AIRCHECK OF THE WEEK
For week of April 21, 2013
Edition #729

Talent: ROGER KELLY
Station: CKRC Winnipeg
Date: September 3, 1978
Time: 8:23

The end was near, but CKRC soldiered on.

This aircheck from Labour Day Weekend 1978 captures a pretty-hot sounding CKRC with Roger Kelly. The days of Top 40 would soon be over for the station branded as "The Best of The West" - the next year CKRC would go country. A decade-and-a-half later it would disappear altogether as CKRC moved to the FM dial as CFWM-FM in 1996 and shut down its AM transmitter forever.

Enjoy Roger Kelly on CKRC here.
