What an insightful piece Bob.  Thanks for sharing. 

Congratulations JAM with (approx) 40 years in 40 countries! These cuts were resung by (mostly) Top Format for a lot of European stations in the 80s and 90s...

JAM 40 years in 40 Countries

During my visit to Dallas in February 2014, I interviewed Jon Wolfert about the development of JAM jingles for BBC Radio 1 and 2. All other audio from the visit, plus photographs, is here:

Here are most JAM WNBC main cuts sung by Top Format in 1988 for Radio 10 in The Netherlands. The station flipped to Gold format two years later, and had all cuts resung with the name Radio 10 Gold.

JAM Radio 1 Clones

A musical hodgepodge of TM Productions jingles assembled  "with no rhyme or reason" in the early summer of 1980.  I worked at TM at the time so I figured why not!  Assembled in studio A on the MCI 528 console, MCI Multi-track from existing client safety copies.  Most of the jingles were originally sung in 1979 and 1980.
