A typical staff memo, from the desk of Joel Lind, WNIC programmer (1986-1988)
Revamping the weekend scheduling
Johnny Williams joined the airstaff in late 1985, having replaced Renee Greenwood, interim host to WNIC’s ‘Pillowtalk.’ For several weeks, Greenwood temporarily replaced Alan Almond after he left WNIC for WMJC in November 1985.
In this memo, Renee Greenwood’s “Saturday Night Rendezvous” program was added to Saturday nights, retaining the “Pillowtalk” hours, 7-12 M. As the memo suggests, “Pillowtalk” music (now with Johnny Williams) was to be heard across the Detroit airways — 7 nights a week.
While I was employed there (1983-1987), Jim Harper, morning host and program director at WNIC, left for WDTX 95.5 in July 1986. Joel Lind, replacing Harper, was hired as WNIC station programmer in May, 1986.
This was the weekend schedule. As mandated by the program director. Over 31 years ago on 100.3 WNIC . . . ‘Detroit’s Nicest Rock’
