From the North American Powerhouse.............CKLW!

[marv2]

Legendary "MOJO" [[not Detroit's Mojo) but WOHO Toledo's own...............

[marv2]

CKLW so powerful, so influential , that this is where Motown chose to first publicly announce that Diana Ross was leaving the Supremes. LOL! .....From Halloween, 1969!

Jo-Jo Shutty-MacGregor from the big 8 CKLW still broadcasts traffic on the weekend on CKWW 580 on your AM dial...

Marv, thanks for posting. CKLW is part of my DNA! So much part of the city. I swear Detroit had some of the best radio media in the country. The Detroit news channels are some of the best in the country, especially channel 7!!!! I so much miss Detroit.
Thanks again!

YES Stingbeelee! I still listen. I am listening to CKWW right now. I was suprised that they had JoJo [[Mrs. Bryon MacGregor) on the air after all these years.

DET! You are most welcome and I know what you mean. That's how I came to find SDF over 12 years ago! We did have the best didn't we?

Jillfoster, what a great idea for discussion/post! So much has changed in radio. I don't even listen to it much these days.

In[d.c.]we had three soul stations[w-u-s-t..w-o-o-k..-w-o-l]and the dj's played everything[a sides-b-sides]now radio is a sad joke,unless you have satellite.

Hey Marv; I made a big mistake! JoJo Shutty-MacGregor is on WWJ on the weekends not CKWW! She is still doing traffic reports; and she was the first female helicopter traffic reporter in North America! Boy, Byron MacGregor and 20/20 news; they made it seem like every story they did was of the utmost importance...It was in-your-face reporting!

No Stingbeelee, you didn't make a mistake. I heard JoJo on CKWW several times this year.

These would be better if they were not edited.

I was still listening to WWRL in the mid 90s!
