Michael J. O’Brien; Larry Dobbs, 92.9 WBOS Brookline (Boston) | December 21, 1986
Before WKLB, WCLB, WBCS and even before Garth Brooks became known as a Country star, the station at 92.9 in Boston took on the unalienable task of trying to convince Bostonians that Country music was indeed a popular form of music worth their quarter-hours of listening time. But this was the mid-1980s and despite the…

Sample: 104.9 KXNA Fayetteville Ark. | January 19, 2002
At Airchexx we have a pretty deep network of contributors, and some have asked to remain annonymous. But we do have the tapes! Here’s one which came to us as a 45 minute unscoped recording of Modern Rocker 104-9 The X out in tornado alley. Something about Rock-based formats from this particular point in time,…

Jackson Armstrong, WHYI ‘Y-100’ Miami | June, 1975
Fresh “master” copy sent in courtesy of our friends at California Aircheck! It’s Your Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeder on Y-100! There’s only two guys I’ve ever heard who talk this fast – Terry ‘Motormouth’ Young on XM’s 60s on 6 channel and Jackson Armstrong. Jack was the original! Like so many people whose ships pass in the night,…

A Sample of 92.5 KQRS Golden Valley, MN
Sometimes there’s not much one can say about an aircheck. At just over one minute, and not much for material other than a few sweepers, one doesn’t fully experience this Classic Rock station, however, it appears that whatever this was, it still is. Here’s a sample, thanks to Contributor David Hudach.

Joe Leone Demo, CKIS “Oldies 990” Montreal | 1992
Contributor Daniel Coulombe from Canada sent this in a few years ago. Joe Leone was a personality on this short-lived incarnation of what once was the legendary Bilingual Top 40 CKGM. Perhaps our favorite top 40 personalities of all time were heard on CKGM, but you should really judge for yourself. Appropriately running about 3…

Charlie Tuna; Chris Taylor, 93.1 KCBS-FM Los Angeles | 1993
We know it’s a Friday morning, as Charlie Tuna says, “Have a Good Weekend”, and this is Los Angeles. One of the greatest attempts to topple crosstown KRTH “K-Earth 101 is heard here, with one of KHJ’s legendary jocks holding down morning drive! Contributor Steven Green was willing to share this golden gem from the…

QuickChexx: M. G. Kelly, 93 KHJ Los Angeles
Courtesy of Contributor Mike Donovan… Not exactly sure where this came from but it appears to be a demo from Machine Gun Kelly from his days at KHJ. Think of how many things no PD in radio today would tolerate on the air, and realize that most of what Kelly does on the air here…
Jack Daniel, 99.7 WJZR (Z100) Kannapolis NC | December, 1984
For those who don’t know of Kannapolis, its a suburb of Charlotte, NC. That’s the official C.O.L. (City of License) of the former WJZR, known at the time of this recording as Z100, “The Carolina’s FIRST Hit Music Radio Station”. Feel free to discuss why they picked that slogan. Z100 has been gone for so…
