Yes, this is one of my extremely rare non-ReelWorld posts, but I thought some of you guys would enjoy this montage.

Back in the early 2000s (long before I had heard of ReelWorld), I began my intense interest in jingles with those of the Oldies format (including Tony Griffin, JAM, and TM jingle packages), and I would catch as many jingles as I could off the airwaves and streams of different stations.  A number of these stations carried syndicated shows by Dick Bartley, and I collected jingles from those shows as well.

I vaguely remember hearing a promo for the show "Rock & Roll's Greatest Hits" back in 2003 on Oldies 97.5 (WJIM-FM) with a jingle in it.  I was fascinated by this jingle so much that I stayed up late one Saturday night to catch as many as I can from the show.  I remember carrying a portable radio with me up to northern Michigan to hear the show on another station, and I found out about American Gold in early 2004 on an Orlando vacation (the affiliate was WSHE "Cool 100").  I also received a number of CDs of various American Gold shows.

I eventually went online to radio station streams in early 2013 and late 2017 to hear these jingles again, and I found out from my great friend Chad Beach a year ago that Mr. Bartley brought back the show as "Rock & Roll's Greatest Hits: The 60's Show."  He aired many more jingles on this show than I caught in the '10s.  Because of this, and to celebrate Mr. Bartley's amazing radio career (whose syndication journey ended just yesterday), I decided to assemble a montage throughout 2021 of nearly all his jingles for this show.  Hearing these jingles always brings me back to memory lane!

This montage is arranged by jingle type/package, then in the order that I heard the jingles over the years (as best as I can remember), with the exception of the year jingles which are in chronological order.  Many of his jingles come in full mixes and alternate mixes (along with acapellas).  All jingles were recorded off various station streams between late January 2021 and early January 2022.  Enjoy!

And for those curious, I recall the 1962 year sing being the same melody as '63 and '69.  I haven't heard it in over 17 years!

Montage Of JAM Jingles Not Available For Download On The Website

Back when both WMJX and WMGQ were using Thompson Creative full time for their jingles (All while owned by the same company, Greater Media), they would heavily use jingles and air the same one sweeper every music set!

WMGQ, 'Magic 98.3,' New Brunswick, NJ - Thompson Creative Crescent City Magic

JAM KEGL (SKYWAVE ALTERNATES)

Ever since I can remember, 93.3 in Albuquerque, New Mexico has been '93.3 KOB FM.' 

But on November 15, 2019, the station became '93.3 The Q.'

According to RadioInsight.com, "the move away from the KOB-FM branding and KKOB-FM call letters helps differentiate the station from sister News/Talk 770 KKOB, which has been putting much more emphasis on its 94.5 translator frequency."

I dug out some old tapes and found some digital files on hard drives, and put together this montage of KOB FM over the years, starting with 1992. As an avid jingle collector, the montage is very jingle heavy, but I threw in some liners and promos as well. 

And speaking of jingles, if you worked at station in the 1990's/2000's and may have copies of the JAM/TM jingles in the clear, please contact me!  I heard the jingles were either lost or destroyed. :(

In any event, enjoy this look back at KOB FM!
