Pepper-Tanner were more a commercial/advert jingle company that also got into radio ID jingles.

Anyone as old as me will remember the burgundy-lidded P-T demo tape boxes, and the demos in
them often ended with Pepper-Tanner's own “commercial” for themselves, which had a lyric along
the lines of #”Pepper and Tanner, Pepper and Tanner, Boosting Your Sales in a Musical Manner”#

Just found a online record store with a lot of old pepper tanner coomercial records
and even
167990 National Association of Broadcasters: Swing Into Spring With a Portable Radio (NAB(M) LP) $42 VG+/VG+ 1967,gfld,inserts

Pepper-Tanner's ID business was never their main business but utilized as “trade” for airing their clients commercials. They also brokered equipment for radio stations in exchange for commercial time. The ID jingles were just a vehicle…

Tanner also had a lot of commercial production libraries, which occasionally show up on eBay and such. The masters are now owned by Jones TM, who has incorporated some of them into their production libraries.

Tuesday Productions, who also did a couple of ID packages, is still successfully in the commercial production business.

I sort of asked this question on another thread but never got an answer but the Tuesday Productions who did the Luxy stuff, does anyone know if they are one and the same?

Gazza,

it certainly was the same jingle company – Radio Luxembourg also had the Whisper package from Tuesday Productions, I`ve just put this montage together of Luxy cuts, enjoy.

I went through Tuesday Productions archives when I was in San Diego 9/2001. They have nothing left of the ID Jingle references.

I still have fond memories of Tanner Libraries like Showcase Production Music, Trendsetter, Sound Of Broadcasting and others… The dutch public broadcasters used them extensively. They even sang jingles on them. f.i. Radio Veronica. And a lot of Top Formats earliest packages were in fact SPM of SOB beds on which vocals were added. The quality went downhill very fast when media general took over..

Some time this week i'll try to post the orginal Tanner SPM demo..

It's not called the Whisper package. I have no idea why it's referred to as such by some collectors. The Whisper package was done by Peters Productions (also of San Diego) – I've never heard it, but I've read about it in Don Worsham's book. It involved the singers whispering the station calls…

I've heard of the Tuesday KHJ package referred to as “Rhythm of the Southland,” and also as “Sound of the Southland.” I have no idea which one is the correct name.

It's also sometimes confused with TM's “Rhythm of the City” (from which KHJ only got the main promo song).

Tuesday Productions had a package simply entitled “Whispers” — where they whispered the call letters of the radio stations. In addition, the package came with a bunch of “whispers” pre-records with recording artist names.

I have WHYN's master reels and pre-records on the shelf here. If I ever get around to transferring them to CD, I'll have to post a few examples.

As far as i know, Tuesday made at least two different demo's for Whispers. One I've upoaded earlier

I'll dig out the other one one of these days : }
