Johnny Hayes, 101.1 KRTH Los Angeles “K-Earth 101” | September 17, 2001
Right in the shadow of 9/11, patriotism is at a 50 year high and Johnny Hayes starts out with comments about flags and buying American in two breaks in a row. One could hardly blame him, most of us felt the same way. And perhaps, thats the best part of this short scope of K-Earth…
The Return of Beaver Clever, 98.7 WXLO “99X” New York | June 9, 1979
Listen now as Beaver Clever throws himself into a high energy Top 40 radio show. Frankly, its amazing that 99X didn’t beat crosstown, cross-band WABC at its own game right here in ’79, but that distinction was reserved for “Disco 92”. You’ll notice that 99X leans slightly in a Rock direction while playing the Disco…
Composite #2, 98.7 WXLO “99X” New York | January 4, 1979
Big Apple Airchecks presents: 55 minutes of a broadcast day on WXLO 99X! Part one posted a very long time ago and we’re just getting around to putting up the other orignal, which is in better shape remastered than the original. This begins with Rob Sisco and its a wonderful slice of how radio was…
Return of a Legend: Scott Shannon’s First Show; 101.1 WCBS-FM New York, Part 2 | March 3, 2014
Continuing where Part 1 left off, Scott Shannon is given a huge welcome as the new host of the WCBS-FM Morning show! WCBS-FM has come a long way from the days when “Jack” put an end to the Oldies of the 50s and 60s, and what wasn’t even mentioned on this first day (why would…
QuickChexx: Art Scott, 1480 WMQM Memphis | April 11, 1973
From Contributor Rob Grayson, here’s the final installment of our series of Memphis radio from 1973. WMQM at 1480 AM was a fulltime Country station – a station that specialized, apparently, in older Country music, judging by the songs heard on this short aircheck. There’s just over two minutes of this scope featuring Art Scott,…
Return of a Legend: Scott Shannon’s First Show; 101.1 WCBS-FM New York, Part 1 | March 3, 2014
Starting out much the way WHTZ “Z-100” did in 1983, legendary programmer, jock and superb morning host Scott Shannon returns to wake New Yorkers after a one week break following his ‘retirement’ from 23 years in Mornings at WPLJ. What a welcome Shannon gets! CBS-FM re-did it’s imaging, new JAM jingles to recreate the early…
Mitch Craig, 68 WMPS Memphis | Spring, 1973
“From the Gateway to Mid-America!…” The WMPS Top hour legal ID says it all. A Broadcast service of Plough, Incorporated, WMPS put up stiff competition to RKO General’s 56 WHBQ and for a while they even seemed to trade jocks! Mitch Craig is heard doing Afternoons. This is short and much of it was scoped…
Donnie Brooks, 68 WMPS Memphis | Spring, 1973
It’s a Friday night at “Super 68” and Donnie Brooks is at the controls of Plough’s superstation! WMPS is doing its best to imitate Chicago’s WLS, and by the sounds of this aircheck, it’s working. Note the WLS type jingles, such as the cut “The Rock of the River“, set to the tune of WLS’…
