Chris Jagger, WIOQ Q102 Philadelphia | 1989

WIOQ was undoubtedly the outlet to turn to for the hits in Philly by the end of the 80s. Listening to this 12 minutes of CHR pleasure, Q102 leans Rhythmic, and features Chris Jagger.

    Very cool aircheck. the interesting thing is that the first part with Chris Jagger is very dance music oriented. the second part with Mark Driscal, which I’m assuming was recorded earlier, is straight up CHR. I’d be very interested to know more about WIOQ’s evolution from straight CHR to rhythmic CHR. also, WIOQ went through a number of format changes. I used to listen to them in the 70s when they had an AOR format. At one point I think they also switched to oldies in response to WCAU FM making the same move. they also flirted with a rock alternative format. they finally hit it big with this rhythmic CHR format, and I think that’s what they’re still doing today.

    Hi Steve,

    This is actually 2 airchecks. The first was Chris Jagger (fresh from doing nights at Q107/Washington) doing mornings. The second is WIOQ’s actual format flip from Oldies to CHR-Dance that took place in early 1989 with Program Director/VO Mark Driscoll doing the introduction. I remember giving a copy to Lance almost 10 years ago for the format change archive.

    Peace,
    Robyn
