 The Morning Zoo |
WWZY and WBHX (107-1 The Boss) will present a special live broadcast event Friday July 28 from 7-9am with "The Morning Zoo 40th Anniversary Spectacular" hosted by Scott Shannon with Ross Brittain, Claire Stevens and Professor Jonathan B. Bell. The crew famously came together as The Morning Zoo when Shannon launched WHTZ (Z100) as a CHR outlet 40 years ago this week. They'll play some of the hits that took them from worst to first that summer of 1983, some classic Zoo songs, bits and even some surprise guests (Mr Leonard?). It's all part of a special edition of "Robby and Rochelle in the Morning" on 107-1 The Boss.
Brittain said, "Well. Now this'll be fun. Getting back together with the old crew and celebrating the good times we had."
VP of Programming Robby Bridges noted, "The Morning Zoo Crew created the most influential morning show in America just up the road from our studios in Secaucus, NJ and first played many of the big hits for this market that are now the Classic Rock Hits we feature on The Boss. We are lucky enough to have Ross on our air team so to bring his Zoo crew on with us for this reunion, to return Scott to the NY/NJ airwaves live and with Joe Nolan who worked with him at WPLJ is pretty special. Aircheck geeks prepare your cassette decks now, this will no doubt be a historic day in radio."
