WLAC Newsradio 1510 AM, Tennessee s news, traffic and weather station was one of the nation's first radio stations, taking the air in 1926. Created as a promotional venture and publicity medium for the Life And Casualty Insurance Company, WLAC originally operated part-time and on a non-commercial basis. Originally operating with 1,000 watts of AM power, WLAC became one of 64 radio stations in America licensed to operate as a Class 1 'Clear Channel,' with 50,000 watts of power. This enabled WLAC's programming to reach parts of five states in daylight hours. After dark, WLAC's massive 'skywave' signal blanketed 28 states and several foreign countries. Back in the 1950s, when white teenagers were just beginning to discover that Pat Boone's version of 'Ain't That A Shame' was not the original, WLAC was beaming rhythm and blues and gospel music to millions of young listeners late into the evening hours. Not Perry Como, not the Chordettes, certainly not Pat Boone WLAC was streaming the strange, new, and wonderful tones of Chuck Berry, Jimmy Reed, Lowell Fulson, Lightning Hopkins, Muddy Waters, Little Junior Parker, The Spaniels, Sonny Boy Williamson, Howling Wolf, and Etta James. WLAC 1510 AM was among the few radio stations that helped launched rock n roll.
