Stuck in traffic in Houston and not wanting to listen to Internet radio, I landed on The Eagle when…read morethe seek button brought me AC/DC's "Back in Black" and I was hooked. I stayed on the channel for a day or two, even enjoying it through my time in Galveston. "Houston's Only Classic Rock" continued with great tunes "Don't Stop" by Fleetwood Mac, "Sunglasses at Night" by Corey Hart, and the thumping bass of "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen. Delicious music. The Eagle is owned by conglomerate Urban One based in Silver Spring Maryland. [Review 851 of 2024 - 606 in Texas - 21881 overall]

I have listened to KRBE for years, but the segment involving the bakery and the comments made about…read morearthritis were disappointing and came across as insensitive. Humor is one thing, but making light of medical conditions that many people genuinely struggle with is not entertaining to everyone. The remarks joking about arthritis and the bakery employee crossed the line from humor into unnecessary ridicule. To their credit, Cumulus Media management did respond to complaints, removed the segment from social media and podcast platforms, and acknowledged that the content was not consistent with company policy. I do appreciate that action being taken. However, what still stands out to me is that the on-air personalities directly involved in the segment have not publicly apologized to the bakery employee, the bakery itself, or the listeners affected by the comments. A sincere acknowledgment on air and on the same social media platforms where the segment was published and discussed would have gone a long way toward showing accountability and respect. Broadcasters have a platform that reaches a large audience, and with that comes professionalism and awareness. Unfortunately, this situation changed my view of the station.

But if you ask me, Q Country seems like Nashville bubble gum pop country, where it's pop music about their truck or how they love the country. Whatever happened to real country? This station is owned by Cox Media group. It's won best Country Station in the country three times, but that's always a bit like awarding themselves the best... Clear Channel sold the station to Cox Media a long time ago, and thy've been playing fewer commercials since, but it's still a lot of commercials. They rarely have any call-in contests. Why don't they play more Hank Williams? They really play more modern country than any old timey stuff that I tend to like, personally. They play a lot of the same stuff over and over and over.

It was the same Rederick going around with other liberal news channels. Well, that info was so far from the truth as well as other networks were showing the president being very active over the Labor Day weekend. Also, a comment was made in regard to a US District court's ruling on the National Guard not being allowed in California and the president was doing things wrong, without any comment about what was going on with the crime citation and the entire subject and acknowledging it would most likely be reversed on appeal like all of their other reversals. It is also very important that people verify the information they here on different news and radio channels to, not get caught up with bad and untruthful information.

The Box! Good Morning H-Town!…read more This Houston rap station has some good stuff. It's all hip hop and R&B and rap all the time. They've got so many commercials on here that trip up my jam. I'm crankin' it real slow and low on the Tollway, and an ad for Mattress Mack comes on the air blasting some news about his mattresses when I'm just tryin' to chill. This station is good to mix with some syzzurp and Mister Pibb while they jam some DJ Screw or some classic hip hop. If you call and request tunes from your buddy's fly new solo tape, they won't play him unless your buddy is Jay Z. This station plays all the songs that the local ones generally won't play, but they keep it clean, especially when it's mostly advertisements on this station. Be sure to tune in online or at 97.9FM

KXYZ-FM first signed on February 1, 1948. It would stay on the air for five and one-half years…read morebefore being silent for about eight years. As typical of FM radio stations in the mid-20th century, the FM station usually was a hi-fi simulcast of its AM parent. During the 1960s, it simulcasted its AM parent KXYZ which played beautiful music. In the late 1960's, the format changed to Love Radio formulated by then-owner ABC Radio with the calls changing to KAUM around 1970. From 1980 through late 1986, the 96.5 FM slot for the Houston-Galveston market operated as KSRR 97 Rock FM, featuring morning radio host Moby. The station competed against the album rock format of 101.1 KLOL (and from 1986, KZFX Z-107.5 FM). From October 15, 1986, the station changed call letters to KKHT, and the hard rock-oriented format was replaced by a contemporary hit radio format known as Hit 96.5. By mid-1987, heavy competition from top 40 powerhouses KKBQ and KRBE prompted the station to morph to Adult Contemporary. The station rebranded as 96.5 KKHT From 1989, the station changed call letters to KNRJ, modifying its format to feature a heavier variety of "high-energy" dance music. This format, branded Energy 96.5, was a competitive response to two other local stations, 93Q KKBQ and Power 104 KRBE, whose Top 40 formats reflected the increasing presence of dance club-oriented tracks (catering to a then-lucrative target audience drawn to the flourishing night club scenes along Richmond Ave., and inner Westheimer Road.). These competitors featured late-night, weekend live-to-air from local dance clubs (e.g., Club 6400, The Ocean Club), where in-house DJs drew heavily from libraries of imported and small-label, extended-length modern tracks (which otherwise were seldom, if ever, heard on most commercial stations); by early 1990, KNRJ had partnered with the Tower Theater's Decadance to host its own weekend, late-night live broadcast. In early June 1990, during a morning talk show segment, the host personalities announced that Energy 96.5 would switch to an Alternative Rock format. The Alternative 96.5 re-brand was a transitional format, lasting roughly six weeks, and was promoted while a forthcoming format -- under a strategic decision by the station's owner, Nationwide Communications, Inc. -- was under preparation. A weekly play list, under an Alternative 96.5 makeshift letterhead, was distributed to local retail and media outlets, culminating on July 17, 1990.

In fact, this is the only radio station in the USA that's ever been bombed in an effort to get it off the air. Not just once, but twice the KKK bombed this station to get them to keep quiet. But this radio station isn't very good at staying quiet- what good radio stations remain quiet? They came back each time louder and better! They do a lot of political talks on this station. Get ready for a lean to the left. But my favorite part is when they play the eclectic foreign music- especially the Bollywood music. There's just something great about jamming to the sitar while cruising down Westheimer. It's Houston's home to Al Jazeera on the radio dial. The DJs are kinda special. They just run their own show, which they're interested in. It's not like they're all spinning the same music. I think they're all volunteers. I believe that if you have an idea for a show, they'll let you show up and broadcast if you ask nicely enough!
