As recordings go, one probably couldn’t get better than vynl. Programmer’s Digest was one of those trade publications that featured a different station each edition, and was sent out to various radio stations on a 33 1/3 LP. Featured on this edition, a composite of 13 WAVES and an entire day’s broadcast.
This starts with a fantastic WAVZ contest promo, then it’s on to the Programmer’s Digest. Its a tribute to Program Director John Long’s genius and includes a ton of promos and special WAVZ contests.

All Hail The ‘Ol Skip: John Long. He rescued me from a bad situation in Miami, brought me to WAVZ, put Paul Drew’s ears on my work and orchestrated my move to KHJ. Couple of years later he made significant contributions to B100 San Diego when I signed it on in 1975. He also hired a topless hooker to dance in the control room for my last show on New Waves 13. So–yeah, I love that guy.
Love Programmers’ Digest LP’s. Try to hear as many of them as I can. Thanks.
