NOT New York City.
The media capital of the world has nothing you can listen to without an internet connection. Shame really.
WLIR was the best but it was bought by Univision.

Ah, it's changed..... all over really..... Nabisco is still there though. Areas though that you probably didnt really pay much attention to back then are lively spots now ~ Northern Liberties (just north of Spring Garden on the East Side) is a HUGE neighborhood for 90's yuppies and the hood has spread north into Fishtown/Kensington.... OC is a great island, lotsa great spots over that way, I used to live over there as well.....

NE Ohio has nothing anymore, 'cept some college radio. WCSB, WRUW, and WJCU. Clear Channel has done what it does here. There is one classic rock station out of Youngstown, WYFM, 102.9 that has a neat format. They don't play anything newer than 15 years old. So every year they add the a new set of tracks to their library. Its like the old songs are new again so to speak. They still go deep with flairs of good old AOR. They stream on the net. http://www.y-103.com/
Ever since WMMS got caught stuffing the Rolling Stone ballot box, we've gone from the best to well, friends don't let friends listen to Clear Channel. There was a time when the claim of the R&R Capital of the World might have been true. Springsteen and Bowie and many other bands in the 70's broke out nationally from Cleveland. Now they are only distant memories about the town where the "Weekend Never Ends".
