THE ZOO KZEW RADIO PROJECT

I was a bit taken aback as well, but then realize, a lot of music has come out since the 80's, and a lot of it you will never hear on regular radio stations. So be patient and enjoy! And as for "Echos" (hell ya)!

No commercials!

I get it. But you need to realize that KZEW can't survive as just a radio station museum. We have tons of vintage audio on the station for grins, but museums are dusty and quiet places.

Instead, we must look forward and imagine what the zoo would be like had it continued through time. We are trying to band together original fans that want to pass the great music and zoo experience on to those that were our age back then. There are many new artists that are influenced by the legends we grew up with, and they need a place to be heard, just like the new artists (now legends) needed back then.

THE ZOO is still what it always was, rock and roll with attitude, fun, and no regrets. With stuff that you won't hear anywhere else.

I invite you to hang out for a while, and I hope we win you over, but in the end, we aren't trying to impress anyone. We're the zoo! :)

Wildcard, I applaud your efforts to keep the Zoo going and yes new artists need a place to play their music. You Tube and Spotify work very well.

As a shall we say an older person from days gone by and a very much listener of KZEW 92.5 from 1971 onward until about 1985 when for me. It was time to move on.

I got into the History of the KZEW, The DJ's. How the Station got started and even the infamous 45 minutes of silence LOL. I remember the DJ's on the late night KZEW saying for all you listeners gathered around the little round table :)

What times those were and the ZEW was there with us. great memories. Sadly we can never go back to those days/nights. Ah well times move on and so do people. Good luck with your project and I may stop in from time to time. P.i.s.s.o.f.f

well, that was purdy much explained...change is invetible.....there are still.. hits out there. i would like to go with .... the old chapters that were back then. ...in any case, raise some ears...back at Scott afb///

p.i.s.s.o.f.f, thanks for your understanding brother!

What's pretty amazing is that this time around we have listeners from all over the world that tune in because they want to know what Texas rock radio was like back in the day and they are lovin' it. It's rewarding to be able to give them a glimpse of our roots.

Have a great day and rock on!

The rebirth and new range of this station impresses, surprises and astonishes me daily. I think of myself as an above average versed audiophile… then the Zoo throws a curveball right to my ear! I hear minor hits I had completely forgotten about, but enjoyed, and new hits that lead me to following the newer acts that definitely belong on the Zoo v.2024.

Vintage station clips are the familiar sauce on a fantastic plate of enchiladas. Keep rocking’, everybody. And be sure to SUPPORT the Zoo with your dollars, big or small, to keep it commercial-free.

Just thinking about KZEW brings back a lot of memories. It was a different time in the World. Living in Texas the best. The very first music I ever heard on KEZW was when I worked in a shop and one of the Guys listened to KZEW and the very first song I heard?

Echo's off of the Meddle LP. After that there was no turning back. The Kzew was the only station listened to 24/7 until mid 1985. and yep there were many nights my friends and I were gathered around the round table with KZEW. what a time that was.
