Walt Baby Love on WXLO 99X New York | May 17, 1974

Always known for it’s high-energy jocks, 99X is featured here with Walt Baby Love, one of the station’s best remembered and most loved personalities. This is 1974 and RKO General has all of it’s stations wound up as tight as ever, but it’s in New York City where the big FM experiment is going full-tilt.

It’s hard to fathom why the one pioneering FM station in Gotham, the ONLY FM to really seriously challenge WABC for Top 40 ratings until about 1979 ended up a relic which changed to an Urban station in the early 80s, but one thing is certain… this slice of 99X will capture your attention for 3 of your precious quarter hours – and that’s better than most stations today can claim.
