Re: [IRCA] KABL/1460 Salinas CA is no more



Hey John, I still have all those "classics" on tape if you want to hear them all again :-)...........

While you were learning 'the army way' down on the coast I was pushing papers up at Mather AFB outside Sacramento.  Time sure does fly.

Bit more nostalgia for you and anyone else listening in....Does anyone remember the late forties classic 'It's In The Book' by Johnnie Stanley?  Haven't heard it since KSFO dumped John Gilliland many years ago but remember being really 'taken' with it back in my early teen years (wayyyyyyy before rock & roll).........

640 has had a SS keeping company with KFI the past couple nights & 670 has one too ( XESOS?)....XETNT still strong on 650 & (sorry Mike) KPUA still easily audible under KBOI.

I did my basic training with the 2nd Inf Div at Fort Ord, Calif., down the road from Salinas in the summer of 1956, and the night DJ show at KDON on 1460 provided the music all 50 of us in my platoon had to listen to. Rock, mostly bubble gum variety, was just getting started, and the song that seemed to be played almost every hour was "Transfusion" by Nervous Norvous. There also was that dratted novelty record that made sound bites out of various rock hits of the day, in satirical newscast form .. and my "buddies" in the platoon took to calling me "John Cameron-Cameron" as a result of that overworked treasure.
