Erie Co. man finds vintage JET Radio record in Texas
An Erie County man was visiting family in Texas, only to discover a blast from the past from back home.
Ed Rickrode was browsing an antique shop in Kerrville, Texas, when he stumbled upon an old record with a WJET label.

At first, he thought there must be a JET Radio in Texas, but then he read the words: '30 years of Erie Gold.'
He purchased the record featuring personalities and songs from the 50s through the 80s for just $9.

'And if you look on the back of the record, they have been produced by Jim Cook and they have Myron Jones, Frank Martin, and there's other ones I recognize the names on them. But when I first got it, I'm thinking Erie Gold, holy smokes that's from Erie, PA,' Rickrode said.
Rickrode generously donated the record to us here at JET24, where we'll proudly display it.
