Bobby McGee, WTIC-FM Hartford | 1978
…it’s so hot today, I saw a chicken plucking itself “Hitman” Bobby McGee…. did he work at any other New England radio stations? Well, no matter. Here’s another great Hot Hits! ™ jock who fit in perfectly with Mike Josephs’ Hartford format affiliate! Know any La-Hues? Tell em to call TIC-FM to win! (Okay, you…
Lee Roberts, WTIC-FM Hartford | 1978 #2
More Lee Roberts, who was a staple of the early Hot Hits! ™ sound of WTIC-FM in the late 70s. You’ll love the music, but it’s the formatics that always got me! And the most unique set of jingles (made, of course, by TM Century) heard anywhere! Thanks again to Steve McVie, who has amassed…
Lee Roberts, WTIC-FM “96 TICS” Hartford | 1978
Thanks to Steve McVie out on Cape Cod, one of my all-time favorite stations. Mike Josephs “Hot Hits” ™ formatted CHR WTIC-FM. There are a number of “Hot Hits” stations profiled here and at other web sites, but none quite capture the engergy and creativity of TIC-FM. Prior to flipping to Top 40 in 1977,…
Jackson Armstrong, 66 WNBC New York | 1978
A long time ago, this was featured in Real Audio form. And now, just to return to the fun, Jackson Armstrong returns with the Gorilla to do this one gig at WNBC New York. What do you say about a guy who managed to throw more excitement into a four hour shift than half the…
Glenn Morgan on WXLO 99X New York | March 1, 1978
Big thanks to “Magic” Matt at Big Apple Airchecks for some pristine audio of 99X! This is from the end of the best era (IMHO) of WXLO in the days of Disco music and a very heated competition between 99X and crosstown, cross-band 77 WABC. Glenn Morgan Is certainly one of the more subdued jocks…
Tom Ambrose on WCCO-FM Minneapolis/St. Paul | 1978
Another from the archives. 103 FM WCCO FM – this is a very laid-back aircheck, reminiscent of the old Soft Rock 103 WEEI-FM in Boston. If anyone knows the history behind this station, leave a comment below. Click the above graphic to listen. Real Player Required.
Charlie Fox, 64 KFI Los Angeles | December 25, 1978
Back in ’78, Charlie Fox was heard on the legendary 64 KFI. And, for a guy who isn’t exactly considered a legend himself, unlike his contemporaries, he sounds pretty darn good here. KFI is TIGHT! Nothing sloppy about this presentation! KFI in the 70s was essentially put together by PD John Rook – a legend…
Chuck Leonard, 77 WABC New York | August 31, 1978
Here’s an hour long treat for WABC Music Radio 77 fans! I’ve no idea how this was recorded but it sounds suspiciously like it was taken right off the WABC studio console. The audio quality is the best I’ve ever heard! Sped up records (well, carts, as WABC had all carted music by 1978), lots…
