Where do they get the vocal groups to sing all those great jazz harmonies in the station jingles like the one at 9:33 (the Jersey Mermaid)? The chords are awesome, and I would never get tired of singing them.

thelonearranger1A company named "Pam's Jingles" did almost every snappy radio jingle in the country back then.

scdevon I am sure you mean "Production Advertising Merchandising Service (P-A-M-S) Jingles", +scdevon.

[@JP5466]

Yes.... 4 and 5 part harmony, often dubbed over and over again 3 or 4 times to make it sound thick and rich like that. The Carpenters did the same thing.

[@MrSlapshot714]

WPST, WIBG, WFIL, WABC, WNEW, so many stations to enjoy in the tri state area, rock 104, there will be no stations like that anymore, damn shame

WJRZ-FM "Stereo 100.1" Ship Bottom, New Jersey (now Manahawkin, New Jersey) Station Identification From 1976 And-Or 1977 At 5:20.

[@JP5466]

My parents favorite station back then, they listened it to when driving to the shore from Philly/ We did that every year from 1971 to 1980. Great memories sitting in the back seat of the car listening to some great music. Music really sucks today..... what happened?

[@JP5466]

At 6:22 you hear the end of the Carpenters "I Need To Be In Love". That was released in mid-1976.

[@BananaTV1978]

What do the station and call signs mean? WBJN for example?

[@gli7utubeo]

Radio was important in NJ back then because reception from NY was pretty flaky. I remember that "American Information Radio" sound from back then. Don't think I've heard it for 20-30 years. (at 6:00) Thanks!
