As we kick off the month of November and your webmaster says goodbye to Memphis, here’s a ‘goodbye’ of a different kind. Al Bandiero handed off his weekly ‘classics’ show on Hot 97 – kinda low key but very nicely done, Bandiero passes the baton to Paco – a one-of-a-kind sounding jock who does a great job mixing the dance hits.

Hi, just some info about WKTU. Yes they changed to basically a CHR-Urban hybrid circa 1984. What is interesting is their somewhat disparate lineup:
Jay Thomas, Jo Matta (Madame,) Dan Ingram (believe it or not) who was there for about six months (I can only imagine his buyout) and Rosko and Rosko. The aircheck posted here features Maria Melito. Apologies for all misspellings. KTU switched to K-Rock the day after the Live Aid concert which they broadcast. K-Rock’s first day (Sunday July 7th) featured “the Boss” A-Z or some variation of that.
I am getting an error when I download to Real Player. Am anxious to hear this one!
Great site…Keep it up!
Hello–
Great site, but the Hot 97 Classics from July ‘92 doesnt seem to be playing.
