As you probably know, we have set our Way-Back to 1983 where we are playing our airchecks in chronological order (as we have them). Currently, in 1983, Steve & Garry are on vacation and off the air during this week so I am posting a random aircheck from the vast Stever Vault library.
On many occasions when S&G would go on vacation they would have celebrity fill-ins. This aircheck was broadcast on WLUP and Joe Walsh is stopping in the studio on the Friday before S&G are about to take the next week off. Joe will be the fill-in.
I’m not sure if this is from the AM or FM or the date of this piece. There is a phone number mention of 591-ROCK and 591-ROLL. Does that mean it is from the FM?
We have two airchecks below. In part II, Anthony stops by to take some calls with Joe.
We will return to 1983 on Monday with a lot of audio throughout the month so don’t go very far!!!

From what I remember, 591-ROCK/ROLL were WLUP-FM’s request lines. I would guess this was from the mid ’80′s, as Joe did a lot of fill-in work then, even here in Milwaukee at the old WLZR.
Definitely on the FM, when they went to the AM the number was 591-WLUP (9587).
Great to hear Joe. According to the DahlCast there may yet be a Joe Walsh podcast coming to Dahl.com! That would be sweet.
Awesome post!
