Dear Radio Enthusiast,
While Xelocast radio stations
WHAV and
StreamingSuperstation attract listeners from around
the globe, ownership and programming are distinctly
local
.
WHAV, for example, delivers its own “Soft
Gold” music format, a variety of local voices and select
features. In fact, only local radio can bring you
this combination of music, news and features, but only
WHAV does.
More importantly, Xelocast stations are uniquely
relevant in this
digital age
with
CD-quality audio broadcast over the Internet and seven cable
television channels.
If you believe a community
benefits from a diversity of viewpoints, help spread
the word by forwarding this newsletter to family,
friends and co-workers. They will be happy you did.
The Wonder of ‘One Hit Wonders’
One advantage of listening to Xelocast radio
stations is the ability to hear music not heard elsewhere,
such as a variety of top hits performed by rare artists.
These “one hit wonders” topped the charts and their music remains among treasured favorites. For some reason, however, these artists never found huge success a second time.
Even the iPod set will find it
difficult to find some of this music, including “More Than
Just the Two of Us” by Sneaker, “You Take My Breath Away” by
Rex Smith and “All I Need” by Jack Wagner. In fact, Xelocast stations WHAV and StreamingSuperstation had to dig deep into the archives to find vinyl 45s of these hits.
Here is a small sampling of one hit wonders heard on WHAV and StreamingSuperstation:

New Dramas Join Fall Lineup
Two additions to WHAV’s classic
radio lineup – “The Couple Next Door” and “Gunsmoke” – begin
during the week of September 1. The additions mean comedy and
drama will air seven nights a week at 10 p.m. and 1
a.m., Eastern time.
Massachusetts resident Peg Lynch
(left)
wrote and starred in “The Couple Next Door” beginning in
1957. The show’s predecessor began in 1944 as “Ethel &
Albert” and aired at different times on both radio and
television. Lynch’s co-stars were Alan Bunce who played her husband and Margaret
Hamilton (better known as the Wicked Witch of the West in
“The Wizard of Oz”) who
played Aunt Effie.
It has been said that Lynch created the first “show about nothing,”
long before TV’s Seinfeld. Storylines focus on familiar
themes such as finding the lost car keys, babysitting problems,
paying bills and more. It is a hilarious situation comedy,
yet without corny punch lines. It is also a serial in that
complications such as having a baby, building a house and
taking trips carry forward through many shows, yet without
melodrama.
The western, “Gunsmoke,” came to radio in 1952 where
it remained until 1961, overlapping the television series that
began in 1955. The radio cast included William Conrad as Matt
Dillon, Howard McNear as Doc Adams, Georgia Ellis as Kitty and
Parley
Baer as Chester.
Don’t call these shows old. As has
been said, if you have not heard them before, they are
new
to you.
