Bruce Bradley, 97.1 WYNY New York | Summer, 1980

97.1 FM New York 103.5 FM New York WYNY WQHT New York 97 Bruce Bradley Jack Welby WBZ 1030 AM Boston

One of our original contributors from way back in 2002, Alan Fletcher, included this on something he called “AM/FM Snippets”. There were two discs, as I recall and some tapes that he had sent also. This is an excerpt from the original Volume 1, featuring Bruce Bradley in AM drive. It’s from, I THINK, July of ’77 based upon the material surrounding this 8+ minute scope. You’ll also hear some news from Jack Welby, a longtime voice of the old “New York 97”.

The Late Bruce Bradley was probably best known for his on air work at WBZ Boston, first in the early 1960s during it’s Top 40 days, and then later, during the mid and late 80s after his time at WYNY. Bradley held down afternoons for quite a while in Boston and was a perfect fit there. We don’t have any airchecks of him at WBZ and if anyone has a recording, please contact us!



Bruce Bradley passed away on June 22, 2013 in Lake St. Louis, MO. You can read his Obituary HERE.
