Airchexx Presents: The WLS Jingle Montage
Courtesy of Contributor and Featured Jock Allen Beebe… Jingle freaks, this is as close to heaven as one can get! Starting with the first Top 40 jingle package, An Anita Kerr package, if I recall correctly, this blows through many of the major jingles heard on WLS from 1960 through the talkradio years! Whether you…
Boss Radio Birthday Bash; 93 KHJ Los Angeles
Contributor Allen Beebe (WNBC/KNFX/KODE/KGBC/KNOE/KMJC) sent this in on the occasion of the passing of legendary KHJ Los Angeles producer Bill Mouzis, who passed away on January 12, 2013 at the age of 90. The L.A. Observed posted a wonderful obituary for Mouzis which you can read HERE. Sometimes the road to Airchexx is long and…
Bill Rock, 103.5 WYNY New York
Bill Rock was well known in New York prior to the Country version of WYNY, having been part of WNBC for many years. Here’s Bill on Y103.5 in its country incarnation. We might call it the fourth incarnation of WYNY, counting in the 70s “All News” format, AC as “New York 97” on 97.1, Country…
Chris Anderson, 690 XETRA Tijuana, Mexico | 1984
Contributor Chris Anderson sent in this short scope of himself at the legendary “Mighty 690”. Marketed back in the music days to Los Angeles (and San Diego), this super-powered AM station was in the last days of it’s Top 40 format and would flip to Oldies as ’69 Extra Gold’ later in 1984. I’m guessing…
Russ Mottla, 97.9 WIYY Baltimore | June 1, 1990
Contributor Russ Varndell sent this one in last year and now that we’re freezing in January, its probably time for a Summer warm up! This was recorded the weekend after Memorial Day, and ‘Detour’ Dave Sandler (WBAL 1090/WBAL-TV 11) is giving the traffic reports to Ocean City and all over the Baltimore area, from the…
Dick Summer; “Mouth vs Ear”, 97.1 WYNY New York | January 1979
Dick Summer has become a good friend to us here at Airchexx and its always great when he sends in something REALLY special. This time, we’re back in New York, at 30 Rock and the studios of WYNY “New York 97”. The control room is packed for another exciting edition of “Mouth vs Ear”. Dick…
Rick Hunter, 106.7 WLTW New York | 1999
Contributor Rick Hunter (WODS/WCBS-FM/WYNY)is featured in this QuickCheck which doubles, apparently, as one of his demos. We’re guessing here as to the exact year, but judging from the music – from memory, mind you, thinking 1999, based upon Brian McKnight’s version of “Back at One” (and don’t get me started, arguing that Mark Wills’ version…
Fred Winston, 104.3 WJMK Chicago | January 10, 1990
Somewhere below the cellar is Fred Winston’s voice. His on air charm and sense of humor are natural talents. Its Ratings Day and Winston tells Newsman John Priester he brought all three of his listeners from the World’s Largest Stockpile, er, WLS- which he couldn’t mention on Majic 104. Not that THAT would stop anyone…
