The Infinite Dial

When I first heard Clear Channel's KOLZ (Kolt Country) Cheyenne, Wyo., in the late '90s, it was a very different sounding station: more traditional (as you'd expect, given the market), and playing some interesting older library titles at a point when the "hits and legends" approach wasn't as widespread. It was, in short, a market leader that sounded like the market. KOLZ didn't stream its signal at the time, so I hadn't heard them since. But I found them streaming again this morning and am happy to report that Tuesday at the station is double-play "Chris LeDoux'sday," something that couldn't possibly work in many other markets. "Whatcha Gonna Do With A Cowboy," LeDoux's big duet with Garth Brooks was indeed one of the songs, but so was "Call of the Wild," which I didn't know. They're worth hearing here.
