KIIS-FM (July 3, 1993, with Rick Dees, John Murphy, and Whitney Brown)

"It's 7 O'Clock on the West Coast at KIIS...K-I-I-S, FM & AM, Los Angeles". Voiced by the late and great Brian James, that's one of my all-time favorite legal IDs, and many variations of it are heard on this compilation from the Summer of 1993.

At this time, in celebration of Independence Day, KIIS had a very amusing "Red, White and Balls Weekend" promotion that included liners such as "dangle your balls from your rearview mirror" and "just make sure your balls are visible."

At a time when many CHRs struggled to find success with the increasingly polarized nature of the format, KIIS elected to mix in a number of hits from years past -- the station's slogan at the time was "The Best Hits of the 80′s and 90′s."

Whitney Allen (one of the personalities featured on this aircheck) currently hosts a nationally syndicated Saturday night country radio show (website here), while Rick Dees just began hosting mornings at Los Angeles Rhythmic AC Hot 92.3 (KHHT).

Sorta odd that the Twist and Shout was considered Gold on KIIS
