From the Archives 70: Jerry Springer, Save the Terminal/Faded Photos (1973)

In 1973, while he was a member of Cincinnati City Council, Jerry Springer recorded this 45 single, advocating to preserve the Cincinnati Union Terminal. The terminal was built in 1933, but train service to the terminal ended in 1973. Nevertheless, Union Terminal was the model for the Justice League's Hall of Justice in the 1970s Hanna-Barbera cartoon "Super Friends." The City Council voted the terminal a historic landmark, but Southern Railway tore down the concourse in 1974.Springer recorded these two tracks "Save the Terminal" and "Faded Photos (Just Won't Do)." "Save the Terminal" was written by S. Flaharty, T. West, and J. Eliot. "Faded Photos (Just Won't Do)" was written by S. O'Shea and S. Flaharty.Springer resigned in 1974, after admitting to hiring a prostitute, but was later re-elected. Eventually, he moved into journalist, and abandoned his political career. Hosted on Acast.
