To compliment the prior posts, here are the 3rd and 4th jingle packages for WWBB (B101) in Providence, separated by cue tones. It marks the 34th anniversary of the 12/26/89 launching of their Oldies (now marketed as “classic”) format. The packages were too short for individual posts. These are JAM ‘Hi-Qume” (4/93) and “Do It Again” (12/94) jingles, respectively.

2024 is the 35th year of the WWBB call letters and the “oldies” format. Here, saved from the dumpster is a composite of Christmas holiday production and greetings at the “turn of the century” with the very live and very local 1999 WWBB (B101) full staff. This is what radio was.

In digitizing all my analog media, here’s a find from 2007 when B101 (WWBB/Providence) carried AT40/The 70s with Casey Kasem. It’s a series of Custom Liners for our call letters. Pro that he was, he apparently rips right through them without retakes. He would pass on 7 years later.
