Classic WFAN Jingles

Here's a tribute to the golden era of WFAN, before the days of 101.9 and FM broadcasting. Just when it was good old 660 AM and 50,000 Watts. Imus was still on the air, Mike and the Mad Dog, and the Mets. These are the sounds I grew up with. Some of these were rarely used so hearing them now is wild, but most of these are the classic ones we've known all these years, until they brought in the new jingles [sigh] in January 2014.

Memories of me in the back of my dads car while he’s listening. Good ol 90s

[@fredreader1114]

Amen!

[@auti9314]

SAME!😂

[@Pulsepoint129]

My granddad died in 2012. But he had this channel on ALL.THE.TIME! We got the signal all the way up in northern Connecticut. Mike&The Mad Dog and Imus! Oh, such good, golden memories.

[@CoastersBolts]

Hearing these I can see myself back in my dad's 1990 Toyota Camry in Brookfield, CT as he listened to Imus and Mike and the Mad Dog.

[@ENTERTAINMENT35]

Imus was awesome

[@tapesfromtheradio]

I grew up in Bethel, and all the dads in town (including my own) had WFAN on in the car. Good memories

[@railfanatic1416]

My grandpa used to have this on all the time in his 2000 legacy wagon in rural Pennsylvania. Good times

[@floridagator013]

Exactly how I remember it... The Golden Era of WFAN... Overnight with Joe Benigno, Imus, Mike & the Mad Dog and the Mets. The only station I listened to when I was stationed at submarine base New London, CT. from 1990 - 1999. The many hours I spent on I95 heading back to family in New Jersey, sitting in standstill traffic beginning at Exit 11 in Connecticut until I crossed the toll booths on the Jersey side of the GWB listening to this station, these hosts and these jingles. The best memories. They got me through the hours of gridlock. :)

[@Grimmes12]

Tikiguy you remind me of my trips on I-84 to and from Bristol, CT in 2007 while working at ESPN

[@nene90047R1]

Great ol days . I miss those days too ..

[@elchango6183]

jody mack! you remember him

[@dorothysewing9997]

I can just imagine Mad Dog saying “aaaaaannnnndddddd good afternoon everybody! How are you today?”

[@kevinoconnor1912]

I can imagine when the jingle says going @ it as HARD as they can…. Russo going….Miiiiiiiiiiiiiiikeeeeeeeeeeee as Francesca is Hitting him right in his ASS 😀

[@brianlambert1444]

The memories in the car with both my dad and my grandfather as a kid 😩 it feels like yesterday.

Same here. My twin brother and I going down to see family in South Carolina, and having the Fan on until we got to Philadelphia. That is what we remember.

[@Dbo_Sports]

Thanks for putting these up. Big time nostalgia listening to everyone from Jody Mac and Sid in the midday to Steve Somers at night to Joe Benigno/Tony Paige overnight. Love the jingles especially the old Mike and the Mad Dog sounds. These are the kind of sounds you just don't change.

[@jaymum23]

I couldn’t believe they got rid of these after 25 years. Why? They’re timeless, and part of the psyche of the ~20 million people who lived in the NY metro in the 80s-00s.

[@noota]

It's 6 o'clock! *quack quack* This is the Imus in the Morning radio program...

[@nene90047R1]

Wow like back in the good ol days. I go back to when I discover Imus show in the early 90’s .. I was hooked right away

[@1977LROD]

" welcome to mets extra, I'm Howie rose " Nothing but a classic

I really miss my grandfather... these jingles trigger memories of him and his portable radio. As we listen to our mets. I hate that i can never see him again.. Thank you for this video. It sure helps

[@nickrenzo6285]

[@MiddSouthFootball09]

You’re very welcome. Music/jingles always help trigger great memories! Glad this one helps!

[@ryanwilson5469]

This brings back memories as a kid when my dad would pull in the 66 WFAN signal up in Hartford. The signal would be fuzzy in the daytime and afternoon and crystal clear after dark. He explained to me how AM radio Watts work... Great memories of those 90s sports years! Thanks for the post!

[@danski6694]

These are great thank you! Now next put them in the AM radio “sound” format. You know the fuzzy sound

[@robertstettner3664]

Wow these give me so many memories! The FAN was amazing back in the day (92-04ish)

[@matthewpaniagua5106]

These jingles really hit home. Loved this video thank you for uploading this it's absolutely a classic.

[@antonewilson4310]

In the early 90s Imus was the morning drive show on WEEI Boston. Sometimes the engineer would slip up and let the whole jingle play, to include the WFAN call letters. I always liked those jingles.

[@a_plus]

or on the MSNBC feed going to break. Bugged me out when I found WFAN 660 AM on the radio at night as a kid.

I miss these jingles sitting in the back seat of my dad car in the late 90s and early 2000s. Now it’s wack lol and there’s only one sports flash when it used to be every 20 mins and I liked that jingles at the 20 & 40 also 😂

[@ianbrown9400]

Sports radio WIP Philadelphia had jingles made by the same company (JAM) in the early 90’s and 2000’s.

[@rockvilleraven]

So did Washington, DC's WTEM when they went on the air in the late 80s. The station was sort of a knockoff of WFAN, Harris in the Morning, instead of Imus. Keven Kiley and the Coach Rich Gillgallon was our version of Mike and the Mad dog.

[@anthonyn.9228]

I am a jingle fiend. I wish I could find rip-off jingles from WTEM 570AM in DC that used these jingles. Good memories.

[@k2playpedroariel481]

@Andy N The 2014 WFAN jingles are cheesy, not these ones from the past. Just listening it, it sounds horrible and too edgy, maybe way too aggressive, I think... to be a first-class sports radio station like WFAN in New York was in their golden days when they simulcasted on 1050 AM in the mid-80s and 66 in the early 90s and mid-2000s, even though that it was produced by JAM Creative Productions in Dallas, TX, which of course is "the #1 choice for jingles" in America and around the world. Just bring these classic ones again to the present days, or even better: produce a new jingle package for The FAN or any other sports radio station in the nation, but please don't add to much rock to it, bring back the legendary 7 group vocals from JAM Creative Productions that really defines what radio jingles is all about (at least, not in the contemporary trend of AM radio, which it sounds a little bit more cheaper and different to what we enjoyed to listen and be proud of before) and again, enhance the jingles with a orchestral brass and string section, which reminds me of glorious moments and facts in the sport world and of course, the Olympic Games. That should do it for now, but please, don't say anything wrong about my opinion. OK?? Thank you.
