[IRCA] AM: No Static At All

[Les Rayburn <les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A few days ago, The Los Angeles Daily News featured an article called 
"When AM Radio Created Their own Versions of Songs". Within the article, 
there was a reference to a version of the 1978 Steely Dan hit song, "FM 
(No Static at all) that was created for KHJ. They had refused to air the 
song because it seemed like a blatant endorsement of their competition. 
So, a special version was created with the new lyric, "A-M- No Static At 
All".

I knew instantly that I had to hear that! YouTube to the rescue. Here's 
a link to a song that only Medium Wave DX'ers could truly appreciate:

You can also listen to a Podcast that contains several of these special 
versions of songs recorded for AM radio stations:
