Listening to this makes me wonder how I ever got hired. Coming from a laid back AOR (Album Oriented Rock) station I was definitely laid back, and using that signature affected 70's DJ voice. But,,, here is the first morning I was on the air at KCRG. Starting with the sign-on, National Anthem and all. (Remember when radio stations weren't on 24 hours a day? Ironically this particular recording of the National Anthem was the same one I used to listen to on my transistor radio in Marietta, Ohio when WMOA signed off, (I was probably about 13 years old) I then played it when I was the guy signing off WMOA... my first job in radio.) This includes an eclectic mix of songs played in their entirety. (Hit your snooze alarm now.) I remember the radio sales manager Red Rizor telling PD Ric Sellers that I'd be great if they could "light a fire" under me. (Listen to the next air check to hear the results some months later .)This ends with my production of a contest promo where I was trying to emulate the sound of "The Last Contest" with phasing and flanging the track while doing my best KCBQ impression. (Okay... trying to.) Listen to the later years at KCRG to hear my evolution.Copyrighted material appears under the Fair Use Doctrine.
