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…
WYHY Y-107 Nashville gets featured on 48 Hours | 1989
Sometime in the late 1980’s, the evening news program ’48 Hours’ did a segment on top 40 radio. Or, should I say, outrageous radio. Y-107 was so outrageous, it was prominently featured as a classic example of ‘sinful’ lifestyle (yes, Jerry Falwell was shown preaching against it.). This is priceless, if only to showcase just…
Loren Owens on KIMN “Denver 95” | April 2, 1979
Here’s the longtime host of the current “Loren and Wally” morning show in Boston, at his prior gig in Denver. Owens has this really dry sense of humor that is evident in parts of this aircheck showcasing his morning show on KIMN. Morning shows were quite different back in ’79, just one guy doing a…
Steve Casey, 1440 WROK Rockford IL | January, 1979
Here’s a second helping of Contributor Steve Bleecker’s own show in Rockford Illinois. Yes, 1979 was a great year for music and we’re really impressed by the big sound that WROK has. Jingles on this station were mainly from JAM Creative Productions’ “Positron” package during 1979. The station’s processing was obviously top notch (kudos to…
“Rockin’” Ron Kay, KOBO “K145” Yuba City, CA | 1975
You may never have heard of Ron Kay or KOBO, but this is FANTASTIC! Here’s an AM Top 40 station that plays everything from Led Zeppelin to Disco. Ron Kay is a GREAT personality, he’s funny and while he didn’t send in a description for this composite, perhaps we don’t really need one. Apparently KOBO…
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…
Steve Bleecker, 1460 WAXC Rochester | Fall, 1977
The WAXC call letters in Rochester NY have been gone for so long they don’t even show up in the FCC’s historical database. Too bad, for a station that sounded this good. We’re in 1977 and Contributor Steve Bleecker sent this in of himself, playing the hits on a cool Autumn day. Listen and be…
