… the temperature in downtown Ozark is 92 degrees under mostly cloudy skies …
[Description by Greg Barman]
California Radio Summer 1977 was only part of my trip from Chicago to California and back in 1977. I was a young man in-between radio gigs and had a burning desire to hit the open road and see the West.
I rolled tape from Des Moines to California, and through the desert southwest to Memphis. The car was a 1977 Chevy Vega equipped with a standard Delco radio. I tapped off the speaker leads and patched into a Sony cassette recorder. Somehow, it sounded pretty good. After the trip, I dubbed off selected sets and started cutting. I edited everything into three segments.
This is part three. Albuquerque to Memphis, 1977.
