J.R. Russ, last night show on WTRU Muskeegon | Undated
For his final act (literally), new contributor J.R. Russ is heard doing his finale on WTRU. Here’s another old-line AM Top 40.

Mike Greene on WQIO Mt. Vernon Oh | 1988
From new contributor Mike Greene comes this short but super hi-fi quickcheck from the Midwest. Mike emailed this one in from his personal collection.
