ROCKUMENTARY: OCTOBER 25, 1973

I was out of the Army in September, a red letter day for me. I had moved to Seattle to become the roommate of a red-bearded socialist professional student at the University of Washington, who was in graduate school. Through him, I met a stunning blonde, also a grad student, and – ahem! (COUGH COUGH) – life was going well.

I was working at KING, doing weekends, production work and commercial voice-overs. Soon, during a period of personnel turbulence, I would take over the all night shift. Thus would begin my meteoric rise in radio.

So what were you up to?

Cue the Rockumentary theme!

San Remo Golden Strings: “Festival Time”

This band was Motown’s Funk Brothers backed with pickup musicians from the Detroit Symphony.

#10 – Stevie Wonder: “Higher Ground”

Stevie was charting big these days. Motown was the perfect incubator for his talent.

Hi Publius!

Up till the time they got famous, Aerosmith was playing in the same dumps I was! Only THEY got famous, and I didn’t.

But that’s OK, as who would have ever guessed that i would grow up to be a FReeper! LOL!
