QuickChexx: Ross & Wilson, 77 WABC New York | 1982
New Contributor Ellis Feaster presents this very short bit from Ross & Wilson at the tail end of the music era at WABC. Just ONE break from these guys, but you do get an idea of what WABC sounded like just before going News/Talk. Not much we can say about this one… one break from…
Scott Shannon’s Final Show, “Scott & Todd in the Morning”, 95.5 WPLJ New York | February 7, 2014
There was a time when WPLJ was still playing Album Rock and a sleepy Beautiful Music station at 100.3 brought the airwaves of New York alive. Z-100 was born out of the creativity that Scott Shannon brought to New York, and ever since that day in 1983, he never stopped to smell the roses. After…
Beaver Cleaver, 98.7 WXLO New York | June 1, 1978
Courtesy of Big Apple Airchecks, here’s a fun aircheck of a night Beaver Cleaver (KFMB-FM, KTNQ) came to New York City, probably upon the insistence of someone at RKO General, and did the first of many appearances at 99X! We’re not sure how many times Cleaver was on WXLO, but we do have another aircheck…
Composite: 98.7 WXLO New York | 1978
Pure heaven is probably the only way to describe this nearly one-hour long scoped composite featuring the talents of Bobby Rich (Bobby’s B-100), who here is in for Al Bandiero, Sue O’Neal, Bobby Messina and more! Courtesy of Big Apple Airchecks, this was donated to our site nearly 10 years ago and finally is finding…
Lee Roberts, 98.7 WXLO New York | December 17, 1977
Lee Roberts is showcased here as one of the “X-Men” on the old 99X. Notice the amount of Disco music in rotation here! Perhaps it was not enough, or too much, but less than a year after this aircheck was recorded, 92.3 WKTU would become the number one radio station in New York City, knocking…
Harry Nelson, 98.7 WXLO New York | December, 1977
Active on Facebook (so you can contact him), Nelson has been in radio for a very long time. Much of it was with RKO-General’s chain of radio stations. His resume includes radio stations like WRKO Boston, KFRC San Francisco, WJBQ Portland Maine, WROR Boston, and even a stay at WXLO “99X” New York! As heard…
Quickcheck: Sue O’Neil, WXLO 99X New York | Winter 1978
From contributor Brian Redman – a reasonably hi-fi recording of Sue O’Neil on 99X. We’re not sure of the date but considering there’s ice and snow its a safe bet that we’re talking about the Winter of ’78. At a whole 58 SECONDS long, this is the shortest aircheck on our site! This starts with…
Steve O’Brien, 101.1 WCBS-FM New York | October, 1999
Courtesy of Big Apple Airchecks, here’s a high-quality aircheck of our good friend Steve O’Brien, apparently recorded right after the New York Yankees won the World Series of Baseball. The century is winding down, its a balmy day (near 70 degrees) in the Big Apple, and WCBS-FM is still New York’s OLDIES station, playing the…
