Composite: KOMA 1520 Oklahoma City | 1966
Every now and then it’s time to go way back, to before the days when FM was in vogue when AM was king of the hill, and disc jockeys puked their way to the top. They also ripped off each other’s names in different markets. This starts out with the Charlie Tuna show. Now, is…
Composite: 79 WQXI Atlanta | September 1966
It’s old but it’s a great cross section of talent, some of whom include Dr. Don Rose (KFRC) and Tony Taylor (WOR-FM)! This is mid-60s WQXI, with lots of reverb, cheesy pop tunes and tons of PAMS jingles! Since we’ve become the de-facto WQXI historical site (WQXI is our most popular station according to stats),…
Boss Radio Birthday Bash; 93 KHJ Los Angeles
Contributor Allen Beebe (WNBC/KNFX/KODE/KGBC/KNOE/KMJC) sent this in on the occasion of the passing of legendary KHJ Los Angeles producer Bill Mouzis, who passed away on January 12, 2013 at the age of 90. The L.A. Observed posted a wonderful obituary for Mouzis which you can read HERE. Sometimes the road to Airchexx is long and…
Dave (and Greg) Scott, 14 KQV Pittsburgh | August 1, 1966
This is an interesting aircheck in the respect that DJ Dave (corrected) Scott promotes that his son Greg is going on – and does in this 16 minute scope of mid-60s “Audio KQV”. KQV is a unique radio station from a number of different standpoints. First, it is still known by the only set of…
Jim Runyon, WCFL Chicago | August, 1966
The Chicago Federation of Labor station, as heard during the Summer of 1966. The jock is Jim Runyon – he’s got a smooth voice, and the advertisements feature smooth ladies’ voices! At least, the one for “Compoz” does. You’ll hear five minutes of scoped Jim Runyon, then a minute of WCFL News headlines before its…
The Howard Clark Show, 610 KFRC San Francisco | November 25, 1966
It seems like it was ALWAYS Para Camero time at KFRC in the 60s. Here’s the Big 610 on Thanksgiving Day playing the All-Time Top 300. Its amazing to hear the Drake sound once again… with Bill Drake voicing a dry Top Hour Legal ID. There was no reverb on KFRC, but the station was…
“Tiger” Bob Raleigh, 1580 WPGC Morningside (MD) | August 30, 1966
Courtesy of Contributor Frank Davis, here’s a rare recording of Tiger Bob Raleigh during the ‘Good Guys Radio’ era at WPGC. This station was an AM / FM simulcast even in the ’60s, and there’s even a promo about two thirds of the way through this scoped aircheck prompting listeners to purchase an FM radio…
