Record Hospital
Record Hospital is the long-running underground music program on radio station WHRB in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Founded in 1984, Record Hospital is run by the radio station's rock department and currently broadcasts on weeknights after classical music programming ends, running until the following morning when jazz programming begins. Staffed primarily by Harvard University undergraduates and alumni, Record Hospital serves the Boston area airwaves with an all-night punk and indie rock radio show with forays into noise and experimental music.
==History==
Harvard Radio began as an on-campus station in 1940 until its expanded broadcast on FM radio in 1957. Broadcasting at 95.3 megahertz, WHRB had no ongoing rock music programming until the late 1960s, and students could choose to work only for its existing departments, such as news, jazz, classical music or sports. With the mounting of American counterculture, many students pushed for the inclusion of rock music on their station. The first show, ''Good Soup'', had one hour of morning broadcast time each week in 1969. In the 1970s the show ''Midnight Rock'' ushered in the late-night program change by playing "Roll Over Beethoven" right after classical music ended for the day.
Throughout the 70s and 80s, WHRB's rock department had a number of different programs, including Rock and Roll Revelry in the 1970s, and Plastic Passions (a tribute to a song of the same name by The Cure), which began as a new wave music show in 1979. As new wave, and rock music in general, became more commercialized, WHRB's rock DJs turned to American punk and independent rock as set apart from what was played on other radio stations. Led by Geoffrey Weiss (who also gave the program its name), Jim Barber and Patrick Amory, Record Hospital began in 1984 as a small group of DJs dedicated to music that did not have a significant presence in mainstream radio or other media.
Record Hospital has continued in this same vein and plays a variety of punk, hardcore, indie pop, noise, psychedelic, no wave, and other forms of music with an underground, experimental or DIY aesthetic. In 1999 the show went global when WHRB began streaming over the Internet, and in 2009 released content to iPhone users via the WHRB "app".〔("Listen to Harvard radio station on your iPhone" (''Cambridge Chronicle'', March 27, 2009) ) Accessed 2012-04-13〕
