Did any other radio station do a signature song this good?

Back in the ’50s and ’60s. one of the best radio stations was KSFO–good talent, good music. And a *great* signature song, The Sound of the City. You couldn’t call it a jingle: it’s more than a minute long and anything but a jingle.

I was fortunate enough to get a copy from a radio columnist. I now see that YouTube has a version that’s not quite as high quality (just a little distorted and bass-heavy), but pretty close:

So, my question is: Did any other radio station, anywhere, any time, do anything this classy? And if they did, could you point it out?

Or just, you know, enjoy The Sound of the City.
