NYC 80’s CHR Wars: Bill O’Brien on WHTZ
The late 80s and early 90s saw one of the hottest competitions among the hit music stations in New York City history. The last time there were this many stations locked in battle for the top 40 audience was the early 1960s when it was on the AM band between WMGM, WMCA and WABC. But,…
Chip Binder, 1220 WGAR Cleveland | 1979
This was emailed in a few weeks ago from Joy Binder! Chip Binder did overnights for a time on WGAR, but frankly, he’s so good I would have thought he was doing morning drive! Here’s “Musicradio 1220” in fine late-70s form, complete with reverb (just a touch) and a set of JAM WABC jingles to…
Dick Summer, WBZ 1030 Boston | August, 1964
Often times, we obtain an aircheck and then the person featured sends in a better copy. Such was the case with this. The original copy was sent in way back in the first year of this website’s existence. Then Dick Summer himself sent this much better quality recording in a few years later. So, here…
Willie B. Goode, 95.5 WPLJ New York | October 10, 1986
Power 95 is solidly CHR, but not yet Mojo Radio. The jingles will remind you that 95.5 was once WABC-FM, and looking back listening to this, its obvious that ABC was in some way trying to re-create the MusicRadio 77 magic on FM. At least to some small degree. Willie B is heard on part…

Boston FM Composite: 1983
Here’s a quarter hour worth listening to. Starting with the great Joe Martelle, on the old 98.5 WROR, this goes back and forth between WROR and 103.3 WEEI-FM. Just two years before this was recorded, WROR had just morphed into a soft, personality AC from its days of automated Oldies. The fun part of this…
MicroChexx: Joe Hager, 1300 WAVZ New Haven | November, 1972
It took longer to write this summary than edit the audio for this slightly under one minute clip of Joe Hager on the “New Waves”. Courtesy of early Airchexx Contributor Andy Bologovsky, here’s another short look and listen to one of America’s great middle-market stations with a huge Major Market sound! WAVZ was one of…
Composite (Part 2): 610 KFRC San Francisco | May 18, 1982
A long time ago, we posted a large composite of KFRC from May 1982 including a nice segment with Broadway Bill Lee (he didn’t use ‘Broadway’ in San Fran of course). Here’s part 2 of that composite, which features morning funny man Dr. Don Rose (and some very interesting news segments partly included), and Harry…
