Chris Curtis, 56 WHBQ Memphis | Spring, 1973
Contributor Rob Grayson has digitized more of his tape collection. This is from the first of six sent in this week. Rob writes: “More goodies… these were recorded all on the same day in Spring of 1973, and I think I got them from Memphis DJ Don Roberts (Barney Raines), straight off the radio. You…
Memphis Mark Billingsly, 105.9 WGKX Memphis| 1994
New Contributor Kevin McCardle says, ” I have a scoped aircheck from February 1994 for WGKX-FM (Kix 106)Memphis with Memphis Mark Billingsley. I recorded it onto cassette tape when I lived in Bartlett, TN at that time. I recently transferred it to my computer .mp3 file and it sounds great!” Memphis Mark certainly has been…
QuickChexx: Garner Miller, 95.3 WEBL Coldwater (Memphis) MS | September 1, 2013
Short as it is, this is the final demo scope of Garner Miller. An incredibly talented jock, and as this demo shows, a very talented commercial and sweeper producer. This aircheck was obtained by our friend Matt Seinberg, owner of Big Apple Airchecks. I’m not sure who gave Matt this, but he and I put…
Garner Miller, 99.7 WMC-FM Memphis | June 11, 2006
Well, after three attempts to write the description for this aircheck, perhaps your webmaster will get it right. This recording is probably the best way to celebrate the life of Garner Miller. It is the first of many we’ve obtained, and it certainly won’t be the last one we post. You’ll notice right off the…
QuickChexx: Rob Grayson, WMC-FM 100 (99.7) Memphis
While this was submitted without a date, something tells me that it was recorded sometime around the 2006-07 timeframe, likely just after your webmaster left the station – and Memphis – for good. Here’s another glimpse into FM-100’s “Whatever Weekend”, a take on the once wildly popular ‘Jack-FM’ format. Really, just a retro 80s/90s classic…
QuickChexx: KMPZ-FM Z98 Memphis | January 17, 1989
This is just about the shortest aircheck on the site, but we’ve added it because there is no audio that we can find anywhere from this era of 98.1 FM in Memphis. Contributed by Henry Nelson, PD of WRBO Memphis in a box of what he termed ‘junk’ (one man’s junk is another man’s treasure…),…
Format Change: Standards WJCE Flips to Progressive Talk 680 WWTQ Memphis | January 28, 2005
With ratings continuing to slowly fall, aging demos and a business core becoming more unwilling to advertize to persons over 55, Entercom pulled the plug on its AM Standard’s outlet WJCE. The call letters were originally chosen to compliment an Urban AC format called “The Juice” some years earlier and were not changed when that…
Walt Jackson & Bob Landry “Buffoon of Memphis”, 56 WHBQ Memphis | Summer 1977
Returning a classic into the Archives, here’s the station that launched the careers of Rick Dees, Jack Parnell, and even Elvis Presley. RKO General O/O WHBQ was known as the ‘farm station’ of the RKO chain. Dees had left for Los Angeles the year prior, and the Q is still rockin. Its 1977 and Star…
