Charlie was with us from the Vietnam years until 1996. Easy to tell how he was a morning tradition for such a long time.

Charlie Tuna and Sugar Ray Leonard
Charlie Tuna has always been a champ. This broadcast is from around the Leonard/Duran "no mas" fight. That was a night to be in Panama.

Which kind of jockey?
Suddenly it's 1982, another morning show done and time for Charlie. Over at Charlie's website he has an interview with the late fitness guru Jack LaLanne (is there anyone he didn't have a conversation with?)

Jim Pewter 1982
The man with the amazing beat! Jim Pewter has your favorite memories. Jim had some pretty good records with his own group (look for them). Ended up in the army at AFKN. Very shortly after in Los Angeles radio and doing the show from McCadden Place. (1967). Jim was around until the change in 1996.

Harry Newman 1982
Today we bring to Archive AFTRS another golden piece of radio history. It´s a Harry Newman aircheck from the American base radio in Torrejón de Ardoz, Madrid, Spain, in 1982.
Emmylou Harris is a country music legend and member of the Country Music Hall of Fame. By that time, 1982, Harry Newman was one of the best dj´s of country music along with Gene Price. And both of them worked for the American Forces Radio. On its program he played the best country music and interviewed the best country music acts like Emmylou Harris or Crystal Gayle. He knew his country music.
