SPC Woody Bullard - I was going to mention bubblegum pop but I thought it was a regional thing. Lt Col Charlie Brown

SGT (Join to see) - That "Bubblegum" pop music was big among preteens and the younger teens back in the 60's. Not so popular with the older teens though.
The songs had that catchy sound to them but I was not a fan. I liked Rock&Roll and blues like what was being played at the Ocean Pier.

SPC Woody Bullard - I agree with you. That was the problem with a lot of AM radio stations back then. It was difficult to find that edgy rock and roll.

Ya AM stations that you could great reception from in the house, but go outside and get nothing but static.

Bubblegum pop (also known as bubblegum music or simply bubblegum) is a genre of pop music with an upbeat sound contrived and marketed to appeal to pre-teens and teenagers, which may be produced in an assembly-line process, driven by producers and often using unknown singers. Bubblegum's classic period ran from 1967 to 1972.[1] A second wave of bubblegum began two years later and ran until 1977 when disco took over and punk rock emerged.

Ohio express Chewy Chewy
Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for sharing the bubblegum pop music video of The Ohio Express performing their best scoring single, "Yummy Yummy Yummy".
"The Ohio Express was a musical recording unit, mainly active from 1967 through 1970.The best known songs of Ohio Express (including their best scoring single, "Yummy Yummy Yummy") were actually the work of an assemblage of studio musicians working out of New York, including singer/songwriter Joey Levine.Yummy Yummy Yummy" is a bubblegum pop song by Arthur Resnick and Joey Levine, first recorded by Ohio Express in 1968. Their version reached #4 in the U.S. Pop Singles chart and #5 in the UK Singles Chart. It has since been covered by many artists. Ohio Express was a studio concoction and none of the "official" members appear on the record. Joey Levine sang lead vocals. In the years since it was a hit, the song has become a cheesy staple. In Time Magazine's 2011 list of top 10 songs with silly lyrics it ranked #8. It has been used in a commercial for Kinder chocolate, in a food-themed scene in the television show The Simpsons, in Monty Python's Flying Circus in episode How Not to Be Seen, and in "Last McSupper" scene of the film Super Size Me. "
Ohio Express and 1910 Fruitgum Company being on the same label (Buddah Records), traded their signature songs for the other band to sing. For 1910 Fruitgum Company, it was Yummy, Yummy, Yummy, and for Ohio Express, it was 1-2-3 Red Light.
