Jack Murphy & Terry Knight, 107.5 WKZL Winston/Salem (Greensboro) NC | 1997
Tape was rolling this particular day as KZL aired The Best Of Murphy In The Morning. Except, Jack Murphy and Terry Knight are actually THERE, playing the best-of clips LIVE. Much of this features a contest of some sort where the audience calls in, and ad-libs to another guy who called in and is playing…
Johnny Edwards, WLKQ 102.3 Buford, GA | 1997
Just a few breaks of Johnny Edwards grace this micro-short aircheck of “Lake 102” from the Atlanta market. Contributed by Jay Sawyer, this good quality aircheck showcases a decent sounding gold-based format, of which we’d like to hear more of. Today, WLKQ is Spanish, known as “La Raza 102.3/100.1” Aircheck #1,366 since May 2, 2002!…
Ed Thomas, 102.5 WSKS Utica | 1997
“Real Power, Real People, Real Music, Real Life, Continuous Music, Kiss-102“ The first jock, heard through most of this short scope, doesn’t mention his name, but he does say that Ed Thomas is coming up, with passes to Great Escape in Lake George, NY. We couldn’t nail down the date of this, either, but the…
WCBS-FM 25th Anniversary with Bob Shannon | July 7, 1997
WCBS-FM held a special event for their 25th anniversary. This is the first incarnation of CBS-FM’s Oldies format, with lots of songs from the dawn of Rock ‘n Roll up through the very early 1980s. The on-air celebration included old airchecks from the station’s relatively humble beginnings through much of the late 70s. This particular…
Broadway Bill Lee, 103.5 WKTU New York | May 30, 1997
New Contributor Cecelia Taylor-Hunt sent in over 90 minutes of Bill Lee on “The Beat of New York”. Before you say, ‘this isn’t top 40’, you really must listen. 103-5 KTU is doing some killer promotions around this time, and remember, this was 1997, and all the consolidation which ruined even the big stations hadn’t…
Sample: 99.5 WGAY (Silver Spring, MD) Washington DC | July 4, 1997
A crystal clear recording is what we’re treated to on the old Soft Rock station at 99.5 FM. One would think that since 1997 was just yesterday (wasn’t it?) that one of the old WGAY logos would be out there somewhere, but multiple searches in different engines come up with the current CHR station, “Hot…
Rob Collins/McEnzie Clark, 105.7 WZNY “Y105” Augusta, GA | 1997
Here’s a station that holds the airchexx.com record of a station with the most call letters in it’s history. Oh sure, there are undoubtedly other stations in North America which have had more sets of call letters, but none are featured here. Today’s WSCG “G-105.7” is a Country station. It went on the air in…
Mike Hotaling, WQBK Albany” 103-5/103-9 The Edge” – November 2, 1997
Mike Hotaling submitted this self-airchecks, saying he just found it after all this time. One of Mike’s final shows on The Edge and it sounds really good! Hotaliing explained that the station was sold and after the sale, The Edge fire most of the airstaff and wound up being a satellite feed. Before long the…
