Hy Lit died of advanced Parkinson's.

Joe died a few years ago. He was already working at WIBG when Storer Broadcasting turned it from religion to rock and roll in 1956. They said that Storer found Joe there and built the station around him.

COOL '70S CLASSICS--
Elton John~Philadelphia Freedom

The vocal line of “Philadelphia Freedom” is rather nondescript. It’s the strings that have all the interesting lines.

The two men who converted WIBG to rock and roll were Tom Donahue and Bobby Mitchell.

Donahue weighed in at around 400 pounds, and his gluttony eventually killed him. He went to San Francisco in the 1960s where he created the FM Progressive Rock format. He and Mitchell also founded Autumn Records, which hosted the Beau Brummels and the Mojo Men. They sold it to Warner Brothers for a sizeable sum.

Mitchell went on to KHJ in Los Angeles under the name Bobby Tripp. He died of leukemia there in 1968.

A lot of major names passed through WIBG in those days: Jim Stagg, Dean Tyler, Scotty Brink, Sean Casey (under his real name, Ray Gilmore), Joey Reynolds and Bill Gardner. (I worked with Gardner in Seattle in the early 1970s.)

Hey there, Kathy.

You’re welcome. Happy to add a little fun to the weekend festivities.

For some reason, I thought this song somehow applies to this quarantine situation.

"Tell Him I'm Gone (Take This Hammer)" - Johnny Cash

"Take This Hammer" - Willie Watson & The Fairfield Four

"Take This Hammer" - Leadbelly
