“Skinny” Tom Chauney, WTIX “The Mighty 690” New Orleans | October 16, 1972

The music is true Top 40, and it's all over the place from obscure (by today's standards) slow tunes to hard rock. But, this is how Top 40 sounded at what, arguably, was the peak of AM Top 40 radio.

Dan Taylor on the Time Machine, 66 WNBC New York | 1988

There's probably never been a jock more suited to be on WABC around 1968-72 than Dan Taylor. Except that DT was a pre-teen in those years and even if he wasn't too young, he would have been mistaken as Dan Ingram's clone...

Glenn Colligan & Scott Mason, 1150 WMEX Boston | Sometime, 1986

You'll hear two very capable jocks here. Glenn Holligan is the jock holding down the show from the WMEX studios and Scott Mason is broadcasting on-location from Hallissy Chevrolet in Lowell.

Big Jay Sorensen & The WNBC Time Machine | October 6, 1988

This includes just about every element that listeners loved about the Time Machine. The great music of the 60s, a GREAT jock (actually, THE jock who invented the Time Machine format), lots of interaction with listeners - phone bits are everywhere, and Big Jay's "Record Pig" segment. You just have to listen to understand it.
