This is WAPL Backtracks for April 17th, 2025.

Here’s some of the songs that were new to Northeast Wisconsin this week in WAPL history…

WAPL first played Stabbing Westward’s “Save Yourself” this week in 1998.

The first time you ever heard Def Leppard on northeast Wisconsin radio was this week in 1980 when WAPL started playing “Hello America”.

A longtime area favorite was first heard this week in 1983 when WAPL first played “Who’s Behind the Door?” by Zebra.

LOST CLASSIC:  Remember GTR? It was 1986 when WAPL started playing “When the Heart Rules the Mind”.
