Title A name given to the resource Clippings, WAYE Advertisements Description An account of the resource Box 8 Folder 47: "We’re at folder 47. It’s clippings clipped out of some kind of a newsprint journal like the Birmingham Times, Birmingham News, probably the Birmingham Times, advertising WAYE 1220 and also lists the jocks. Theo Bailey, interestingly enough, we were wondering whether that Theo Bailey… that previous folder that contained a mini-contract with the name Theo for commission, and then we follow it up with this, leads me to believe that contract was an AYE contract. In any event, this from 19… we’re saying it’s 1987. What’s also interesting about these clippings that when you flip over the big one on WYDE 85 (850AM) , which was a 50,000 watt station on AM, 50 still is, from 7PM to 5:30 AM at night they played black contemporary gospel, and they included Weldon Clark, Al Bell, and little Walter Anglin. From 7 in the evening all the way until 5:30 in the morning, and Mallard (Brother J) Hicks, whoever that was. So it’s clear that African American disc jockeys were on predominantly white stations as well because they could do the job and they could work and so WYDE obviously played both traditional white southern gospel as well as black gospel. The year of this clip was given away on the WYDE side, bottom center. Also in folder 47 is a small add for WAYE, we project, from 1985, because that year is mentioned in a Sears ad on the back. My guess, found in the same location as f46." 1980s Advertising Al Bell Mallard "Brother J" Hicks Sylvester "Weldon Clark" King Walter Anglin WAYE WYDE https://www.thebbrm.org/files/original/294ff3ea05bbcde98bb3166df7739059.jpg bb7de699f35aea78a53826a842154a6a https://www.thebbrm.org/files/original/a3717b08de8fef67638f24bf2ca55d1f.jpg fdf0f51df85a036880f7a065dfd204d3 https://www.thebbrm.org/files/original/595259fbe7ea451712b257795b7fe065.jpg 75440b6e55b1acca809af70ef1992c72 https://www.thebbrm.org/files/original/971cb3998ccaa196b688b7dbd22279a8.jpg a40a31f13e355d1613a613be508597e9 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Collins "Bo" Berry, Oral History Description An account of the resource Collins “Bo” Berry, a much loved horn player in the tradition of be bop jazz, “Bo” - as his many fans call him - was born in Homewood’s Rosedale neighborhood “over the mountain” south of Birmingham Alabama, and has played trumpet since childhood. His formative years will sound familiar to those growing up without a lot in the 1950’s, and with loving parents. A veteran of the second generation Birmingham jazz tradition, its roots reaching back to the early 20th Century, Bo’s commitment to believing in himself saw him travel nationally with the renowned Commodores soul group. Here, Bo shares his recollection of those times including memories of the Sand Ridge Country Club and later, Tall Paul’s “Fun Land,” both night spots in the southern Oxmoor hills of Birmingham. Most moving is his storied struggle to come off the RnB road, back to Birmingham and commit to a new genesis, focusing on mastering jazz.

The ratings show Thin Man doing AM drive and a sign-off show for WENN (WENN was a daytimer meaning signing off at sun down). They also show Shelley Stewart doing a similar set of shifts for WJLD. The three month average (Sept-Nov, 1962) actually shows evening WENN coming in 4th in listenership for the entire market.

Title A name given to the resource Ephemera Collection Description An account of the resource In 2009, BBRM staff and volunteers began the archiving of this collection, with the arranging of objects chronologically (1935 – 1995) and the purchasing of proper archival storage materials. In 2011, an oral finding aid with provenance was constructed by conversations between University of Alabama School of Library and Information Studies (UA SLIS) volunteer Lindsey Reynolds (now at University of Georgia, Athens Library) and BBRM Director Bob Friedman. In 2013 and 2014, those interviews were transcribed by UA SLIS volunteer Michael Mitchell (known affectionately as the MMT). For each object, the original finding aid conversation has been added and can be found in quotes in the description section.

Title A name given to the resource Contract, WBUL and Buffalo Rock Description An account of the resource Box 8 Folder 20: "Moving along to folder 20, which is a contract from WBUL radio for Buffalo Rock and they were charging 13 dollars a spot to Buffalo Rock, to the agency. These spots to be run Saturday on the Tom Gloor Show. Now isn’t that interesting cause finally we get some reference regarding WBUL to Tom Gloor who, as I recall, was one of the owners. The Gloor family were the owners of WBUL, but I did not know that he had his own radio show on BUL, and I might be found incorrect in my assessment of Gloor as an owner, but that’s what I recall. If not an owner then a general manager. This contract from 1984 for BUL radio. Found by Bob Friedman at the WBUL location on Bessemer Hwy in 1994 before it was demolished." 1980s Buffalo Rock Tom Gloor WBUL
