The music on WVLG has changed dramatically in the past 9 years that I have been here. They used to play many songs from the 50’s, most of them not even rock & roll. Sinatra, Nat King Cole, etc. And Johnny O used to do a Sunday evening show with big bands and not so big bands. I didn’t listen to it too much, but I liked the idea of it. Variety. The best of all was Ron Allen’s Saturday night “Class Reunion” show. He played stuff you never hear on today’s radio.
I realize the demographic has changed and the music has changed with it, but I just can’t stand to hear it anymore.
But I do love that it’s a real local radio station with real people on the air. A radio friend is very comforting.
