Russ & Jono, Virgin Radio 1215, London UK | 1996
Now, from brand new Contributor Ellis Feaster, proof that while music on AM may have been dead in the United States by the mid 1990s, overseas it was still very much alive and well! This is the Russ & Jono show on Virgin Radio 1215. There is a lot of hit music, most of it…
Mike Hotaling’s Final Broadcast, “Earth Speaks” – 1300 WQBK Rensselaer NY | 1996
In what would turn out to be its final broadcast, Contributor Mike Hotaling hosts a uniquely local environmental program called “Earth Speaks”. Special guest is Ward Stone. This show deals with the environmental movement and the political consequences of the then-recent elections. “Earth Speaks” was an important community program. Of all the areas which has…
Bobby Jay, 101.1 WCBS-FM New York | June 26, 1996
Here’s a generous portion of Bobby Jay. In hi-fi quicktime stereo! This was recorded back in June of ’96 around the same time as the Max Kinkel aircheck we’re posting this week. Not all jocks are smooth, but some have a very distinctive style. And NOBODY sounds like Bobby Jay! More, from the 90s when…
Dan Ingram, 101.1 WCBS-FM New York | March 9, 1996

This time, we have a pretty long late afternoon/evening composite of 95SX. At the time of this recording, it was pretty much…
Slammin’ Felix Sama, 96.5 WPOW “Power 96” Miami | September 17, 1996
It’s Midnight at the start this 17-minute scope of ‘Miami’s Power Station’. Primarily a Hip Hop station, at this point in time, WPOW is playing a wide variety of music pulling from several genres – from Hispanic to Old Skool to 90s mainstream hits, this is a unique blend of everything non-Rock and non-Country. Honestly,…
Jade Alexander, ‘Thursday Evening’ on WHYI “Y100” Miami | September 17, 1996
Its not often we post 1990s CHR airchecks, but this one is notable for some less than obvious reasons. First, it came in on a cassette (digital airchecking wouldn’t really become mainstream for about 10 years from this). Second, this is NOT a morning show, but a late afternoon show, transitioning into a live 7-midnight…
