When i first received my first radio in the early 70's , a small transistor AM only, I listened to 77 am WABC, it had music that sounded ok, but those jingles will forever remain in my memory coming from that small speaker.
Glad you included WPLJ. I lived in New Jersey for three years, 1983-1986 and attended Fairleigh Dickinson University in Teaneck. I would listen to WPLJ almost exclusively because: (1) They had a *truly funny* morning show with Jim Kerr and the "Morning Crew;" and (2) They were the station in New York City that carried "American Top 40" with Casey Kasem every Sunday morning (before January 1984, "AT 40" was on WNBC). I also listened to "Z-100," WYNY, and WPIX-FM ("Nothing but love songs").
Cool! This would be an excellent to do a chipmunked or kid versions of the NYC radio jingles. This would be a lot of fun. Gotta love those CBS-FM jingles too.
as I was saying, for that short time when CBS FM was off the air and Jack took it over, a bad time for new yorkers, but, however, in 2008, at 1:01 PM, WCBS, "oldies 101" was revived!
I love it I'm a great JINGLE COLLECTOR (and also a great record collector) in section : dance, funk, jazz, electro, r&b, but also pop, rock, and many other things
I've always wondered why, when commercial radio station call letters were first assigned in the 1920s, why the east part of the USA - where the most radio stations were in the world, for decades - was given the only letter in the alphabet which isn't just one syllable. This meant that all these stations had the most cumbersome letter to have to say. Of course, this was way before any jingles like these were invented.
I believe that Dan Alexander did the sonovox for most of the PAMS jingles back in the 60's. I just found out that Dan passed away almost 2 years ago. Look for some of the PAMS/JAM jingle sessions on here. you will see Dan. He's a burly bear type guy.
did that for few stations, "serving wisconsin" did they ever do "serving los angeles?" the rest I know was serving the universe just heard that while on jeremy richardsons amazing jingle site! was for KKRD wichita, and b104 baltimore! although they did that in warp factor, my favorites were "waking up virginia, and serving dublin" oops, forgot "canada's greatest city!"

I remember 77 WABC doing something called "instant replay" ...it was a "shout" and then they'd play the same song again. Vintage 60's!

Thanks for posting the WAYV jingle. I remember Bob Patrick so well, you should put some monmouth/ocean stuff as well if you find any in another video.

Wow, WAYV really channeled Radio Caroline with their jingles.
WAYV was a former adult contemporary station in Atlantic City .
did that for few stations, "serving wisconsin" did they ever do "serving los angeles?" the rest I know was serving the universe just heard that while on jeremy richardsons amazing jingle site! was for KKRD wichita, and b104 baltimore! although they did that in warp factor, my favorites were "waking up virginia, and serving dublin" oops, forgot "canada's greatest city!"
Nice work. Great editing job (audio and video)!
JAMS did the jingles for WABC during 1974-1975 .
Great job chuck, Bob Patrick was a cool guy. Have a coworker that's from new york, lisened to WABC and WCBS, did you know it's back on the air?
PAMS did the jingles for Musicradio 77 WABC.
Z100 WHTZ formerly MOR station WVNJ FM Stereo 100 with a Newark, N.J. address before 1983 .
The WABC one at 0:44 is real cool.
past the 0:30 mark - who did that WABC "You're Hearing Things" news theme? I love that newsy sound.
Every station,except WJRZ Radio 97!
well, thanks to online tech, they now are "serving the universe"
Cool! like it!
My favorite is the WNBC one at 3:45
F Bob Patrick? That doesn't seem very nice.
He's a class guy.
Sonovox Jingles .
Nope for serving LA, nothing close to the
Z100 package
66 wnbc is where howard stern worked.
it should have been 666 huh?
@hebneh see wikipedia on call signs
no "WMCA yeah yeah" ? Good job otherwise
