… Hit after hit after hit – the new KCPX 99 …
[Description by Uncle Ricky, contributed by Mike Miles]
Ron Hart closes out his show and introduces Randy Lundquist in
this FM stereo exhibit from (best guess) January, 1984. It’s 20 degrees in Salt Lake City and this would be a near-perfect recording except for stereo alignment errors that were very difficult to correct.
Like our first KCPX aircheck, we are delighted with the JAM jingles, some of the same as those in use at KKHR in Los Angeles. There’s reverb on the mic only, but I consider this a mistake. It should be on the entire program chain if you’re gonna use it at all.
The jocks apparently have been told to speak briefly – because there is absolutely no idle chatter here. However, the format gets high marks because they identify the station, one way or another, before every song. Ah, those were the days, when the iPod format had not yet become mandatory.
