Where were you on Thursday, May 4, 1978?
I had changed jobs, leaving the computer shop of an oil company R&D division and moving to the bank that would eventually become First Interstate, now working in L.A.’s Wilshire District rather than the San Gabriel Valley. I moved from Pomona to the Crescenta Valley, which was still a well kept secret due to the fact that I-210 hadn’t yet been completed and still dead-ended at Sunland. I had met a lady who shared my interest in classical music, so my exposure to the current scene was limited to commute time on the Glendale Freeway when I listened to KHJ.
