Pre-Gloria Monty GH what was it like?

[EricMontreal22]

As someone who has never followed GH closely, when ABC had their Daytime to Remember I found it interesting that, they gave GH more weeks than AMC and OLTL for classic episodes (a full month, I believe--OLTL got 2 weeks and AMC got 3) but they went from one 1964 episode--which feels like goodold, if undistinguished early 60s soap--to a 1980 episode! GH, I ahd read, has more early episodes saved than AMC or OLTL, it seems odd they ignored so much--especially since I know, as rough as it was rightbefore Monty, many think it was great under the Pollocks, and of course when Marland and Monty came in, etc

( http://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/gh/adaytimetoremember.html is a listing of the episodes they decided to air)

Wiki doesn't have a writers list for GH like they do most soaps--is there somewhere with a good breakdown of who wrote what years?
