Here are two great examples of the first FM station that gave WABC some competition for the Top 40 audience.
The first track is unscoped from September 1973. It features Walt Baby Love followed by Dave Thompson counting down the top hits of 1970. This was from their pre-99X days when they just referred to the station as WXLO.
Cut Time - 41:47
The second unscoped cut has Jo Jo Morales from December of 1975 winding up the countdown of the top hits of 1972.
Where WABC was loud, 99X was louder. Where WABC DJ's were fast, the 99X jocks were faster.
This is a prime example of a part of the NYC FM sound in the early to mid 1970's.
Cut Time - 25:00
Total Time - 66:47
