Presenting a few clips of Richard Neer on WNEW FM New York from 1975. He was a veteran of the progressive rock format. He helped establish WLIR FM in 1970 as a free form station in New York and then he was on WNEW FM for 25 years starting in 1971. Neer also wrote a book called the Rise and Fall of Rock Radio. He ‘s one of those rare announcers that transitioned from music to sports talk and he can still be heard on WFAN in New York.

The clips are short but each has a bit from Richard Neer. The last clip also has an interesting ad for Crawdaddy magazine and an ad for Pioneer stereo equipment featuring Elton John. The last two clips are mostly from Sept 21, 1975 based on the newscast included in the final clip.
