Between Tony on the weekend and John McCormick during the week I was in heaven. Both Tony and John Shows were very much alike in style. Both read stories off of the wire and played beautiful music to listen to. I would get up at 3am just to listen to these great guys and I was a in my 20s. What my generation missed. If you have any more shows by either one of them I hope you will posted them one day. One more thing about John McCormick. He was the  man who walked and talked at midnight and would always sign off by saying,"and now the night has separated from the day". OH where is Bob Hyland when we need him. The might Mo was magical station during the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Thanks again for the memories of the might MO, the voice of St. Louis. Many thanks for bringing  back a lot of great memories.

Maybe it's just nostalgia but I really enjoy listening to these old airchecks. Thanks again, Professor! Another great post.

Probably a generational thing. When I was a teenager I would have ignored the likes of Oren. But listening back, it really is a lost world. There were still adults that inhabited a completely different cultural universe than their kids. Those adults were my parents, one of whom is now dead. Nowadays almost anything in the mass media is geared toward the 18-34 demographic and there's no "grown-up" niche like there used to be. Just modern rock and classic rock and oldies-rock for the elderly. But the oldies stuff just doesn't seem the same thing. Though it's gonna die out soon, too. I get the same nostalgia.
