Jim Neill: Weekdays, 10am-3pm
Jim Neill's Jukebox Sunday, 6pm - 9pm

Radio is magical to me. If you’d told the kid with the transistor under the covers that he’d be playing music on the radio as an “adult” his head would have exploded. Playing new music and vintage nuggets every Sunday night on the Juke is my favorite three hours of the week and has been since 2008 when The River gave me a shot. I grew up in the Valley, graduated from Amherst Regional High and UMass (where I DJ’d at WMUA), DJ’d at WRSI (in Greenfield) in the late 80s, worked at record labels in Boston (moonlighting at WZBC) and Los Angeles (moonlighting at KCRW, KLSX, KXLU, and KSCA) and returned to Northampton in 2003.

For the past 14 weeks and counting, the top Billboard spot has been held by a love ballad: Alex Warren's "Ordinary."
