I Love Public Radio

I remember even before I was in school getting up and breakfasting with my dad with the radio merrily providing the musical accompaniment,and man I was hooked/

When the radio got to rock and roll for his taste,he switched to a news station,bleah! I was going to school with scenes of war and carnage...I needed a RADIO!
When i got my first job I got the full deal..a stereo receiver,two speaker,turntable. But the radio was failing me..how many times can one listen to Ringo's The No No Song. The dudes in the mail room soon turned me on to a left of the dial station and things were *jake* until corporate rock cherry picked the best of the second British Wave artists and the station became a Spanish music station.
But I had seen it coming and had bailed to a local NPR station WFUV,90.7.
Still left of the dial still more rockin out.
Sometimes they really go gonzo and once in what was billed as an anti-Valentines Day Party,the Dj unreleased this tune on us

I may not have recovered yet!😜
Yet another example was after playing the following tune,the disc jockey drily said,I know what you're thinking,not ANOTHER Hassidic reggae punk rock artist!
Like we need another!

Okay then,nice to spice it up and have a good dJ along for the ride.
I have another Left of the dial station in reserve but this is PRESET ONE

@Peaches: There was a station in NY that had a robo-dJ,but it was gone TOOT SWEET!
A dJ is ESSENTIAL
Peaches · F
@bookerdana: Strange, never heard of a "robo dj?!"🤔🤖
bookerdana · M
There actually was NO dJ,just a recorded voice saying this is Jack radio every so often-didn't mean jack to me! :O
