Rita Wilde To Handle Nights At 100.3 The Sound L.A.

OC Radio Geek said:
I must say that 107.1 The Peak is a brilliant station and I wish that we had something similar here in SoCal!! I would be a religious, avid listener if we did! ;D I wasn't aware of KFOG's 10@10 so I'm definitely going to tune in to that. I'm very much like SRF. I rarely ever listen to OTA radio. Yuck! When I'm driving, I listen to AltNation on Sirius/XM constantly. I love their mix of new alternative music. Also, the Indie station on Sirius/XM is quite good!

I may be mistaken, but I believe the 10@10 started at KFOG and the man who did it for over 2 decades was Dave Morey. He kept doing it for KFOG for a year or so after he retired and moved to Michigan. KFOG decided that a current talent at the station should do it instead, so no more Dave, but he was really the best at it, better than anyone else so far in my opinion.

Agreed that Dave did it best. He is a bay area radio icon, and one should always pity the poor soul who has to fill the shoes of an icon; but in that role, Analisa, who has been with the station for many years, does an adequate job of tweaking the presentation just a bit while keeping the main tradition alive.

Good for Rita, kudos to her!

Far as sampling Rita and Meems, I can only stomach The Sound's playlist in small batches with the exclusion of Mimi's Peace Love & Sunday morning excellent show.

@ChannelFlipper, as always, enjoyed immensely your take above!! Live Springsteen indeed! :)

Super, I was beginning to wonder if you were still on this board. Good to hear from you.

Oddly enough, generally the only time I listen to the Sound is in the shower where I have my trusty little shower radio. It doesn't get anything fancy like internet or sat (or even KCSN for that matter), so I am stuck with the big stick locals. Since I am not in the KIIS or Power demo any more, its basically a flip-fest between Jack, KLOS, and the Sound. But boy it sure picks up those Doors tunes late at night, and they definitely Light My Fire.

Now time to address that missing persons report for Glenn...

Hey ChannelFlipper, thanks for the mention :)
I check this board just about every day.... Haven't posted much lately, not that much to talk about re. boring SoCal OTA radio :p I am not an Urban format fan, so there's that. There's some obvious format holes which some posted about, so there's that. KCSN has a good format, and I guess we'll see how it improves or gets worse under Sky Daniels' direction, so there's that.
Glenn was last seen at the all-night InNOut flipping burgers, so there's that. [just kidding Glenn, the Italian Stallion]

If I have the radio on in the shower it's probably tuned to an Internet station (yes)

I'm so bad that if I gas my wife's car up at the local Arco, a five minute drive from home, I can't stand to listen to OTA SoCal radio on the way there, so I play a CD of what I burned from recording the Internet stream of AAA-formatted WXPK 107.1 The Peak ("in New York's Backyard"), my favorite station. I have a six CD changer in my car which plays the same CDs of The Peak, which I record on an ongoing basis. On rewritable CDs.

Below is a partial list of some of the tracks played by WXPK yesterday. I've omitted the classic rock Usual Suspects as well as those AAA tracks that are very familiar to most including those AAA songs which crossed over to Hot AC. It's OK to include some classic rock tracks and/or classic rock artists as long as that's not all there is!! No, the list below is comprised of tracks which may or may not be familiar to ChannelFlipper and others, most of which I assume David Eduardo would call stiffs and noise. You know, not everyone wants to watch on TV Dancing With the Stars, The Great Escape, Survivor, American Idol, The Office, Big Bang Theory, and CSI. Some of us actually like Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Big Love, Hung, Weeds, and Jeopardy. The list below shows songs and artists which have long been neglected by SoCal "rock" stations. Many people are missing out on some great music, past and present.

[Obviously if you're into Lady GAG, Beyonce, JayZee, Kanye West, Katy Perry, Britney, et al, these songs may not thrill you ;) )

Also below is The Peak's 10@10 compared with The Sound's 10@10 from yesterday (unfortunately The Sound's most recent 10@10 from the same year 1967 was not available). The difference is striking. (ex. Hot Legs... yikes!!)

John, Glad to see you still around. Miss You 'Dude'. - You Made this comment "If I have the radio on in the shower it's probably tuned to an Internet station (yes)" I can't listen to KSWD except for Meems, therefore I listen to KFOG and Radio Paradise in my car, at work and at home on my iStereo docking unit. I need to find that shower radio !!! JG
