Walt Baby Love, 98.7 WXLO New York | May 17, 1974
Walt Baby Love is BACK! Literally – Here’s 30 minutes of 99X, RKO General’s Q format, New York FM style on a station known and loved for generations after its heyday. Do you know that Elton John was once a DJ on 99X? Its true! In the Summer of 1975, Sir Elton was a guest…
1010 WINS New York Reports on the Passing of Stan Brooks | December 24, 2013
“You Give Us 22 Minutes, We’ll Give You The World” That slogan, and the All-News format as we know it today owes its beginnings to the late Stan Brooks. Stan was the News Director in 1965 when WINS parent company, Westinghouse Broadcasting, approached him about building a 24 hour news format. At that time, WINS…
Bill Brown, 101.1 WCBS-FM New York | December 22, 1988
Bill Brown began his tenure at the Golden 101 in 1969 and stayed with CBS-FM for 36 years! He was displaced in 2005, when the station ditched Oldies for the failed “Jack-FM” Variety Hits format which lasted just under two years. Brown only goes by his first name, Bill. His is a warm personality, with…
Batt Johnson, WRVR/WKHK Country 106.7 New York | Undated
Originally posted on 10/15/04 in Real Audio format. No date given on this one. Batt Johnson (WNBC, WYNY) is heard on the Country incarnation of 106.7 under the WRVR, then WKHK calls. This is a very AC/MOR sounding Country format. Unable to penetrate the New York City market dominated by rival 1050 WHN, 106.7 would…
Murray The K, 1010 WINS New York | March 17, 1961
Here’s something given to us a few years ago by Contributor Ray Bozzanca, recorded onto one of his reels. The audio quality is not that good but the historical value certainly IS! Listen for old Dodge car commercials, pimple cream commercials… lots of live ads, live promotions of Murray the K’s upcoming live appearance on…
Dick Bartley, “Saturday Night Classic Countdown”; 101.1 WCBS-FM New York | February 13, 2011
Contributor Scott Lowe gave us this perfect recording of Dick Bartley’s “Classic Countdown” on CBS-FM. One of the really cool features of this is the fact that Bartley did this show for CBS-FM, and it’s not some syndicated show that he did generically. But, Dick Bartley is… himself. He comes across professional, if not just…
QuickChexx: Bill Lee, 103.5 WAPP “Hot 103” Lake Success NY | July 29, 1985
New Contributor Marty Glenn Siegel has been waiting a few years for this to post. Its an excellent one, too! Broadway Bill Lee (WTIC-FM, KFRC, WLOL, WCBS-FM) mentions he’ll be going back to Minneapolis after his show, so one has to wonder if this was an audition or just a visit. It’s mighty good to…
Don Reegan, 98.7 WXLO New York | November, 1972
October 23, 1972 may not stand out as anything memorable. Its not a day that lives in infamy. It’s someone’s birthday out there, for sure (Happy birthday, to whomever this concerns!). In our case, it is the date we’ve been searching for. On 10/23/72, RKO General changed the call letters of its New York radio…
