Amazing to read these posts. My Dad was John Van Buren (a/k/a Jack) Sullivan, President & General Manager of WNEW in the late 50's and 60's (and 1 of the brains behind WNEW-FM.) I grew up in the station with Ted Brown, Willie B., Klavan & Finch (and Rayburn), Jim Lowe, Marty Glick, Al DeRogatis, Kyle Rote & the NY Giants. Great to know others still remember ... there's only one.....
aw...I miss this station too. Grew up listening to it in the 1980's. Even after it became WQEW for a short while, it was worth listening to. It's a shame radio like this isn't around anymore. Thankfully, we have the internet.....
The greatest station of all time. I grew up in NY listening to Ted Brown, Willie B, Jonathan Schwartz, Jim Lowe, Bob Jones, etc. I have an interview with Jim Lowe here on YouTube. Thanks for posting.
I wouldn't say they were radio "jingles", but rather "Musical Signatures"... That's just my opinion.
In any event, I am impressed that you were able to save a little piece of radio history in your archives! I have taped radio jingles beginning in 1991, but those tapes were either erased or destroyed! I still have a piece of radio history dating back to 1997, though. I will post some goodies on my DBRadioDaytonOH account soon! :-)
My parents favorite radio station for all their lives!

Listen to Ted saying "The Pride of New York", it really was. Damn corporate greed for taking it away.
