Bob Dayton, 101.1 WCBS-FM New York | 1978
It’s been a while since we posted a new WCBS-FM aircheck, and we think this one will delight longtime fans of the ‘Golden 101’! This goes back to 1978. Bob Dayton (WABC, KBLA) sounds warm and personable, and CBS-FM is playing all the great songs from the 50s, 60s and early 70s. This is the…
Legacy of KFRC: The Top 40 Years – 1966-1986
Contributor Ron Hummel sent in a wonderful documentary narrated by the great Bobby Ocean which chronicles the Big 610 from its humble beginnings out of the sleepy Don Lee era through the final days as a Top 40 station. While the original disc was inclusive 1966 to 1991, KFRC 610 was only Top 40 until…
Steve Dahl & Company, WDAI FM 94.7 Chicago | 1978
“The traps are set…” Courtesy of Contributor J. R. Russ, we have the first Steve “Disco Destruction” Dahl aircheck, and no it is nothing to do with disco destruction but that’s what Dahl is best known for. I suppose the theme for this somewhat short scope is the Mousketeers. The traps… cheese for the mouse.…
QuickChexx: Terry Nelson, 64 KFI Los Angeles – DX Reception | 1978
Contributor J. R. Russ sent this in quite a while ago and while it was labelled ‘1976’, obviously the music zooms us in on 1978. This is not the typical aircheck you’d normally hear on this website. It was recorded a long distance from Los Angeles, and I really can’t tell you where from, but…
Composite: 98.7 WXLO 99X New York | September 1977 – Spring 1978
“99X – Rockin’ the Apple in Stereo!” Courtesy of Big Apple Airchecks, here’s a new Composite of New York’s legendary 99X! This spans the Fall 1977 – Spring 1978 time frame and includes some great personalities like Glen Morgan, The “Sainte” Show, Dick Sloan and others. This is another tightly scoped aircheck that came to…
Beaver Cleaver, 98.7 WXLO New York | June 1, 1978
Courtesy of Big Apple Airchecks, here’s a fun aircheck of a night Beaver Cleaver (KFMB-FM, KTNQ) came to New York City, probably upon the insistence of someone at RKO General, and did the first of many appearances at 99X! We’re not sure how many times Cleaver was on WXLO, but we do have another aircheck…
Composite: 98.7 WXLO New York | 1978
Pure heaven is probably the only way to describe this nearly one-hour long scoped composite featuring the talents of Bobby Rich (Bobby’s B-100), who here is in for Al Bandiero, Sue O’Neal, Bobby Messina and more! Courtesy of Big Apple Airchecks, this was donated to our site nearly 10 years ago and finally is finding…
Quickcheck: Sue O’Neil, WXLO 99X New York | Winter 1978
From contributor Brian Redman – a reasonably hi-fi recording of Sue O’Neil on 99X. We’re not sure of the date but considering there’s ice and snow its a safe bet that we’re talking about the Winter of ’78. At a whole 58 SECONDS long, this is the shortest aircheck on our site! This starts with…
