The original JACK playlist would sound just at tired as you're claiming today's is.
At the time, they played songs that were completely missing from mainstream formats. Classic Rock with pure rock, and AC was becoming a slightly softer version of CHR. Their enormous success caused other stations to find ways to work that music back in. Hence, J Geils back on ROCK 101, some 80s back in QM/FM, and the very existence of LG 104.3.
