NERW. 1600 WUNR Brookline MA changes?

[tony schinella]

Hi all,

Back in the late 1990s when I worked overnights 
there as a board op, and there wasn't a Spanish 
contractor playing music, I would vary the music 
from gospel and sould, to swing and classical, or 
sometimes Spanish music, depending on the night of 
the week. We didn't have any oldies or much music 
available and I was, unfortunately, discouraged 
from being creative. :-) It was a difficult spot 
to lease although there was this one Spanish guy 
who had a popular call in show on Tuesday, 
Wednesay, and Thursday, but he was later bumped 
for Galaxia - who later went under after a few 
months.

Best,
Tony Schinella
