@jespah,
WKRP in Cincinnati (TV Series 1978–1982)
season 4 intro
Not sure how well this fits but it has a radio in it.
@Real Music,
One of my favorite sitcom intros, ever.
And can't forget Freddie!
A good 40+ years ago, Harry Chapin (he was from the town right next to the one where I grew up) sang about being a DJ at WOLD:
Parliament - P Funk (Wants to Get Funked Up)
(1975)
Lyrics to the song's intro:
Quote:Good evening
Do not attempt to adjust your radio, there is nothing wrong
We have taken control as to bring you this special show
We will return it to you as soon as you are grooving
Welcome to station W-E-F-U-N-K, better known as We-Funk
Or deeper still, the Mothership Connection
Home of the extraterrestrial brothers
Dealers of funky music
P.Funk, uncut funk, the bomb
Coming to you directly from the Mothership
Top of the Chocolate Milky Way, 500,000 kilowatts of P. Funk-power
So kick back, dig, while we do it to you in your eardrums
And me? I'm known as Lollipop Man, alias the Long-Haired Sucker
Didn't know what time it was, the lights were low
I leaned back on my radio
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll
"Lotta soul, " he said
Then the loud sound did seem to fade
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
That wasn't no DJ, that was hazy cosmic jive
The Ramones ask, Do You Remember Rock 'n Roll Radio?
The origin of the Quiet Storm radio format.
It's just the same old show on my radio, according to Selecter.
I want to tell you 'bout Texas radio and the big beat
Comes out of the Virginia swamps
Cool and slow with plenty of precision
With a back beat narrow and hard to master
Gettin' robbed
Gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up
Broken-boned
Gettin' had
Gettin' took
I tell you, folks
It's harder than it looks
It's a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll.
