The station that would be known as "X-Rock 80" would launch with a new air staff on December 27, 1973. Here is the first station composite generated by that group of radio professionals. The voices you hear include Randy Hames, Eric Chase, Jim White, Christopher Haze, Bill Stevens, and Steve Sever. The station that Eric Chase dubbed "The 150-thousand watt Chili Bean" would go on to enjoy virtually unprecedented and rapid, if short-lived, ratings success.
