JC Penney radio commercial

Sign in to disble this ad
Anybody heard the JC Penney radio commercials lately? What is that song? It has the melody played on the bass, and starts off very low, and goes way into the upper register. Kind of jazz sounding, but pretty bright and poppy, too. From the 70's, I think?

Sorry hon, but I haven't heard the commercial yet. Could it be just for the local stores over there? I'm in the Austin area.

I just wonder if it could be something by The Crusaders, or Stanley Clarke, from that era? They did a lot of bright/poppy stuff back then. The Crusaders are pretty much all pop-jazz.

Just guessing, not having heard it yet.

The song is just used in several JC Penney radio advert. I have heard it advertising jeans, women's clothing, shoes, etc.

All I could find is that it might be a remix version of "bang a gong" by Jakob Dylan.......I'm not sure about that b/c I didn't really recognize it as that....

Scour youtube for the ad if you can. Maybe they use something similar for TV or someone just recorded it for youtube.

Nope, that's not it.

Brad Johnson, are you out there? Based on my description of the song, he might know it.

The song is from a series of radio commercials, so I doubt if Youtube will help either.
