      KLUV is now using resings of classic Z100 jingles. I believe this is the first time in a good while that JAM has actually been on the air in Dallas. And I think this also leaves KRTH as the only CBS Classic Hits station that’s *not* using JAM.

        Any off-air or stream audio examples available perhaps? (geo-blocking sometimes a problem for many JMers).

        Does sound a bit like the “Tony Blackburn effect” – play the oldies with jingles more contemporary to when the music actually originally aired, for a more “authentic atmposhere” :)

            Here you go. I’ve heard a mix of Flame Thrower and Skywave so far. Someone on Radio-Info.com also said they heard the DJ cut from Warp Factor, but I wasn’t able to catch that yet.

            Hopefully these will last a good while – it seems like KLUV changes their jingles and/or slogans every 6 months or so. I remember they kept switching back and forth between TM and Tony Griffin.

                            I loved these cuts. Jam at their best. Many thanks MJB and KC for posting.

                              Awesome sounding jingles. I wish we had this (station) in the UK.

                                KLUV is on air with the new JAM jingles.
                                Never thought I’d say this but nice move CBS (for a change).
                                Don’t touch the Johnny Mann singers on KRTH though :/

                                  I don’t think those will change at least as long as Jhani Kaye is the PD there. He’s got a lot of respect for the station’s (and KHJ’s) heritage.

                                  Come to think of it, all the CBS Classic Hits stations are airing vintage top 40 jingles now. “Authentic atmosphere” indeed.

                                  By the way, I think the first cut on kcmike’s montage is actually from TM – a sonovox take on one of the cuts from KLUV’s last custom. I’m guessing Ken Justiss did the sonovox on there?

                                      right on so many points! even though kay’s the big jam fan, we thought he’d switch krth to jam jingles, but he respect khj and KRTH’s longtime standards with johnny mann, and could totally understand that fact. i think jim ryan took notes from kay as well. the prediction we had on him a few months ago didn’t come true!

                                        the second jam go-round, don’t forget they were on a cross-town top40

                                        Actually, if you want to count 100.3 Jack FM’s usage of “Skywave” back in 2004 (and a few other JAM cuts that I can’t remember off the top of my head at the moment), this is the 3rd go-round for “Skywave” in the Dallas-Fort Worth market.

                                        But who cares!!! It’s great to hear JAM, especially in their own backyard.

                                          Having just returned from Dallas the new JAM package really works. KLUV has so much energy with the classic re-sings.
                                          Also Lite FM and their new Reelworld jingles are refreshing.
