Steve West, WGAM/WGHM Nashua/Manchester NH | June 10, 2023
I just started a new version of “The Time Machine” only two weeks prior to this aircheck on WGAM. The station is jockless the rest of the time and maintains a traditional Oldies format. Songs of the 1960s through the early 1980s.
The Real Bob James on The Time Machine – 66 WNBC New York | May 28, 1988
These airchecks keep popping up, seemingly out of nowhere. Given that the Airchexx curator has been doing WNBC Time Machine recreations for the past two years it’s little wonder. This gem comes from Bob Gilmore’s collection. This likely originated with former, now deceased, WNBC engineer Gary Blau, who made dozens of STEREO recordings from the…
HitOldies and Stereo 1230 WBLQ Present: The WNBC Time Machine! The Greatest Re-Creation Ever Done – All-New Performances!
The THIRD running of the WNBC Time Machine recreation was a sonic masterpiece! We took the original program from 66 WNBC New York, as envisioned by it’s creator, WNBC Program Director Dale Parsons (1985-1988) and brought it to the next level, while maintaining authenticity. Of course, it helped a lot that Dale participated on TWO…
Dan Taylor on the 66 WNBC Time Machine | April 16, 1988
Taylor was really on top of his game here. There’s a one-liner for every song…
Dale Parsons on the WNBC Time Machine | December 1987
By 1987, WNBC had figured out that the audience actually increased when the station started playing a regular diet of Oldies. What had started as an experiment earlier in 1987 by Big Jay Sorensen was given a green light to go semi-full time, Weekends and Overnights. The Time Machine, simply put, was a nearly perfect…
EJ (Joe) Crummey Produces and Co-Hosts the Wolfman Jack Show, 66 WNBC New York | February, 1986, Part 2
Here’s PART 2 in our series of AM-Stereo airchecks. WNBC used the Khan-Hazeltine AM Stereo system and while the transmitting plant itself was finely tuned and well-processed by NBC’s top-notch engineers, heard on a (then) modern, wideband AM Stereo receiver, this sounds BETTER than modern processed FM stations!
EJ (Joe) Crummey Produces and Co-Hosts the Wolfman Jack Show, 66 WNBC New York | February, 1986, Part 1
Listen to how Crummey’s banter and production skills make this show sound 100% live, local and relevant. This is quite amazing, especially when one realizes that in the mid-1980s, computer automation was still more than a decade away, and producing a show such as this required precision timing, quick thinking and a lot of cart…
Big Jay Sorensen, The Time Machine, 66 WNBC New York | September, 1988
Here’s the first in a large series of Time Machine airchecks from the late 66 (AM) WNBC New York.
