I'm speaking on L.A. Radio on Friday morning. The subject is 93 KHJ, one of the most important stations in the history of radio. KHJ established the wildly successful "Boss Radio" format, with noted disc jockeys like the late Robert W. Morgan and The Real Don Steele anchoring their programming schedule. I'm due to have as my guest on the dais Sam Riddle, who also hosted the L.A. music show "9th Street West." I've already interviewed Humble Harve Miller, who Steve might remember from his days as a Philadelphia top 40 DJ, as well as Bill Mouzis, the brains behind the production department who produced jingles, contest promos, and commercials. It should be a fun session!
TINA DELGADO IS ALIVE, ALIVE!!! (to find out what this phrase means, you'll have to attend - you probably still won't know)
