I usually really enjoy listening to this radio station. But that comment that whoever is on there right now about the Chinese balloon not being shot down and Alec Baldwin was available was really in poor taste. somebody died. In other words, it went over like a lead balloon. read more

It is a consistent classic rock radio station. That is my go to. It's also available on Amazon's Alexa echo devices.

I grew up around Motown, funk, soul, rhythm and blues, jazz and disco. So when it came to rock, I could take it or leave it. Well, the older I get the more I can take it. Rock music was always around me unwittingly penetrating my brain. Even though it just wasn't something I could dance to. And as much as I would often tune rock out, I still found myself moving my head or tapping my feet to the music. This radio station fills the bill when it comes to classic rock. From AC/DC to ZZ Top. No obscure bands here! Only the best and most popular music from the 60's to the 90's. Great variations to where you are rarely bored. Memories galore come flooding back! So, if you are musically eclectic like I have become, I recommend setting this station to your radio tuner of top favorites. It will make your radio surfing much more rewarding! read more

Can't stand it anymore. All I want to hear is music - the commentary is...whatever there's some funny moments. But lately these leftist agenda commercials being bombarded at EVERY COMMERCIAL BREAK ARE OVERWHELMINGLY ANNOYING!!!! So done with it. I'll just pay for music in cash. The price of the continual attempts to brainwash me are too high to pay anymore. These aren't even honest political commercials, they're the sneaky underhanded ones with fear mongering and disclaimers about not being authorized by any candidate... But let's face it, any candidate that plays along with this kind of crap isn't one we want in office. Enough of the obvious leftist/liberal agenda at that station. I'm done. CLICK - off. read more

I mostly listen KSEG HD radio that I feed my audio into long range BLUETOOTH 5.0, as I listened to CD's quality onto my stereo headphones throughout whole yard without any drop out. I didn't care for Radio.com App because of poor audio with small speakers sound. I also can tune in KSEG on FM Radio App, that has better audio quality than Radio.com. I still like HD Radio as over the air is the best. read more

At my old job, which was located in a warehouse deep in West Sac, we could only get in two stations without making a mile-long paper clip chain: The Eagle, and KSFM 102.5. As much as I love a station whose entire rotation consists solely of "Shawty Lemme Buy U A Drank", "Luv In This Club" and "Umbrella (ella! ella)!", I usually opted for the Eagle if only for the fact the they never repeated the same song in one day. Also, Two-fer Tuesday is always awesome, no matter what. Since I had no internet access at this job, I had to find other ways to properly dick around on the clock. Eventually, I started calling the DJ's to request Cheap Trick and T.Rex and shoot the shit about music. I really don't know who the sadder party was in these equations, but it was fun times and one of the few good memories I have from my last place of bidness. read more

Wow, ok I read through all the reviews that go back 12 years. Seems nothing has changed, I see the same comments back then as I do now. With all of the great "classic" rock music that's out there from the 60's through the 80's, the Eagle playlist is SO LIMITED and REPETITIVE. It's like having hundreds of restaurants to dine at, but eating at McDonald's every day. Shame that the old AOR format of the late, great Earth Radio KSFM 102.5 (RIP - I still remember the day it was killed by disco in '79) isn't in use anymore. So sick of hearing the same crappy songs day in and day out. But that's corporate radio for you, it's the same across all stations anymore. I love my Pandora. read more

Once upon a time, you could count on radio stations to play the greatest in music. When Rock & Roll ruled the airwaves, and the DJ was who controlled the output. Now, it's all corporate, the DJ's have been neutered, and music is played within a specific format. With the advent of the Internet (and Internet radio stations), and satellite radio, it's failing. There's an old DJ rule which states that the more a station has to bribe to have listeners, the more it's going to suck. "The Eagle' is #1 proof of this. constantly playing the same 50 songs over and over, listeners are dropping off like poisoned flies. So to try to win back listeners (and advertising dollars), they are now bribing listeners with $100 bucks an-hour on-the-job contests (usually lasting an hour or two, until the next sucker makes their claim). If you're into listening to the same two Lynrrd Skynrrd songs every day, and listening to a bunch of corporate-whipped, burnt-out DJ's who saw better days and freedom in the 60's & 70's, check out The Eagle. read more

