John Lanagan, 1220 WGAR Cleveland | February 4, 1977
“What a pain in your assets!” Curator’s Notes: Every time I hear an aircheck of WGAR from the late seventies, it’s always tight, the jocks funny and the music is right on the mark. One would expect no less from the flagship station of Nationwide Communications – you know, the insurance company.. Now,…

The Top 8 at 8, 107.9 WPHR “Power 108” Cleveland | 1990
“Cat” is playing the hits, captured on tape for posterity on Cleveland’s “Power 108”.
