HELLO GREAT AIRCHECK A CO WORKER

KLIF ROCK IN PEACE MIKE SELDEN A CO DJ❤💯💯💢💢💢

OLD KLIF 50,000watts SOUTH SIGNAL TO MEXICO

Crank up the positive modulation level until the tower base insulator arcs over, then back off just a little!

Thank you. This song ruled the jukebox when I was the DJ at Tiffany Pub in Palisades Park NJ. People did not believe it even existed!

Wow! Can you share any more McLendon? I understand he re-created an 1886 Baseball game. Thank you for this amazing clip of The Old Scotchman.

The report mentioning Clint Hill saying " he is dead" was on the ABC radio more than a half-hour before Cronkite announced it to the nation.

The day before JFK 10.

WORKED WITH SELDEN AT KNUS IN DALLAS 1978-1979. ONE OF THE ABSOLUTE BEST. LOVED HIS PROGRAM END PLAYING LOONEY TUNES. MY CELLPHONE RINGER IS THAT. UNFORTUNATELY, IT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE PORKY PIG "THAT'S ALL, FOLKS". TODAY, THAT PROBABLY WOULD BE CONSIDERED MOCKING PEOPLE WHO STUTTER.

I WORKED WITH MICHAEL SELDEN AT KNUS IN DALLAS 1978-1979 . WAS SADDENED TO HEAR THAT SELDEN DIED AT AGE 56.

I'm looking for the KVIL jingles that my wrote back in the early 1980s with TM (Jim KirK). Hopefully, somebody can point me in the right direction. I've gone through his old tapes, but cannot seem to find any of the KVIL stuff. Thanks!

I really appreciate this because I was listening to to KLIF a lot starting in 1972. 1973 had the best music ever. What an amazing time. I have great memories of listening to all the DJs. Thank you for sharing this.

KVIL was the hottest media,more than local tv stations. It was non-stop 24/7. They didn't go to sone syndicated radio show overnight, like all stations do today. They kept it all local. It was all Dallas, Ft. Worth meteoplex on the airwaves.

0:20 this is the very first time I saw what the set looks in color

Awesome!!!

Super Bowl VI was the last Cowboys game broadcast on KLIF. For the 1972 season, KRLD took over the radio rights.

Amazing bit of broadcast history. Thanks for sharing.

WHERES CAT SIMON💋

21:16 Indeed "it's a shame what's happened to radio, but they can't afford to do it any more (do it any more)". Sadly, a prophetic jingle.

I met him this morning, he's doing well and still working just not in the Radio business anymore.

He favors Clarence White from the byrds

This was fun to hear.

And? So?

ABC's Bob Clark was present at both JFK and RFK's assassinations.

I can't remember the source, but I read where this was the first news about the President being shot, TV or radio.

This Is Actually Recorded On December 5, 1959.

RSWX

The Apollo mission referenced in the brief news clip had to be Apollo 15 (July 26, 1971 - August 7, 1971) which again helps pinpoint the date.

It's hard to believe KLIF gave winners and accident victim addresses on the air back then. Such an innocent era.

These pictures of Mike in the KLIF studio are fascinating and educational. I always thought that the jock faced the window at the "end" of the building (the one looking out over Cesar Chavez Blvd.). But it was the opposite; the jock had his back to that window.

58 years ago this November!

Can NEVER forget the events of that day!

KVIL was the best station in Dallas/Fort Worth for a long time.

John Borders had a smile to his voice. As he speaks I imagine he is smiling. I often hear the term but now I finally get to hear someone who had a "smile to his voice." KLIF was lucky to have him.

I believe the song in the beginning is Doris Day - Hooray for Hollywood from 1958

This is a great blast from the past. I'm a little puzzled as to why they kept that "old fashioned" jingle package & they played Top 40 music? Thanks for posting it.