I've been listening to Eagle 96.9 lately After a friend got me into it. I love that the songs are a mix of great classics like the rolling stones plus music from the 90's that I enjoyed back then but don't get to listen to as much as I'd like. Sometimes there are talk shows and long commercial breaks, which usually cause me to tune out then tune back in later. Some of the commercials are really dumb but this is not Eagle's fault. Eagle 96.9 gives you a variety of the best classic rock and they have great free streaming online which I have grown to love. read more

Yay, classic rock!! I like classic rock and this station, but they could do a lot better. +1 because they play good songs I like most of the time -1 because they tend to play song by certain themes or alphabetize them...why? Rock and roll is supposed to be random and free-forming, not structured!!! +1 because Mark and Brian are hilarious and get you through the morning drive to school or work -1 because sometimes they play bands that aren't even classic rock...like Dave Matthew's Band for example. How is that possible?! read more

I had a love-hate relationship with this station. I like that it played classic rock, but I hated how it was managed. It seemed like they went to commercials every 15 minutes and then would come back and play some piece of garbage tune. It's also funny that they advertise aplenty for Satellite or HD Radio or whatever it was(or maybe both, they gave up after a while, good move), but ultimately this service would pull listeners AWAY from the Eagle. Seriously, did management not realize this? Dur dur, let's advertise a product that will make us LOSE customers but earn us a couple bucks in the process because we're so financially poor. Sometimes these commercials were just so out of hand. One time the DJ who comes on at 10 AM said "get ready to rock 'n' roll" and then went to a commercial. Really?? Oh yeah, around the 4th of July, I think it actually began a week before, they thought it would be a GREAT idea to play ONLY American bands until Independence Day. In case you're not strong on classic rock, this means no Zeppelin, no AC/DC, no Stones, no Beatles...pretty much none of the bands that DEFINE classic rock 'n' roll. Needless to say, somewhere in the middle they realized how dumb of an idea this was and "snuck" some of these bands in. The playlists...eh. It's classic rock so obviously I love the selection, but, you know, AC/DC did put out many other great songs other than "Back in Black." Oh yeah, and this station syndicates the Mark and Brian Show. Who can listen to this crap? Honestly. These guys are two of the more boring eggheads I've ever had the misfortune of listening to. "hur hur Mark and Brian in the morning, Mark&Brian, Mark&Brian, Mark&Brian dur dur dur." I still stream the station in(I'm streaming it now, in fact[but I don't stream Mark and Brian cause they suck]) because I love listening to radio and the stations in San Diego stink. As far as I can tell, the station isn't out of control with commercials anymore, so that's good, and it IS classic rock, so that's always rockets. So...you may get frustrated while listening to this station, but it does have its strong points(mostly just the music). read more

I mostly love the music on the Eagle but every now and then they play David Bowie's "Lets Dance" and I want to gag! It's not classic rock, it's not a toe tapper and it's just plain clumsy! If I never hear it again in my lifetime I'll die happy! Stop playing it! It's horrible! read more

**Update 8/310/10** The Eagle is taking our suggestions seriously. Just last week I turned it on and Bob Dylan, The Doors, and Credence were all in one hour set! The next day had a great mix including Jefferson Airplane, the ubiquitous Led Zep and what the..Stevie Ray Vaughn! **Up one star!** I grew up listening to the Eagle. Alice's Restaurant on Thanksgiving is a family tradition, so thanks. I find Mark and Brian pretty funny. Much better than Rob, Arnie and Dawn!! Santana, Deep Purple, the Eagles, Family Stone, Hendrix, Joplin, Airplane, Stones, Buddy Guy, Zepplin, Beatles, Cream, Clapton, Joan Jett, CCR, Van Morrison, The Doors - all the CLASSIC ROCK songs of the day - was the music of yesteryear on the Eagle. Apparently classic rock is now defined as anything a 45 year old listened to in his 20s. Eagle, it is not. Bon Jovi ain't classic rock. Guns and Roses, Journey (gag), Van Halen, Foreigner, hell, they ain't classic. They're dated. Love Bob Keller, Kat Madru, Tom Nakashima. Love the 60s show, but for the love of god don't relegate it to just the mornings! The recent top 50 rock songs showed that people still love the real rock music, not this hair band of the 80s and late 70s shit. Eagle, include more CLASSIC ROCK and less CRAPTASTIC NEW JERSEY DRIVEL. If a song has a thin guitar, it doesn't belong on a Classic Rock Station. I can't stand Stevie Ray Vaughn, but I'd welcome him back in a heartbeat. When Poison and Boz Scaggs start getting played, I'm sorry Bob, but even Chef Ptomaine isn't enough to keep me. read more

