Jim O’Brien, Dan Donovan, 56 WFIL Philadelphia | January 24, 1977
Still technically a Top 40 station, WFIL has a one man morning show and plays everything – Some golden oldies thrown in which go back to the 60s, and lots of current hits, disco included. This is a wonderful glimpse of how WFIL sounded just before throwing in the towel and moving to an Adult…
The Real Don Steele, 1020 KTNQ Los Angeles | July 5, 1977
A world-premier aircheck that’s been sitting around the studio for a few years is this digitized copy of the original studio reel of “The Real” Don Steele on Ten-Q!

Hudson & Harrigan on KILT Houston | 1977
And now… the legendary Hudson and Harrigan! Plenty of excitement and fun on this legendary Top 40 powerhouse in the waning days of AM Top 40! This and the KRBE aircheck posted today came to us via an ‘anonymous’ contributor back around Christmastime 2004. Does this ring a bell – if you recorded this we’d…
Composite: 92.5 WIFI Philadelphia | January 24, 1977
Courtesy of Big Apple Airchecks… There’s not that many people who remember this AM-Top 40-styled FM hit music station. However, some may look back fondly at the station which has been Country 92.5 WXTU since August 1, 1983. 92.5 in Philadelphia started out as W57PH.

Greg Taylor, 1440 WQOK Greenville SC | 1977
There is a page dedicated to “A 25 Year Legend!”. Indeed, WQOK was a high rated Top 40 station, branded “Musicradio” during much of the late 70s, the “Super Q” during some years… no matter what the branding, WQOK was the favorite of many from the early 60s through the end of the 70s and…
Shotgun Cook & C.C. McCartney, 104.1 KRBE Houston | 1977
And now, some Mid-70s FM Top 40 Gold! KRBE has a long history doing Top-40/CHR in Houston – in fact, it’s still the hit music ratings leader! This features two jocks who were prominent in the late 70s during a time when KRBE’s format was a mix of Top-40 and hard Rock ‘hits’. You’ll hear…
Danny Day, 1490 KNOW Austin TX | 1977
New Contributor Dan Stolper sent in an original, perfect quality recording of a station that apparently has been gone from the Austin market for quite some time – we can find little information about it through any of our research tools. Perhaps one of our listeners can fill in the details of this former Top…
New York City Blackout – Radio Coverage | July 13, 1977 – Reloaded
July… Heat, Humidity, Hot Dogs… you know the drill. Often, especially in the Northeast, one of those cool fronts brings relief but they also bring trouble. This particular night in 1977 is remembered by nearly every New Yorker around back then. It started off as a miserably hot day, then a BIG storm front blew…
