Showcase America was a label created by club owner Frank Gosman in 1971.
Every Sunday afternoon from the late 1960s through the 1970s, Gosman hosted his own radio show, live from the Tin Dipper (his club), on WDON (1540 AM). He closed the club in 1986 and stopped broadcasting. "Country music greats such as Ernest Tubb, Jack Greene and Lester Flatt played Mr. Gosman's clubs, and his weekly talent shows led up to a single grand-prize winner each year, who won a Nashville recording contract on Mr. Gosman's label, Country Showcase America." By CSA 171, distribution had changed to NSD. |
