Clear Channel - Gallup, New Mexico

I got my first real experience with voicetracking when I worked for CC. I know "real" radio people are supposed to think voicetracking helped kill radio, but I disagree. I'd spent the first 20 years of my career doing 100% live radio, so the novelty had pretty much worn off. With voicetracking, I could do an entire show in 30 minutes. I loved it. If I didnt like how a break came out, I could do it over until it was exactly the way I wanted. On the downside, I didnt get to connect as well with the listeners, but I always felt my "tracked" shows were better than most of the stuff I did live. Plus, I could come in after hours and have the place to myself. My wife Stacie took these pictures in 2005.
