Another howling oldies era is coming to an end at XTRA-AM. Radio legend Wolfman Jack has announced that he’ll be leaving the station because golden oldies programming clashes with XTRA’s new all-talk format. “It’s nothing personal nor are there any bad feelings,” the Wolfman growled. “They’ve been paying me a lotta money so I sure wouldn’t leave if it wasn’t the right thing all the way around.” The four-hour “The Wolfman Jack Show” had aired from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays from the Tijuana, Mexico, station since September, 1987. Wolfman Jack Productions is developing a new late-night show scheduled for live-airing across the country.
