So, there’s a new radio station in town. It’s called Wild 107.7 and it plays top hits.
At the moment Rihanna is singing about how she really doesn’t want someone to stop the music. We’re streaming the station live from their website, www.wild1077.com.
Wild is owned by Combined Communications, which also owns The Twins 98.3, KSJJ 99.7, Clear 101.7 and 1110 KBND. Combined also used to publish Gusto, which is now Central Oregon Magazine.
We’re happy to welcome Wild into the media fold, but have to say we are a little sad about the loss of the ’70s and ’80s funk music Combined was playing on 107.7 in the short interim between getting that spot on the dial and launching Wild.
A station devoted to songs like “Super Freak?” Now, that’s something we can get behind.
