Swingin' Time was a music variety show, similar to American Bandstand, hosted by WKNR-AM (Keener 13) personality Robin Seymour (and also, for a time, CKLW-AM's Tom Shannon). It ran in syndication in the late-1960s. The show featured recording acts, both nationally and locally popular, lip-synching to their latest releases while teenagers showcased the latest dances on the show's dance floor. In its brief run, the show featured well-known acts like Smokey Robinson & the Miracles, Marvin Gaye, Bob Seger and The Four Tops. Rights to surviving footage of the show are now owned by Research Video.
