I heard the old song 'Jack and Jill' by Raydio today and whenever I hear that, it only makes me think of the time my parents and I flew from Philly to see friends in Clemson, South Carolina back in 1978. When we got to their place in the evening, the first thing I did was take out my radio to see what I could get on AM and that song was playing on 77 WABC which had a strong signal too.
'Raydio' is the perfect name for an artist of a song that brings back DXing memories, huh?
Another example from around the beginning of that same year is the song 'I Go Crazy' by Paul Davis which will always remind me of the time I finally heard KFI in New Jersey.
That was the song playing before I heard the "64 KFI" ID.
'Earache My Eye' by Cheech and Chong is another one that comes to mind and that reminds me of the late summer 1974 when I would listen to CKLW at night.
They played that a lot and I didn't hear it on the local stations.
So are there old songs that remind you of DXing above all else when you hear them now?
