Over our 26 year history, 97X / WOXY.com has spun literally thousands of bands and songs that you simply wouldn’t hear anywhere else. Many, in fact, broke through to listeners and became hits that were truly unique to the station. I mean, where else were you going to hear “The Sweater”, “Rebirth Of The Cool”, “Sci-Fi Wasabi”, “Get On The Bus”? Exactly!

So, we put together this special edition of the WOXY Vintage program to feature a sampling of those special songs & bands that can only be associated with the FM days of The Future of Rock & Roll. They may not have been hits anywhere else but sure rocked our world at 97.7 FM. We also tossed some old commercials from longtime 97X advertisers Jungle Jim’s, Everybody’s Records, Scentiments/Rock City, Oxford Kroger, and the Rock & Roll Grocery himself, Frank Eavey, into the mix. We’ll also put the ‘”GEE!” in Ecology’ and hear Bake “save, save, save, save, save, save” with 97Xtra Cash Coupons. These audio extras haven’t been heard anywhere in years.

In all, That’s Soooo 97X is a love letter to longtime listeners. Listen & enjoy a stroll down 5120 College Corner Pike. BAM!

We’ve heard from a lot of local HD adapters about getting a li’l Vintage Channel programming in the mix, and so it shall be! Starting this Saturday (October 27), rise & shine to a 3-hour block of handpicked tunes straight from the archives of the WOXY Vintage Channel. Join me this and every Saturday from 8-11a and we’ll listen to a bunch of great tunes that, I can safely safely say, comprise the History of the Future of Rock & Roll.
