Wife Good Guys179 viewsThroughout the 60s, WIFE was THE station for rock music. They actually were a "Top 40" station. Each of the jocks had a routine they did, giving them a kind of celebrity status. FM radio changed all that, placing less emphasis on the disc jockeys.

Judging by the songs in the list, I'd say this was about 1967.
