Raleigh, N.C. - It’s the “reel” deal, a repository of over 3,500 historically significant airchecks and web content from Top 40 radio, known as ReelRadio.
Airchecks from some of radios most famous personalities like Casey Kasem, Rick Dees, Gary Owens, Wolfman Jack and many more. One of the many artifacts on the ReelRadio site includes radio legend Don Imus interviewing Wolfman Jack in a “free-wheeling and fascinating exchange about Wolfman’s early years in radio.”. This turned out to be the Wolfman’s last interview, passing away about a week later.
ReelRadio has now been restored and made publicly available thanks to the preservation efforts of the North Carolina Broadcast History Museum and the expertise of Beasley Media Group’s digital division. The conversion took place over the last 12 months, funded by the Museum.
