Greaseman, WRC Washington D.C., August 9, 1973

The Greaseman took his act from WAXC, Rochester to Washington's newest Top 40 station for his first taste of major market radio. "The big greasy one," whose normal shift was late night, is subbing for Simon Trane in early evening on this recording, available in both 'scoped and unscoped flavors. Thanks to The Roddy Freeman Collection.

"... Todd (Storz) and some others were sitting around figuring out what they could do on their station and they noticed that WDSU had a program called the Top 20. And they thought if the Top 20 was successful, that the Top 40 would be even better - and that's what they said - We're going to be twice as good as WDSU 'cause we're gonna play - The Top 40."
