Dick Heatherton, 101.1 WCBS-FM New York | July 29, 1974

101.1 FM New York, WCBS-FM
New York's OLDIES Station - 101 CBS-FM!

Courtesy of Big Apple Airchecks, here’s an original tape which took quite a bit of time to re-master. Dick Heatherton is upbeat and fun, and the music spans three decades! At this point in the ‘Golden 101″ era, CBS-FM is playing everything from the 1950s to then-current songs, with an emphasis on late-50s and early 60s music. Interestingly enough, CBS-FM plays enough current music to do a music survey!

The historic nature of this aircheck becomes readily apparent as soon as the first newscast, read by Bill Gillian, begins. President Richard Nixon has announced he will resign at noon the following day, and he will hold a news conference shortly to tell the American people of his plans to resign. That news conference may just be one of the most famous presidential news conferences in history, unfortunately, while WCBS-FM did carry it live, the news conference took place after this aircheck is over.

Its another ORIGINAL aircheck which you’ll find nowhere else except right here, at Airchexx.com!



Aircheck #1,371 since May 2, 2002!
