WABC was a Top 40 music radio station from December 1960 until May 1982. Over that time, it changed and evolved as both radio and music did. On this section of the web site we present over thirty Dan Ingram airchecks in chronological order starting in 1961 and continuing into 1982.

The WABC Musicradio site has every single weekly music survey published by WABC on line. This is a great accomplishment and a tribute to these people who have put in a huge amount of time collecting, verifying and formatting these surveys.

This is a webpage dedicated to the greatest Top 40 music radio station of all time: WABC New York. From December 7, 1960 to May 10, 1982 WABC was the definition of Top 40 radio. It was the most influential music radio station of its day and had the power to make a hit record by simply playing it on a hunch.

We now have enough airchecks to do three full days of Musicradio WABC every year. That alone is a testament to the ongoing legacy of "The Greatest Top 40 Radio Station of All Time!". Below are links that describe each year that WABC itself did WABC Rewound.

Here is an early Dan Ingram aircheck from 1961 shortly after he started at "Channel 77" WABC. Listen to the long jingles, the early Palisades Amusement Park ad, Action Central News intro. and the promos.

Those years WABC published only the Top 77. 1982 lists only 40 songs because no list was actually published that year since the station had changed its format. The 1982 list is from Rick Sklar's book "Rocking America" where he lists the most popular 40 songs.

The Jingles . WABC jingles. In the world of radio, there are none more famous. Whether you remember them from listening to the station or if you are an avid collector of radio station jingles, WABC is probably the most famous radio station ever for its tremendous number of jingles.

Musicradio WABC had one the most stable group of disc jockeys of any Top 40 radio station. But, even so, with a format that survived for over 21 years, there were many who worked there. Here is as much information as I have been able to gather about these very talented radio disc jockeys.
