Lee Douglas with Elton John aka “EJ the DJ” on WXLO 99X New York | Summer 1975
Imagine your favorite rock star making an appearance as a DJ on your favorite radio station… and they let HIM do all the announcing just like your favorite DJs…. not like today where this would be some sort of quick 5 minute interview, back in 1975, WXLO 99X brought in Elton John as a promotion, and he did a couple of hours on air. For the most part, he’s left to do the announcing, which is good, but beware… our PARENTAL ADVISORY (we don’t have many on this site) is that ol’ Reginald Dwight utters a few things that are a bit racy at times. In fact, Stern listeners might blush during part of this.
This aircheck takes a bit to get into. While Lee Douglas handles the first half of this show, EJ shows up about mid way through the aircheck. But, it’s entertaining nonetheless. Definitely worth 3 of your quarter hours!
