NYC/Hudson Valley Composite, 1975-1977
Courtesy of longtime Contributor Alan Fletcher, here’s a composite of AM and FM stations in New York City and the Hudson Valley region. It spans a time period from sometime in 1975 to 1977. There’s so much packed into this 30 or so minutes of assorted audio its difficult to write all of it here,…
Steve Brown, 104.1 WQAL Cleveland | July 4, 1998
“Cleveland’s Q104, The Best Variety of the 80s, 90s and Today!” Really, we wish we could just exhibit this unscoped! The audio quality is stellar, the music is SO good (hey, remember, this is before American Idol made everything sound generic), and it’s totally live! Steve Brown is heard here in the Noon hour, on…
Chuck Browning, KFMB-FM ‘B-100’ San Diego | April 1976
“B100 FM with the Original Chucker…” And you’re asking where we dug this up?! Too bad this is only about three minutes long. Chuck Browning was heard all over America within and outside the RKO chain of radio stations, including WXLO New York and KFRC San Francisco, both of which are posted right here on…
Jordan, 96.9 WLAN-FM Lancaster PA | August 29, 1998
There doesn’t seem to be much in the way of posted airchecks from the late 1990s anywhere, and possibly because by then, radio had gelled into the early stages of what we have today, with perhaps more live voices than now. Either way, WLAN-FM sounds very similar in sound to another station we know well,…
MicroChexx: Mucho Morales, KPWR Los Angeles | November 8, 1988
Michael Jackson is still a hot artist – perhaps at the top of his game, in fact, Power 106 is promoting the 2nd night of the Michael Jackson concert the following night. Mucho Morales is featured here, but within the first few seconds, Jay Thomas (WXLO, Sirius/XM) voices a promo for his morning show. This…
Mark Driscoll, 98.7 WOR-FM New York | Winter, 1972
The legacy of New York’s 98.7 continues now with this late edition of WOR-FM featuring the pipes of Mark Driscoll. Listening to this, one might wonder why RKO General felt the need to change call letters. WOR-FM sounds here, much as WXLO sounded a year later, only with different jocks. Listen to the variety! While…
Michael Sarzynski on 66 WNBC New York | October 23, 1978
Thanks to this late submission from our good friend “Magic” Matt over at Big Apple Airchecks, we can bring you a really GOOD, high quality recording of the late WNBC. 1978… probably the biggest year for Disco music, before the days of disco destruction… and here’s WNBC doing it’s best to compete with crosstown WABC.…
QuickChexx: Jimmy King, 98.7 WOR-FM New York | 1969
The audio in this exhibit isn’t the greatest, but this does give the listener a unique window into the modified Bill Drake sound of RKO General’s WOR-FM. Tightly formatted and with a consistent sound throughout all dayparts, WOR-FM was the sound of Drake in New York City. Up for constant speculation over the years is…
