DRC-FM, playing EVERYBODY’s Hit Music!

Comments:

Well, here’s an interesting aircheck. This is from a period of time in 1983 when both DRC-FM and TIC-FM used a very similar approach to their respective Top 40 formats. As a listener, I preferred DRC-FM, partly because I could rarely pick up TIC, and partly because it seemed that DRC-FM let their jocks talk a bit more. Whatever the reasoning, this is a great aircheck! Just under 5 minutes in length and a bit processed in house because the source cassette played at slightly the wrong speed and sounded a bit gurgly… still does to a point, but these bits of hit songs will certainly bring you back, including an incredibly RARE hit from Huey Lewis and the News called “I Hope You Love Me Like You Say You Do”!! A ‘WOW’ moment if ever there was one!
