Time: 30:15

Description by Dan Haber

The jock's jock is doing weekends on Oldies 101 WCBS-FM New York, and he hasn't lost a bit of the talent that made him a huge hit all those years on WABC. All his regular stuff is here, including the Word of the Day, the Honour Group of the Day, his closing theme and some amazing one-liners. My favourite is the comment about the Eagles' hair, or lack of it, but there's much more on this terrific aircheck.

It was recorded when WCBS-FM was briefly uplinked as a subcarrier on a C-band subcarrier, which is why the quality is so phenomenal. It's also the last tape I ever edited using a grease pencil and a blade off the old reel-to-reel, It's now a lost art, but the scoped piece came out nearly perfect as a result.
