“New Is…” Jingles, from Newsradio 88 WCBS New York | 1979
If you are a radio geek (and if you were not, you probably wouldn’t be here) you have probably had a radio jingle package get stuck in your head over the years. Normally it’s the CHR or Top 40 stations that tend to have the catchiest jingles. For many years I had the jingles for…

Dan Ingram’s 40th Anniversary, 101.1 WCBS-FM New York | July 7 2001
I can remember listening to Dan Ingram’s 20th anniversary on 77 WABC, back in July 1981. WABC really threw a party for Ingram. Lots of audio from Ingram’s past, Ingram shared stories from his career, and lots of guests dropping in. Among the guest, Howard Cosell and many of the jocks Big Dan worked with…

Chuck Leonard, 77 WABC New York | August 3, 1979
This aircheck goes back to the final few years of MusicRadio 77 WABC. We find a lively Chuck Leonard playing the hits of ’79. WABC seemed to play a lot of Disco music in 1979, but by the time of this aircheck in late summer 1979, the stations seems to be starting to play fewer…
