What ever happened to Ron Frazier, David Blake, Gary Mitchell, David Page and Leslie. I have fond memories of listening to Ron Frazier and David Blake when I was getting ready to go to school in the morning.

I am soooooo glad that Blondie and Q-Tip went to another radio station, sorry to hear they supposedly took away your oldies music, but hey, somebody out there took our music away too! I am over 35 and loved 97.5 and now Im loving me some 104.1, If I want to listen to the 80’s then I have c.d.’s for that purpose! Its nice to keep up with the newest music and love to listen to Blondie and Q-Tip in the morning!!!!

This is bullcrap. Im sorry, but K_Love for those who are into it ok, but to take over one of the longest running hit music stations in this area is stupid. K Love is already on 95.7 Am, its a joke. I was listeing today as i forget about it, and couldnt believe what i heard. I am 30 years old WABB is a huge part of my life, i still have tapes from the early 90’s when i was in my early teens, when i would record songs i loved, i still listen to them to remember 1994 was a good summer. My favorite DJ was named Crash, he was on at night, i remember taking the songs as i had a dual tape deck and doing my own weekly top 10. BUT this is sad.

I remember wabb from my days in high school in the late 70s to very early 80s, their slogan was “only rock and roll”. It was THE station, you just didn’t listen to anyone else, the greatest station ever! I still remember the day Ron Frazier quit live on the air. Gary Mitchell with newsman David Page, Leslie and the hounddog those were some great djs. Then they started slipping in some pop music along with their rock music, it was a sad day when a Michael Jackson song was introduced. The funny thing was they kept the same Djs. I guess the final straw for me was the day Paul Fuller, who could not survive without playing his morning dose of Freebird, introduces a Shalamar song and tries to sound excited about it. I stopped listening to them that day and never listened to them again, those are some good memories.

Joe – believe it or not, I was talking about the NEW 97.5, which is contemporary Christian music…I don’t listen to “top 40″ music…unless you are talking about the top 40 Christian songs!!

Atmoredude, you might not believe this….but….not everybody appreciates or wants to hear top 40 music. Just because you disagree with the others posting on here, doesn’t mean their comments are “disgusting”.

This thread is disgusting and shows the type of people here…97.5 starts playing Christian music and all you guys can talk about is how awful Jack FM is now. I have a suggestion…LISTEN to 97.5 now…?!?!?!?!

I agree with most people on here. I LOVED JACK. The crap on there now sucks. I have cd’s to keep me entertained, but I dearly miss JACK. I heard songs there that I had long forgotten. It was the one station my co-workers and I all agreed on. (Ages 18-76).

I get so disgusted with the music I hear on the radio these days. I was gassing up in Atmore the other day and there was a young woman fueling an SUV next to me. Her stereo was going boom boom. The only word I could undersand was a loud DELETED, and boom, boom. I made eye contact with the woman, grinned and said, that joker sure likes to DELETED, don’t he. She had the most astonished look on her face and then went and turned her stereo off and left. I cannot stand that hiphop junk. I hope the new Atmore station does not get bogged down in all that garbage.
