I was born 10 years later in 1992. Ten years after that in 2002, I was seeing them in concert on their 40th anniversary tour. That was 20 years ago, and I am now 30 in the year 2022. And they are still touring (albeit without Charlie, which is a substantial loss). That's just wild. As for Meg Griffin, I listen to her on SiriusXM on the telephone in my pocket.

If you were young and in New York from 1969-1979 then you were lucky. Scott Muni, Johnathin Schwartz, and the Night Bird made WNEW the model for FM radio. Radio is dead but the memories are very much alive. .

amazing time in radio

This video has done so much for me,all the memories,all the times listening in my bedroom,hoping to hear,pulling mussels from a shell and tempted by the fruit of another.This video really took me back...wow.

Robin Drews as the newscaster was and still is amazing. A truly humble and brilliant woman.

Grew up listening to WNEW-FM. Scott Muni, Pete Fornatelle, Dave Herman, Richard Near, Meg Griffin, etc...... Great times. OMG "Tonight's dreaded oldie will be 'How Much is that Doggie in the Window"" Now that was a DREADED by 1982!! I remember that song, because my mother had a ton of old 78 records, one of which was Pattie Paige's "How Much is that Doogie in the Window", and I remember my mother playing that song constantly for my sister and I when we were very you. -btw- Funny how Meg mentions a Rolling Stone concert and how it might be the last chance to see them perform live. 40 years later, and the Stones are still performing live.

WNEW was awesome, to say the least! I listened to them religiously, growing up in North Jersey. Scottso's voice was so soothing and fatherly, it 'drew you in'! I remember just marveling at the fidelity of FM back then, staring at the dual power meters on my Pioneer SX-780 stereo receiver I had picked up at 'TECH HI-FI' in Paramus! Sounded great on my 'Realistic' speakers with the added 'super tweeters' I placed on top!

Man, I wish both AM and FM radio was like that today. Radio today is completely worthless, it's nothing but commercials.

Found this little gem searching for something else. Remembered a song by Reverberi, called Muni’s Mood, which I first heard on WNEW. Always assumed it was a tribute to Scottso...(Reverberi, Stairway to Heaven album) Anyway, looking for that, found this. I grew up listening to “N E W” probably around 71? I can’t imagine there ever being a better radio station to grow up listening to. Enjoyed them till the end... So many great memories... Remember when they played their 1millionth song. For days we wondered what it would be. And then the day came and we found out... “God Gave Rock and Roll to You” by Argent Couldn’t have been a more perfect choice. So much of my musical influences came from listening to “the Nightbird” Allison Steele. She was a big fan of Prog Rock. Learned to love all those bands. ELP, Yes, Pink Floyd etc. But best of all, she turned me on to one of her favorites. “Renaissance” with lead vocalist Annie Harlem. My only regret, is that I never got to meet Allison, to tell her how much she molded this young kids taste in music. Thanks for the post, and for helping those of us that were lucky enough to have experienced WNEW-FM 102.7 in NYC to remember those glory days...👍🏻❤️😎🍻

I remember the station well. I was there at 1989 when there was a contest to win tickets to see the Who perform "Tommy" at Radio City Music Hall. The Dave Herman show sent out the challenge of what was the most outrageous thing you would do to win the tickets. I called in and said I would listen to Barry Manilow records for a couple of days. They took me up on it and I was there for 24 hours straight listening to the records. I survived and saw an awesome show.

I didn't live in the NYC area or be able to listen to WNEW back in the day. I was interested in the days when I had my stereo and played records and tapes before the advent of the CD and the rest of the digital transition. In this respect, this video is an unplanned time capsule. Note that I didn't notice a computer on anybody's desk...

Oh my God what a magical find behind that window invisible window of radio this made me cry

I surely remember Scott Muni and WNEW- FM..wow!!..

I still remember Dave Herman for his groundbreaking show The Marconi Experiment, which introduced Philly (& me) to the nascent progressive rock movement (which was called Underground Radio back in the day). Freed from the confines of the Top 40 formulaic crap, this new concept allowed music lovers to get into rock in a big way. I came from a classical music background and progressive rock turned me on to the greater possibilities of the rock format. RIP Dave. I say this despite the people who get their rocks off by airing their moral outrage.

Agreed. It’s repulsive even seeing his name, let alone hearing his voice, knowing of his criminally sexual, monstrous perversions with children. The sicko has been scrubbed from every aspect of the Philly station where he stared his ‘experiment.’

Remember the WNEW rock calendar?

WNEW had more heart than any station ever.

had the opportunity to play with my band at his discotheque at 48th st 2nd ave NYC back in 67 or 68.

Can’t even look at Dave Herman on this. Sick man....

Scott! Dave! Pete! Where did you all go?? RIP Scottso. Radio has indeed lost a voice. Dave Herman, hope you're still lighting up the air somewhere with your casual laid-back banter. Hope you haven't lost the keys to that vault! Radio is simply not the same now - very homgenized, corporatized, and desensitized to local community demographics. Thanks for posting these memories!

Last I heard, Dave Herman was retired & living on a tropical island, possibly in the Carribean. Sadly, Pete passed away last year. And I agree, radio is not the same.

back in 1980 I ended up in New York one sunny morning at the WNEW studio. the doorman was nice enough to let me up into the studio for the rock and roll morning show with dave herman. I was a fan since 1972, hearing him every morning as I got ready for school. anyway, dave was a turn off from the get-go. i got some bad vibes from him. i never listened to him again. maybe I DID see right thru him. and he new it. and now he has ruined my rock and roll memories...ugh!

history

Yes, that's what got me here, unfortunately. N-E-W, as we called it, was OUR station. We felt a close affinity to all the jocks, Muni, Fornatale, Griffon, Steele, Elsas, Scelsa, Herman, and even some of the newsies like Robin Sagon. Just so disgusted with who Herman turned out to be. From what he is purported to have said it is probably safe to assume he's been engaging in this nonsense for years if not decades. As one of my FB friends said: WN-eeeeeewwwww.

Nice receiver.

0:03 - This clip of the late Scott(so) Muni begs the question: What state of health was he in by the early 1980s? Or is he moving around like that to properly articulate for radio?

@claudecall

He was in generally good health when this clip was shot. In my experience, a lot of people in radio have weird tics that they do when they're on-mic. He was on WNEW until 1998, when he jumped over to WAXQ (Q104.3). He continued working there until he had a stroke in January 2004, which incapacitated him until his death in September.

There's something missing in this mash note, but I know not what. Ah.. It has come to me. It is too sweet, too kind, too soft.

No Sacred Cow mentioned 4 years ago about Meg Griffin saying in 1982 ( time: 6:45) ‘you never know when the Stones will stop touring. Here it is in 2019 and the Stones will be out on tour. 37 years later, for God’s sake!! 😂😂😂
