Chuck Brittain, 89 WLS Chicago | April 12, 1985
Chuck Brittain is heard during WLS’ celebration of 25 years as the “Rock of Chicago”, and while subtle format changes were soon to come, WLS is certainly still playing ALL THE HITS, even with a jingle that sings that phrase! WLS had fully embraced the Motorola C-Quam AM Stereo system and is proudly announcing that…
Larry Lujack; Tommy Edwards, 1690 WRLL Berwyn IL | October 9, 2003
Identified as their first day on the air, Ole “Uncle Lar” and Tommy Edwards are reunited for the first time since their days on 89 WLS. “Real Oldies” 1690 was an attempt to bring back many of the big names of the old MusicRadio 89 from the 1960s and pair them with a very old-skewing…

Bob Gray, 1320 WKTQ Pittsburgh | 1977
Contributor Rob Grayson is understandably proud to say he was part of Cecil Heftel’s WKTQ Pittsburgh. Known as 13Q, a Top 40 powerhouse created by Buzz Bennett, this station was a major force in the market through much of the 1970s. Here’s what the airstaff of 13Q looked like during the station’s golden years. (Courtesy…
Julie Williams, Ernie Brown; 790 KULF Houston | October 24, 1981
If its been 33 years since you heard this, you’re not alone and in good company! KULF sounds Bigtime, running a full service AM format and playing all the hits, minus the real hard rock stuff. This sounds NICE! And yes, it would have been nicer had this been a more crisp recording, but this…
Johnny Hayes, 101.1 KRTH Los Angeles “K-Earth 101” | September 17, 2001
Right in the shadow of 9/11, patriotism is at a 50 year high and Johnny Hayes starts out with comments about flags and buying American in two breaks in a row. One could hardly blame him, most of us felt the same way. And perhaps, thats the best part of this short scope of K-Earth…
The Return of Beaver Clever, 98.7 WXLO “99X” New York | June 9, 1979
Listen now as Beaver Clever throws himself into a high energy Top 40 radio show. Frankly, its amazing that 99X didn’t beat crosstown, cross-band WABC at its own game right here in ’79, but that distinction was reserved for “Disco 92”. You’ll notice that 99X leans slightly in a Rock direction while playing the Disco…
