BOS3 to the Kings (not to be confused with the aforementioned Kinks),


Db trivia time: looking at the Db, there are several 'king' groups.  And either they have been played once or they've been played at least 5 times.  Can you guess which is which?

King Biscuit Boy
King Crimson
King Floyd
King Harvest
Kings
Kingsmen

and here's yer Lennon clip into  -- UGH! "People Who Died".. for shame, Dave -- seriously.
I was on-the-air the night Lennon died, ended up doing the overnight, playing all Beatles/Lennon and network news updates until sunrise. I recall taking calls from listeners whose clock radios went off at 5am or 6am tuned to our station, who woke up not knowing what all the fuss was about.

I was on the air in NJ the night Lennon died, ended up doing the overnight, playing all Beatles/Lennon and network news updates until sunrise. I recall taking calls from listeners whose clock radios went off at 5am or 6am tuned to our station, woke up not knowing what all the fuss was about.

Wow!  I was in NYC and heard the news from Vin Scelsa. And of course WNEW-FM went into several days of all-Beatles-all-the-time programming.

I have Vin Scelsa on tape from that night, from WNEW-FM's 20th Anniversary retrospect in 1987
