Dan Ingram
by
This station aircheck captures Dan Ingram on WABC, offering a slice of New York radio as heard on November 11, 1961. Ingram was a prominent Top 40 disc jockey whose lively, conversational style helped make the station’s broadcasts distinctive.
Airchecks preserve the sound and flow of a radio broadcast, including the announcer’s links between records and the station’s on-air presentation. This recording centers on Ingram’s presence at the microphone and the atmosphere of WABC, rather than a scripted drama or narrated book.
Listeners can enjoy the period’s broadcast style and hear the personality that made Ingram a celebrated radio voice. It is a compact document of a particular station, performer, and day on the air.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
