Jim Ameche 1965
Jim Ameche had the most beautiful sounds around. An hour of orchestral music, with just the right touch of personality. Jim had knocked around in radio since the 1930s but hit his stride with syndicated DJ shows starting in the 1950s. As the man that made syndicated DJ shows work he was a natural for the world's largest radio network.
Gene Price 1974
Gene Price updates us on the benefits of joining todays all volunteer force! These programs would run on local radio here in the states and be credited as 25 minutes of Public Service time. Very popular on Sunday morning.

Charlie Tuna 1980
That picture is from the AFRTS-LA promo set of 8x10s that went to every station. We lost Charlie a while back. The family is working on a tribute at http://www.charlietuna.com
It's a trip to 1980, a Friday and time for the Charlie Tuna Show.
Joe Allison 1967
First couple of minutes on this are a little rough, but Joe has a nice show here. Rich Green from AFRTS Kwajelein visits with Joe
Wolfman Jack 1973
Summer in the city. The summer of 1973...
Wolfman's back with more information about the Air Force . I remember these from when I was a kid....
Roger Carroll 1972
I really wish I had both sides of this one. Roger Carroll was celebrating Friday, it was 1972 and bandleader Les Brown stopped by.

Andy Mansfield 1963
Andy Mansfield loved his oldies, but when you start doing an oldies show in the 1950s we hear big band and before. His first show was with his wife but always it was some of his favorites from his collection.
Tom Campbell 1971
Tom Campbell is back with what's happening stateside. Today we see what's going on in Honolulu from KPOI.
Tom has sent over a bunch of shows that he did and his best wishes. Enjoy!

One Night Stand 1962
Well into the 1960s radio had remote broadcasts from the big bands. AFRTS played these for the troops worldwide on One Night Stand. A little piece of home.
Si Zentner had a very good band. Unfortunately, the big bands were dying out. But they'll always have a magic:
Roland Bynum 1980
Bill Stewart 1969
Amazing talent from KMPC
Bill Stewart is back for another swinging hour. It's a little jumpy near the beginning but it fills the Bill..

Don Tracy 1980
It's Don Tracy with another hour of favorites. I'm still in suspense. Don has some things coming up that could be good. But right now, Don Tracy!
Chris Noel 1970
Chris Noel back with another hour of memories of 1970.
Chris has a new book "Filming Cease Fire" about the movie she did with Don Johnson. "Cease Fire" was the first movie to deal with PTSD.

Jim Ameche 1965
"The Most Beautiful Sounds Around" is a phrase that evokes the rarity of orchestral music today. Jim Ameche, a prominent figure during the golden age of radio, introduced it to AFRTS. He remained a successful DJ, sustaining his stardom beyond his radio days.
Gene Price 1980
Gene wrote a holiday book for kids of all ages, it's a nice read and great for holiday giving.
Gene Price is back with your kind of country. It's memories of 1980 on AFRTS
Hear Gene at 5am Pacific, 8am Eastern on https://www.mybestsounds.com

Wolfman Jack 1972
Your weekend howls with Wolfman Jack.
In 1972 the Air Force had Wolf magic... I remember these, making the military much cooler.
Roger Carroll 1968
Roger Carroll at the Hollywood Palladium
It's the best sounds in town! Here's Roger Carroll with some 1968 fun. Busy times, AFRTS show, KMPC, CBS and I'm sure a bunch of agency work. Nice...
