There was nothing like it! No hip hop either. And I will miss the TRUE OLD SCHOOL playlist of WGPR. Yeah, there are some who love the popularity of Baisden and Harvey on these stations, but I rarely can listen to them more than half a song or so before they start yammering and playing commecials. I guess satellite, web radio or your own MP3 collection will win out. on the FM dial outside of WGPR your not going to hear Marvin Gaye's "Sanctified Lady", nor the Bride of Funkenstiens' 10 minute long " Never Buy Texas From A Cowboy.".! No way! Without the constant commercial yammering and you could hear something besides the so called 'popular' pop and hip hop.

It was a station where you put on and hear the longer track soul classics and almost forget you were listening to radio. I will truly miss this station.ġ07.5 had a great playlist section on their web site where you could track hard to identify classic P-funk, soul and R & B classics by name. The only other station dong that was WSCX [[classic rock station).Ĭontinuing in the long music 'block' trend, 107.5 is one of the few stations you can still hear Sly and Family Stone rare cuts, Curtis Mayfeild along side Stephanie Mills, with the Funkadelics pulling up the rear. I recall the ORIGINAL Mojo [[not the later incarnations) and his incredible playlists! WGPR was and IS the only R&B station to play 20-30 minute music 'blocks' at the time.

The ultimate plan is to use it for repeats of WDMK, but who knows what could happen in the near future with that. Right now Radio One now operates the 99.9 frequency and they're testing it now with simulcasts from WCHB. Then of course that still leaves WCHB in all of this too. But really the thing is he wants to syndicate his own show, and I believe WGPR was the only independent Urban AC station left in the city where he could do that. Meanwhile besides the fact that he sort of burned his bridge with Radio One already, WDMK has Tom Joyner and Michael Baisden on during the morning and afternoons. Frankie Darcell has WMXD on lock and then Steve Harvey is syndicated on that station in the morning. His options at least are running out though.

No one's really sure where he or the rest of the crew there will end up when the dust settles. This was the third station he was on in Detroit's market [[following WJLB and WDMK). Was John Mason still doing the morning show on WGPR? He's like the kiss of death for independently owned radio stations. Last edited by Hamtragedy October-22-11 at 11:19 AM. So to Charles Johnson, Marvelous Marv, Tony Anthony, Buzz Gorie, D Wynn, and even RJ Watkins, thanks. I remember driving down the Jeffries listening one night and it had that "one of a kind, totally Detroit feel to it." Unfortunately, the time slot [[Saturday nite 10-Midnight) were prime "drivin' to the club" hours and only a handful of people remember it, or even knew it existed.

GPR also had a short-lived show in the mid-90's called "Deep Space Radio" where a handful of local, dare I call them "techno" [[just doesn't do it justice) DJs would land their own version of the Mothership and other aliens. GPR management wouldn't stand for it, and so he was finally let go. So he researched it, and actually began sprinkling bits of classical into his shows. One day, a young schoolgirl called him wanting to know if he knew of any Black Classical composers, and he didn't.

His noon-5 shift usually started out playing Sarah Vaughn, Billie Holiday, he would drop a few of his own "Mental Machine" poetry quips [[which were available at the Shrine of the Black Madonna), and usually around 2 he was in full ParliaFunkadelicment mode. His regular Saturday broadcasts ended in the mid 90's after he started playing classical music. Yep, Mojo got his start there.and his finish.
