… …I’m sorry, Boyd, I may have to do it again sometime, blow your mind… …
[Description by Gene Knight]
Reverb in San Diego in 1974? Not normally. KCBQ had used reverb throughout the 60’s as a traditional top 40 station, but somewhere in the late 60’s or very early 70’s reverb on the “chain” was taken out.
However, for some reason, Rich Brother Robin, the PD in 1974, reactivated the reverb on the “Q” for one day, and here it is featured on the Shotgun Tom Kelly show. As you listen, it’s obvious that Shotgun grew up listening to jocks in the 60’s using the “reverb-on-demand” button on the board; Tom has fun with that button, too, especially coming out of the newscast with Boyd R. Britton. Enjoy “Reverb Day” on the Q!
