Information about Pams
PAMS (an acronym for Production, Advertising, and Merchandising Services), based in Dallas, Texas, was the most famous jingle production company in American broadcasting. The company was founded by Bill Meeks (William B. Meeks, Jr. b.March 2, 1921 - d.December 8, 1999)[1] in 1951, and produced identification packages for radio stations around the world, as well as some commercial music. PAMS led the way in the usage of recycled pre-recorded backing tracks with new vocals over them to create the syndication of ID Jingles.
It suspended operation in 1978, and for the next 12 years, produced jingles under the CPMG/PAMS moniker run by Ken R. Deutsch[2] (in Toledo, OH) and Benjamin Freedman[3] (both in the Buffalo, NY area and Dallas, TX). In 1990, the name PAMS and all copyrights were turned over to the original PAMS[4] as revived by another company, JAM Creative Productions (also based in Dallas), which currently produces new versions of the classic PAMS jingle packages over the original PAMS backing tracks but technically is still a separate company from PAMS. JAM founder Jonathan M. Wolfert was employed by PAMS before he and wife Mary Lyn Wolfert started their own company in 1974. Many of PAMS jingle packages were used exclusively in the 1960s and early 1970s by Top 40 stations worldwide. WABC in New York City, WLS in Chicago, and BBC Radio 1 in the UK were three of PAMS' biggest clients.
