Tripp, (99.7) WMC-FM 100 Memphis | May, 2006
Courtesy of one of our great site supporters, AircheckDownloads.com, here’s a capture of one of your webmaster’s friends from Memphis! Tripp (Hurst) is still heard on the Memphis Airwaves, although not at FM 100. WMC-FM, since being acquired by Entercom has pretty much replaced much of the heritage staff since this recording. Much of WMC-FM’s…
Steve West, WMBZ 94-1 The Buzz Memphis | February 2001
From the ashes of Country station WOGY ‘Froggy 94’ arose this Modern AC station called “The Buzz”. This one jock who started a classic radio website poured his heart and soul into the 7-12 night show, back before live evenings became a thing of satellite feeds and pre-recorded voice tracks. It’s early on in the…
George Allen, 94.3 WLVS ‘Stereo Country’ Memphis | 1979
SPECIAL THANKS TO SAMMY REED FOR ALLOWING US TO POST THIS AIRCHECK. Check out Sammy Reed Online here. For most Memphians who remember listening to Country music over the years, the stations most remembered are today’s WGKX “Kix 106”, 790 WMC and a station known for seven years as “Froggy 94” – WOGY. The Frog…
Earle “The Pearl” Augustus, WKSL ‘107-5 Kiss-FM’ Memphis | 1998
I met Earle Augustus while at then-Barnstable owned WJZN and WGKX, part of the Memphis Radio Group. Earle was on both WJZN and WRBO at the time and I was lucky that our paths crossed. Sometime in 2004, he finally gave me a cassette of himself upon my insistence. This is a quick demo scope…
Syd, 92.9 WMFS “93X” Memphis | October 10, 2005
In October of 2005, as your webmaster was preparing to leave Memphis (the first time), I wanted to record a snapshot of the market as it was at that time. It’s also nice knowing the people who you record :). Syd, as I recall, was the promotions director for 93X as well as the midday…
Kay Manley, WSRR 98.1 “The Cat” Memphis | September 28, 2004
Here’s one donated to the site way back in 2004 but just now posting. Contributor Kay Manley (WRVR, WSRR, WGKX) is featured here on her live afternoon show. The “Rockin’ Hits” ™ format was invented by Rich ‘Brother’ Robbin while in Nashville, and as part of it’s format overhaul, Citadel Broadcasting (Memphis Radio Group), upon…
Charles Allen, 56 WHBQ Memphis News | 1967
Looking back, for all the history that goes with WHBQ including the launch of Elvis’ career, the station that got Rick Dees noticed, etc., there’s really very little in the way of recorded audio left for us history buffs. Especially the 1960s. What does exist likely was recorded by the people that were there and…
Henry Nelson, 99.7 WMC-FM 100 Memphis | July, 1992
“…FM 100 Plays Memphis’ Best Music!” It’s been a long time since the CHR incarnation of “FM 100” was launched by Scott Shannon in 1982. Ten years later, WMC-FM had morphed into a more adult station. With it’s HotAC format firmly established, it was still an 80s-sounding hip station with a heritage jock lineup. Henry…
