The Magic Christian died in a VA hospital in Iowa on the 4th of July. He suffered from a terminal illness which got him in the end.
Crank up your speakers you are about to hear something very special. When Fairbanks broadcasting launched a new station, the best talent from all the radio stations in the group were brought to the city. In this case it was Philadelphia, and the occasion in 1976 the launching of all new WIBG. The promos were voiced by the late Chuck Riley. The guy who follows Dallas legend Larry Dixon is none other than the Magic one. The final voice on the tape is the guy who was PD at the launch Chuck Knapp. The full tape is available at Philly Radio, a tribute site to WFIL and WIBG. This is an MP 3 file so whatever program that you use as a default for playing mp3s will open when the file downloads.
