WMSP—The Epilog

March 27, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

This is the final installment of the WMSP series that began here. So where are they now? The Market Square Presbyterian Church sold the station in 1988. There is a Facebook page of former WMSP volunteers, which yet again suggests that I made a mistake when I closed my FB account for what I thought … Continue reading WMSP—The Epilog

Farewell to WMSP

March 26, 2023March 30, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

This is the seventh and penultimate installment of the WMSP series that began here. AJ used to have a tape recorder running at his home to capture all the shows he hosted, and then he’d edit them to remove most of the music, keeping just his spoken introductions, etc. It sounded like a good idea, … Continue reading Farewell to WMSP

AJ and JT Go to NYC

March 25, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

This is the sixth installment of the WMSP series that began here. I didn’t know exactly how old AJ Moulfair was, though I assumed he was about ten years older than I was, which would have made him about 39 in 1978 when we met. I did pick up that he had gone to Columbia … Continue reading AJ and JT Go to NYC

Other Notable WMSP Folks

March 23, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

This is the fifth installment of the WMSP series that began here. During the year I spent at WMSP, I got to know a bunch of the people there, some of whom I can put a name to, and some of whom I cannot. Joyce Tracy is one of the former. She was a woman … Continue reading Other Notable WMSP Folks

A Very Special Episode

March 22, 2023March 30, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

This is the fourth installment of a series. Catch with Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3. One of the downsides of hosting the Tuesday edition of Musical Offering was that it already had a programmer, a lovely woman whose name I no longer recall, nor can I find her name on any of the saved … Continue reading A Very Special Episode

April, 1979

March 21, 2023March 22, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

This is the third in a series that began with Part 1 and Part 2. Before I began searching through the boxes of saved letters and stuff, I’d have sworn that my volunteer career as a classical host on WMSP lasted nearly two years, but documents don’t lie. I didn’t get my Third Class License … Continue reading April, 1979

AJ and JT Go to Philly

March 20, 2023March 22, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

This is the second part of a series that began with Part 1. I can’t find anything to help me date when Pat introduced me to AJ Moulfair, nor can I recall anything specific that can help me assign an approximate date to it. Best guess is that it was sometime in the fall of … Continue reading AJ and JT Go to Philly

AJ and Patrick and George – Oh My!

March 19, 2023March 22, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

My memories of my time in Harrisburg don’t conform to reality. I lived there for three months shy of three years and it seems like I couldn’t possibly have done all the things I remember doing in such a short time. But my memory is wrong. For example, relying on my memory, I didn’t think … Continue reading AJ and Patrick and George – Oh My!

246 East 49th Street

March 18, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

One of the many surprises that I found as I’ve been going through the boxes of collected stuff is an empty envelope from my Harrisburg days with the return address of 246 East 49th Street, NYC. Now who could that be? It took me a moment but of course the answer came to me. It … Continue reading 246 East 49th Street

I Don’t Know Jack

March 16, 2023 / jt / Leave a comment

As I continue to sort through boxes and boxes of saved odds and ends from decades of my life, including such quotidian objects as telephone bills and bank statements (not, I hasten add, all statements, just a random few here and there), I am frequently stymied as I encounter names of presumed friends or acquaintances … Continue reading I Don’t Know Jack
