“…You can trust your car to the man who wears the star”
So begins this all-too-short, rare recording of RDS on 93/KHJ. We join things right in the middle of a commercial break (Texaco). We’re listening to KHJ in ‘71, and while the Bill Drake era is all but over, the format is intact with all the familiar Drake formatics.





This is from March, 1971. Bill Drake had two years and two months left…more than a quarter of his time at KHJ. So the Drake era wasn’t really “all but over”.
I AGREE…WAY TOO SHORT IN LENGTH BUT TOTALLY HIGH IN ENERGY…THE BEST BOSS JOCK WHO EVER CRACKED THE MIC…….RIGHTEOUS BROTHAHHHHHHHHH. GNARLY/SMOKIN.
