Allan Sniffen was saying that WABC is starting an oldies show this Saturday night from 6 to 10PM. Mark Simone will host it.
The old Musicradio jingles, the music... the whole thing.
From a radio programming point of view, it's a good move for WABC. The demo that misses CBS-FM in many ways overlaps WABC's talk demo and talk on Saturday night isn't exactly a big draw.
WABC is going back to its music roots. For the radio geek in me, it doesn't get any better. And for the radio watcher in me, it's not a bad idea. WABC had some success with a Saturday night Sinatra show a few years back so why not fill this void?
Any questions looking forward to that. I can get WABC up in Kingston, NY where "Cool 92.9" is having problems with its FM oldies station until older people would go to AM.
