ABOUT THIS EPISODE
A bigtime record executive comes back to Atlanta to do what he loves best—radio. And, a pretty crafty GM sees the possibility early on and parlays a collection of translator licenses into a new tower site and vastly increased coverage. Oh, and by the way, this little-but-mighty noncommercial station was streaming well before the other Atlanta operators saw the future. How has WCLK earned its reputation as one of America's best? It’s all here— as FoGR’s Dennis Winslow is in conversation with WCLK’s Wendy Williams and David Linton, as the station celebrates 50 years as "Atlanta's Jazz Station."
