That's when John Borders (who was the automated voice of Rock 102) passed away. 

 

Before I had my own fav music style, my family would listen to Rock 102.
I'll never forget that voice.

Could this have been Brandy Scrufari, by any chance? 

That sounds right
 

Thanks!

Sounds like I'm getting closer to the shows playlists and dates aired.

Wow! Are they transcription discs made at the station, or were they available for purchase.

Not that I'm looking to buy, but I have never ran into those, and I am always digging through old records at thrift stores, garage sales, etc.

Does anyone remember in the mid-1980's a radio program that used to be on Rock 102.5 out of Buffalo NY that was called "Classic Cuts"?

In my basement I recently discovered a cassette I had recorded off the radio waaaaaay back then. It was this program "Classic Cuts" on Rock 102,
and this particular show featured an hour of music by The Jefferson Airplane.

Rock 102 did not play this style of music back then, so it was a real treat to hear it.
Might have been when 97 Rock was off the air, maybe?

I'm pretty sure it was weekly, on Fridays.

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone here remembers the program, who hosted it, and maybe knows where I can get playlists of other shows.

I have three soundclips of the DJ host that I copied from my recording after I digitized it on to my computer:

Any info would be greatly appreceiated.
