As we get closer to our 50th Anniversary, we went back in the archives and blew off the dust on some of the original WXIL recordings that helped us get our start. Hope you enjoy! 

Remember waking up in the morning, turning on the radio, and then hearing Joe introduce your new favorite song? Here's a little blast from the past of WXIL's early days! 

Ready to hear another piece of radio history? This clip of Kelly West will take you back to you first discovered some of today's music legends. 

"Uncle" was not his actual first name. But. You have to admit, Uncle Dougger always felt like the fun uncle at Thanksgiving when he came on the radio. We hope you enjoy this clip we found of him!
