… . . . if you’re playing the Top 40, what are the ones that didn’t make it?! . . . …
Al Lohman and Roger Barkley were longtime partners on KLAC/Los Angeles. They became a morning fixture when they joined KFWB in 1967.
Westinghouse was their new employer, and corp apparently wouldn’t allow Al and Roger to put phone calls on-air live, and this was the compromise. When the live show went off-the-air at 9:30 AM, L&B would take calls for possible broadcast later.
This is rare, raw tape, the stuff that was used to make the on-air features. The initial segments are staged, including a very funny segment with newsman David Rogers. Then, real callers are featured. We have carefully removed their names. As you will hear, Westinghouse required clearance from callers before the recordings could be broadcast.
