Sneak Preview; “Boss Radio” 93/KHJ Los Angeles | April 29, 1965
A piece of audio we’ve been sitting on for several years which came to us on a large reel, I thought it was time to dust this off and post. This runs 31 minutes, 30 seconds, and includes segments from Robert W. Morgan, Roger Christian and Gary Mack. You will find that a small segment…
93/KHJ Los Angeles: Sneak Preview | April 27-29, 1965
Here’s the one aircheck which documents the beginning of a legend. 93 KHJ. A station whose format, conceived and implemented by consultant Bill Drake, began a revolution in the way top 40 radio was presented. While other segments of this broadcast are available in other places on the web, we have not only the audio…
Charlie Van Dyke with Rick Dees on 93 KHJ Los Angeles | 1976
If you haven’t heard this aircheck before, you’re definitely in for a treat. Memphians know that Rick Dees was a huge star at WHBQ around the time of this aircheck. And if you think he was good there, put Dees in the same studio as Charlie Van Dyke and you have a trainwreck… or the…
The “Unknown DJ” on 93 KHJ Los Angeles | January 26, 1979
This mysterious aircheck is chock full of similarities and opposites. First off, compare the music playlist to another aircheck we have here from WKBW, from January 28, 1979. Nearly identical, except for the fact that KHJ is REALLY rockin’! Second, August 26, 1977, we have an aircheck of the Unknown DJ on WNBC… That guy…

Mucho Morales; Bobby Ocean, 93 KHJ Los Angeles | December, 1978
Thanks again to BigAppleAirchecks for another classc… KHJ at the end of 1978, was the poster child of liner card radio. Sure, the music is on target, but the jocks really had their hands tied and couldn’t really be themselves. The station’s slogan tells it all: 93/KHJ – The ALL MUSIC STATION. Not a terribly…
Rick Dees in the Morning, 93/KHJ Los Angeles | May 24, 1979
Courtesy of Matt @ BigAppleAirchecks is this classic episode of Rick Dees’ Morning Show on 93 KHJ. For those not familiar with Dees’ show, his was full of characters (played by Dees himself and his wife, who did the female characters) and zany phone calls. No wonder after his tenure at KHJ, he would go…
Charlie Van Dyke & Mark Elliot, 93/KHJ Los Angeles | June 18, 1976
Courtesy of BigAppleAirchecks, here’s a wonderful taste of 93/KHJ during the Charlie Van Dyke era. KHJ is full of excitement and personality oozes out of the very pores of this radio station. Outside of the Drake era, it really didn’t get much better than this for KHJ. The audio quality of this recording is nothing…
