blimp

We don't know of any radio station that has ever given away their own archives of music. Then again, there's never ever been a radio station like the Blimp. From our days in the Litchfield double-wide to our time in Auburn, to our 30 years here at One City Center, we've been fortunate to amass one of the largest collections of Rock and Roll on the planet. And this month we have been giving away to you...one album at a time! Original vinyl that has been played on WBLM turntables for 20, 30, sometimes 40+ years! Not to worry, we bought all these classic albums on 8-track, cassette, vinyl, CD, Blue-Ray, DAT, and any other way we could have over the years, so we still multiples of EVERYTHING. Now, the original vinyl we are giving away may not be in the best, most PRISTINE shape, but they are well worn and well-loved....just like all of us!

Thanks to all of you who have purchased the new "vintage" WBLM T-shirt. And even bigger thanks for sharing your photos on our Facebook page of you rocking the new T.

If you ever come to the WBLM Studios here at One City Center in Portland, the first thing that will blow your mind is all the cool posters, plaques, and platinum and gold records we have on the walls. Heck, we come in every day and we still pinch ourselves on how cool it is! We've also accumulated some pretty cool autographs over the years from some of our favorite artists. Even better than the autographs are the stories that go along with them

And you thought you had gone through every puzzle in the closet. WRONG! Here's the coolest puzzle of all. The WBLM Classic Rock and Roll Blimp Puzzle. Thanks to Epuzzle you can take a whack at putting all the virtual pieces together.

Tired of the gloomy weather this week? Us too. So maybe it's time to bring out "Wet Dream.". It's a silly song we have been playing on the Blimp Morning Show on every rainy day for over 25 years. For those that missed it...sorry and here ya go...

This weekend things WILL get loud on the Blimp with our Ultimate Guitar God Weekend. Keep listening for classic riffs all weekend long from all your favorite Guitar Slingers...Clapton, Hendrix, Santana, Van Halen, Garcia, SRV and more. And help us settle the age-old question: Who IS the Ultimate Guitar God of Rock Here are 100 Classic riffs...

Let's decide this once and for all. We've been going back and forth with another morning show in New Hampshire for the past week about who has the better beer.

All month long you can win a Blimp Royalty Check

Brian Gagnon and his Camp of Rock kids made their annual appearance on the BLM Morning Show today. They did a killer version of "Hit Me With Your Best Shot." And we set a new Blimp Studio record with over 30 musicians playing in the studio at one time!  ...

The Blimp was all over the place this past weekend. From The Topsham Fair to Portland Reggae Fest and everywhere in between. Many of us parents, especially with daughters, (hint) found ourselves in this New England stronghold. You may have been here before in a VERY different circumstance...

Happy Tuesday. We have cracked into the "B" Section of the mysterious Blimp Archives. There seems to be lots of controversy about the exact location of this behemoth of legendary music. Is it real? Where is it in One City Center?  Here's a documentary from 2010...
