Dr. John Leader, 93/KHJ Los Angeles | July 1, 1977

93/KHJ Los Angeles

An original recording obtained by contributor Daniel Coulombe, here’s the great Dr. John Leader… on KHJ! 1977 was still a good Top 40 year for the AM band, and KHJ was still in contention, even if K100 was the hot FM at the time, and with KTNQ was about to hit…

Leader was also heard at WQXI Atlanta and KSTP in the Twin Cities, but surely never better than here on KHJ!

The Real Don Steele, 93/KHJ Los Angeles | Summer, 1967

One of the original Boss Jocks, the legendary Don Steele is heard puking his way through another fractiously tight show! Puking – thats what we in the business say about this kind of approach to 60s dj patter… you just have to listen if you don’t know what I’m talking about. Actually, its kind of a compliment used to describe RDS. Steele is remembered as one of the greatest jocks in L.A. radio history, along with Robert W. Morgan… together they helped propel KHJ to the top of the heap in 1967. Radio was just not done like this back then!

You get 17 minutes of pure KHJ heaven here, in an original AIRCHEXX recording you won’t hear elsewhere. It starts with a generous helping of KHJ news, a sports report.. and check out those car and Dr. Pepper commercials! They had Dr. Pepper in 1967? Who knew?
