Louisville Composite: Chuck Brady on WKLO & Gary Burbank on WAKY | 197x (10:02) Scoped

Introducing our first airchecks from Louisville, KY.

This aircheck DOES work now - Apologies to all who tried to listen over the weekend. Technical difficulties.

The WKLO portion of this aircheck lasts about two minutes. It features Chuck Brady, (not Browning)… so anyone who was hoping to hear the ORIGINAL Chucker, hope you weren’t too disappointed. But, he DOES call himself “The Chucker”. Close, but no cigar. The rest of this moves into the Gary Burbank show on WAKY, then Christopher Lundy and a bit more of Burbank. Last I knew, he was still holding down afternoons on 700 WLW Cincinnati.

And, no, Earl Pitts isn’t heard here. Must have been a few years before the American Redneck made his debute.

The audio quality of this aircheck is superb. Note that I can’t determine an exact date for this aircheck. Perhaps one of you listeners knows - we’d all appreciate it if you’d post a comment about this one. I’ll just guess sometime in the mid-1970’s.

    Hey Guys, this is a great composite. As for the date, there was one very helpful tip as to the date during the Gary Burbank segment! Tennessee played Penn State on Saturday, December 4th 1971! Burbank gives the final outcome, 31-11. Chuck Brady also mentions it is a Saturday, if I remember correctly. There was also a Toys For Tots promo. WKLO sponcered a concert at Freedom Hall for Toys For Tots around Christmas time for years and, in 1971, it was held Sunday, December 12th.

    Gotta agree with Dave, this is an exceptional aircheck. Thanks for making this available! Chuck Brady was one of the first Louisville jocks I heard, along with Gary Major. I also agree with his pinpointing of the year as 1971, as several of the records he plays are from around September-November of that year. Also, he plays Hey Jude and announces “3 years ago today” (Hey Jude released in the fall of 1968).

    I recently downloaded an mp3 of Gary Burbank from his brief stint as a jock on New Orleans’ Real Rock WNOE-AM from 1974, and dug it! Hi-larious material: Thelma Hooch, Maw Hirishi, Bass Ackwards…of the three, I liked the Bass Ackwards segments most! 8-)

    A pity he’s retired, though; radio could use a lot more like Gar. ;-)
