KROQ/AM&FM, LEE Baby Simms, 1973

OK, An early listen to the formative years of KROQ/AM&FM

Here's the great Lee Baby Simms doing his stuff during

the launch of the ROQ's, as the AM signal merged into one (or two) giants with the FM signal, ahhh, shit, I'm confused again.

Timmy comes up with the coolest stuff!
A little background about this recording... I don't know what city you are in, or where you used to live, but I'm from L.A., California. In the early 1970's, there was an FM radio station out here by the call letters of KROQ/AM & FM. They had a wild cast of on-air jocks, including a Sunday night show hosted by Flo & Eddie (Turtles & Frank Zappa fame). On thier show, for 3 hours, they would play only bits of old records, sometimes mere seconds worth, & merge them together intertwining the records & mixing them for a segment, say about 15 - 20 minutes, then talk for about the same length of time. They would feature live guests each week. Then the station went through personnel changes, & they had to leave KROQ. Fortunately, there was also another free-form formatted FM station in L.A., KMET/FM. So, Flo & Eddie wound up there in 1974. This is thier first show on KMET/FM, with thier guest, Harry Nilsson. Flo & Eddie dominate the spoken portions of this "interview", but you can tell Harry is having fun. I believe Shadoe is operating the board.
The zip file has 3 parts, that's the way my reel to reel tapes recorded this show back when it was broadcast. I thought you might like this.
Thanx again & hope you enjoy, Timmy

We've got a real treat for you!
I got home from work last week and found a package in my mailbox from Timmy. The box contained four cassettes labeled KROQ Shadoe Stevens 1977.
Like WOW!
So here for your listening pleasure is Shadoe Stevens at the mike on KROQ in 1977. I think my favorite is side 2 of the 08/01/77 tape because KROQ is celebrating it's one year anniversary by giving away pipes, bongs and for one lucky listener a custom stereo system. So if you thought the first year was something, watch out LA!
Thanks Timmy!