I still love this radio station. They play the best classic rock out there. nothing compares.. read more

I am a fan of classic rock, I love bands like Led Zeppelin, Boston, Cheap Trick, Rolling Stones, Rush, the Who, etc. However, the Eagle is typical of the corporate radio station larvae. You cannot go a half hour without hearing Tom Petty, Heart, ZZ Top, or .38 Special. They have played these bands out to the point that they are not cool anymore. Aside from some occasional lunch time specials or holiday weekend countdowns, there is nothing cutting edge about the Eagles format. On the surface I would really like a station like this, but after the same monotony over and over again, I rarely turn my dial here. I prefer 104.1 The Hawk, with a fuzzy signal to the Eagle. I would like to see a more local/independent feel. Also reach into the catalogs and play some inspiring stuff. read more

I like their dj's but the problem with this station is it seems like they have a play list of 100 songs. If I hear "American Pie" one more time I think I'm gonna puke. read more

The review results from dealing with the advertising deparatment, not about the music choices. There was an ad played on their stations but when I contacted the company being advertized they claimed they knew nothing about it. When I called the radio station to find out about this ad played on their station, I was transferred and then hung up on abruptly. Seems someone is misleading the public, or if a mistake was made, no one is willing to admit it. Do we have to start recording radio ads now? read more

I love classic rock, and when I first discovered "The Eagle" after moving to Sacramento, I loved this station, but as time went on I grew wary of their selections and even more tired of the DJ's and their inane chatter. Oh do I miss the glory days of 98.5 and 92.3 down in the South Bay. They have long commercial breaks, they talk over the music, and generally they just talk too much. There is no way you can listen to it in the morning without being subjected to some talk show, and the ride home is almost as bad. I pretty much listen to my own music, but if I must listen to the radio, now that I've found it, usually I'm on 94.7 for music, otherwise its NPR or the classical station out of Sac State. read more

Update: They got rid of their weekend shows, and seem to be doing little more than having contests at times.

I always listen to you guys while I'm in the kitchen. Cooking doing dishes. Tonight I caught the Bob Seager special. At first I thought, what's this? Excellent. read more

I been Listening 2 Eagle 96.9 4 about 20 Years. I also listen 2 Hawk, KFOX, Bone and The Band, Sometimes The Eagle is 2 Mellow, but I like it The Best still. KOZZ from Reno is Awesome 2. I can not Believe U get in California's Valleys. The River from Santa Rosa is Good 2. Just 2 Many 97.7's. I do not like Jack or it D.J's. I never heard The Thunder 100.7 read more

This station doesn't know the meaning of classic rock. They play the same tired songs all the time. If I had to listen to ( you give love a bad name) by Bon Jovi one more time,I will jump off a bridge. Won't listen to this garbage any more. Thank goodness for Spotify and my massive CD collection. read more

Was at a Fathers day bbq yesterday where a conversation on Classic Rock radio in Sacramento came up, or really the lack of. The Eagle it was agreed upon was once a good classic rock station but now a classic pop station. The same playlist loops everyday, need to reboot to play classic rock. Classic rock is the talent/music that made rock classic, true musicians. The Eagle has some of the best classic rock DJs in radio, the station manager should use their rock music knowledge and let them be DJs, heck, they have Bob Keller, cut him loose from peddling commercials and let him share his knowledge/music. The MTV 80's music the is Eagle is looping was a dark time for rock music, all show little talent and that explains why Country music was so popular at that time. Mr. Keller, have you ever thought about filling the void in Sacramento by starting a true classic rock station, a station independent of programed programing, something like what's going on in Modesto on 104.1, Sacramento badly needs it. read more

Really!?! This station is the extension of 98.5, KZAP, and 102.5, KSFM, Earth Radio 102! Bob Keller has been spinning vinyl since the late 70's, early 80's. The Sac Valley needs a station like this for all the Rockers who were partying back then and are tired of the crap being put out there today. There is a reason the rock of then is still popular today. It is good! Chef Ptomaine Rocks!! I'll take teh Blue Plate Special! read more

I usually turn off the radio or change the station at 14:00, but this week I didn't. I want to tell Derek Moore how much I enjoyed his song selection and variety. I heard some songs this week that I haven't heard in a long time. Not only did he mix it up the artists well, he even played versions to some songs that you don't hear much [Baba O'Riley]. Great job Derek!!!!! read more
