Alabama Music Hall of Fame member Edgar Clayton put a future AL & Country Music Hall of Famer on the radio for the first time at this station the 1960′s. Tammy Wynette was known by her birth name at the time: Wynette Pugh. Other local talents that have passed through this station and later became known in Nashville included Sonny James, Billy Sherrill and Carmol Taylor.
