Another fabulous memory from the Streert Beat show on WPGR in Philly around 1995. Not heard for years and A GREAT ONE!! Thanks PJ

I remember WPGR. What ever happened to them? That was one of the greatest stations. I could never get it in my house and it barely came through in the car, but I listened anyway. We'd listen to Blavat on Saturdays on the drive to my own radio show on WCNJ. I remember we'd be able to get him right on up to about the halfway point of the trip

@PJDooWop They sold out to a multi-cultural and talk station in June of 1995. The last show was on a

Friday night by the late and great Georgie woods.

@Glendoras they sold out to some Jap or Chinese group back in 1995 or so. It was by far the greatest radio station I ever heard.
