Recreational Production, Exhibit Description and Expert ‘scoping by Contributor Scott Lowe
This is not exactly a real aircheck, but it is 100% authentic Wolfman Jack! When I was working at B104 in Allentown, PA. (2005) I found a file cabinet filled with reels of the syndicated “Graffiti Gold,” plus jingles and ID carts with custom Wolfman Jack liners for our sister station, 79 WAEB.
Just for fun, I thought it would be cool to assemble an hour of Graffiti Gold with the customized WAEB material. I was careful to match the tempo of the custom liners with the talk breaks on the reel and mixed the levels to make it sound as if he was really there.
From 1957 to 1983, WAEB-AM had a successful Top 40 format and continued with Adult Contemporary and Oldies formats through the mid 80’s.
