AIRCHECK OF THE WEEK

Edition #1310
Week of August 25, 2024
 


Talent: STEVE ELLIOTT
Station: CHUM Toronto
Date: August 28, 1976
Time: 59:03 (Pt. 2 - unscoped)
               14:26 (Pt. 2 - scoped)

It's Steve Elliott's last show on CHUM and he goes out in style.

After a rousing send-off by Pat Riley, Elliott gives his listeners a show to remember him by, with a non-stop energetic performance despite the late hour. Luckily his entire show - the first of five parts - has survived and you can hear the first hour below.

Elliot cut his teeth at CKCY Sault Ste. Marie in the early '70s, went to CHUM, then embarked on a four-decade career in radio and TV in the Canadian west as Terry Reid. His radio stops included CKLG, CKKS-FM and CHQM-FM Vancouver and CISF-FM Surrey, B.C.

Reid/Elliott has also been heard as the commercial announcer for Global TV Vancouver, and imaging/commercial announcer at CTV/BellMedia Alberta. His list of credits include president of Voicewerks.
