L, New York's leading R& B station. By the end of the decade Frankie became one of the "Good Guys" on WMCA, where he played Top 40. As listeners began the migration to FM, so did Frankie, where he launched a progressive R&B format, on the new 107.5 WBLS. This aircheck features Frankie Crocker, "The Chief Rocker" doing his thing on WBLS in the 1970s.

After over 40 years working on the radio, I have recorded lots of my own radio air checks of ME on the air, and many of my friends as well. You'll find audio of many radio personalities who have passed away, but have passed their audio to me to share here. You'll find radio airchecks from the 1940s, through the 1990s. We also talk about radio broadcasting. If you happen to have classic airchecks, maybe even of yourself on the air, we'd love to share it here!
If you are on the radio, or do voiceovers for You Tube videos, I have tips to make your radio show or video voiceovers better!
In addition to sharing audio from my 40 years in broadcasting, we also share videos about Travel & Cruising. I share tips on how I travel cheaply, so you can do it also!
***BTW, I edit all music out of airchecks to avoid music rights issues.***
