*** Perhaps not since John Lennon uttered the infamous remark that the Beatles were more famous then Jesus over three decades earlier had the reaction been so swift and vile. ***

"We are more POPULAR than Jesus!"

I love the smell of burning Beatles Vinyl in the morning.
It smells like....victory.

You reference people with whom I had the pleasure to work.

The "Beatle Vinyl" burning originated with station WSGN, Tommy Charles along with Doug Layton.

The story was picked up by the BBC and other outlets, some of the facts are urban legend.

Tommy Charles was the greatest pitch man for local, independent advertisers that ever graced a microphone.

Of course, I say that with all respect to Joe and Curly on WVOK.

Well, I can't forget Duke Rumor and I raise a nice glass of red wine Duke, in your honor.

For those of you that don't get it, shrug.

I remember when John Lennon made that "famous remark". My cousin burned her Beatle records. I had given up on them by that time.
