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.

KROQ Hollywood Nightshift 9/10/78

Here's a rare trick, or uh, maybe treat, if you prefer...

The Classic Sunday night show, on the ROQ's of Los Angeles,

known as The Hollywood Nightshift.

With only 2 of the usual 3 performers.

Here we have Michael C. Gwynne & Philip Austin blindly

going through the motions

without their sidekick: Frazer Smith on this night.

Howdy, my name is Timmy...

Riff was good enough to allow me to make some comments & place a couple postings here.

And, I thought it would be a grand idea to let all the visitors actually see what

these KROQ D.J.'s look like...

Beginning with Sir Rodney From Bingenhiemer

who began his tenure at The ROQ's of Los Angeles in 1976,

& is still there to this very day!

Above he is seen posing with the band KISS,

next, Rodney is caught in action at his "Rodney's English Disco" sometime around the mid 70's
