Phil Parker has been holding down mornings at Bismarck, North Dakota’s legendary KFYR for many years. He was there during the 1990s, went away for a few years, then returned in August, 2004. Most people don’t know that prior to his arrival at K-FIRE, Phil hosted mornings in the Twin Cities. He recently became a fan of our little website and was kind enough to submit this aircheck, taken from the original KLXK studio skimmer tape:
“OK, this is early 1989. Mornings on KLXK, Classic 93.7. Studios were on Cliff Road in Eagan, the old U-100 studios. Had this gig for one year, blown out, and went to Bismarck. You’ll laugh at the first break, as I intro a song “direct from compact digital disc!”
Also on here is Dan Barreiro, who called in twice a week to talk sports while he was with the Strib. (long before he was a radio star). Program Director was Toby Hart and station was owned by Entercom.
