back and thought she would be interested. Can you please let her know to contact me at this email address.

        Thanks,
        David Carson

    1. Hi Kathleen, I contacted David Carson this evening. He provided his contact email and I, in turn, sent him your email address therefore he may be contacting you, regarding what he may have of your grandfather, Eddie Chase. I trust that you will be hearing from him shortly. If not, please let me know after some time and I will provide you his contact information where you can reach him instead. Thank you Kathleen for your comments and for visiting Motor City Radio Flashbacks.

      1. Hi Gary!
        Do you have any Photos of my Grandfather? We have so few and then only “publicity” type photos…. After my Grandfather & Mabel died our family had hoped to get some family mementos but sadly that never happened. My father was William “Eddie” Chase’s only child.

  3. DAVID I actually have your book and tried contacting you thru the contacts listed in the book. 🙁

    1. Kathleen, those may be outdated. I just read David Carson’s email and he will be contacting you in regards.
