I was just about the music, I don't remember one personality from X. I do remember that they were obsessed with Elton John around 1974-75 (not a bad call, as Sir Elton was printing money during this time period). Also, they seemed to get most records like 2-3 months later. For example, the great song "Taking care of business" by Bachmann-Turner Overdrive. For most people around the country, that was a summer of 1974 song. Not at X, they were playing it during the fall. Caused me some trouble when I wanted to buy it, but I got it eventually. Don't know if this was just X doing this all all the NYC stations. And there were some pretty good songs, that made it into the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 that they didn't play at all, like this one:



I didn't know any better at the time, but looking back, they really were not a good Top 40 station.
