Could this have been a precursor to “The Road Gang” show, long broadcast from WWL New Orleans? We’ll have to ask our Contributor!

Was this show a precursor to WWL’s “Road Gang”? No, more like the other way around. Charlie Douglas created the “Road Gang” show on WWL out of New Orleans in 1971. Here’s more of the history of the show from Charlie’s obit in 2011: //www.wwltv.com/news/WWL-Road-Gang-radio-show-creator-Charlie-Douglas-dies-at-78-134680543.html
I knew Gary from the time he came to the station, KILT, to the time he died. He was no poser. He drove trucks. He drove in truck rodeos. He had a following that loved him. It’s just like any show, if you like it, great, if not, there is another button on the radio.
