WKNC 88.1 gets national ranking

[BJD95]

In September of 1991, WKNC first introduced me to the music of Soundgarden, and the track that would be my pre-game (attending, or playing hoops or tennis) anthem for most of my adult life (“Jesus Christ Pose”). Thanks for the memories, and for being a very good college radio station, WKNC.

Back in the mid 90s when it played heavy metal almost all day every day it was by far the #1 station in the world. This was before that terminology meant yelling and screaming and no real singing. They unfortunately quit being a heavy metal station around 2000. Actually that’s probably for the best because all the best stuff was prior to 2000 anyway.

During the mid 90s I only listened to some of the speciality shows because it was heavy metal as the bass programing. I like the current format much better.

Springsteen’s “Greetings from Asbury Park” in ’73.

Who are those guys?

[TheCOWDOG]

Put Peabody’s Way Back Machine on for “Greetings From Asbury Park.”

88.1 is responsible for introducing Springsteen to the Wolfpack, back in 19and73.
