Sitting here on a snowy superbowl sunday I was reminiscing about listening to the radio when I was a kid. I googled and found a museum of radio history was just opened here in Cleveland. They have video on youtube that shows pictures and sound clips from the 60's that bring back memories. I feel like i've stepped into a time machine listening to WHK,KYW, WIXY, the elevator music stations. What are your radio memories? The interesting thing in the late 60's was that CKLW from Windsor, Ontario became the second most listened to station in Cleveland. One summer the newscaster said that it was hotter than hell in Detroit. It was 101 in Detroit and only 100 in Hell, Michigan. My favorite DJ's were Scot Burton, Johnny Walters, Johnny Holiday, and Len Anthony. I'll do another post and put in my favorite songs, mostly from then but some from now. Hope your favorite team wins the superbowl but since I'm from Cleveland I've got to root for the Cardinals. Catch you later. :)
