SAING:F(iooti Country in Bakerst icld

I listen to a wide variety of radio. In themorning I prefer waking up gently, so KLAChas been my choice for the clock/radio.Now Imus - find a new station.

A question: I don't see any public radiostations on the Arbitron list you printed inthe last issue. Are they not rated? Or arethe ratings so low they don't register? I likepublic radio.

Advice for country fans dismayed atKZLA: Get a good AM radio and check outKCW (from Bakersfield) at 550 AM. Itcomes in fine here in the San FernandoValley, but you need a good radio.

I enjoy your publication.Eric Wrobbel of Woodland HillsEditor's Note: Public radio ratings are

not released to the press.Looney Raises Blood Pressure

Please cancel our subscription to yourmagazine. I can't take having my bloodpressure raised everyPoint of View" - a liberal from the wordgo!

Also, some of your left-wing liberals lis-teners crying because Tom Leykis wasremoved from the local air. At least themanagement woke up to the fact that thearea doen't need his weird sense of humor.And Mike Reagan is not boring!

K & C Stefan of HawthorneFormat Frustration

I really enjoy your magazine. Be sure tosend me a renewal notice as I don't wantto miss one single issue.

I'm very frustrated with some of theradio stations changing their formats andgetting rid of some DJs and talk hosts.

I'm very glad that Shawn Parr and BoReynolds are still at KZLA, but I liked moretalking on the morning show, 5 a.m. to 10a.m. I don't like the show "Imus in theMorning," as KLAC is the only station thathas adult standards (as it was too much forK -JOY to compete with). I also don't likeKMPC taking Joe Crummey off the air. I

hope that he gets a regular show again.Clara Hedburn of Burbank

finding my favorite shows a breeze! Ratherthan just spinning the dial on my radio tofind an interesting show, I just pop openmy Radio Guide, and it's all right there inblack and white! What took you guys solong to come up with this anyway? I waswondering, however, there used to be aLas Vegas show on late Friday nights onKIEV and, according to the Radio Guide, itstill is. But it's really not! I love this showand would really like to find out if its stillavailable. Do you know if it's still on theair? I depend on Radio Guide so much, so ifthe information is wrong or outdated, Ineed to know!

Poorman Drives Groove RadioJim "Poorman" Trenton, the morning

man at the new Groove Radio, believeshe has every right to refer to his love/sextalk and music show with celebrity guestsas "Loveline." He had been calling it "TheOriginal Loveline," contending that theshow is his brainchild. But KROQand itsowner, Infinity Broadcasting Corporation.did not appreciate Poorman's use of thename and slapped a cease -and -desistorder on him, according to a KACD/KBCDFM 103.1 press release. KROQ airs thesyndicated "Loveline" with Dr. Drew andAdam Corolla nightly. Trenton has beencontesting the ownership of the showsince he was fired from the "world-famous" FM in 1993.

"The whole concept of 'Loveline' is tocreate a situation like real life -a non-threatening environment." Trenton saidof the show he started in 1983. "If youhave a sexual or love problem, you talk tofriends first; then you go to the doctor."

Trenton now calls his show "Morningswith the Poorman."

After Poorman signs off at 9 a.m., Joe"the Boomer" Servantez comes on untilnoon when former Mars FM DJ HollyAdams takes over until 3 p.m. ProgramDirector Egil "Swedish Eagle" Aalvikhandles the drive home. Evenings belongto Tony B and Womina Wells until 9p.m. Then it's Jeff K until the midnight

hour. Overnights are the province ofMohamed Morreta (12 a.m. to 3 a.m.)and China Smith (3 a.m. to 6 a.m.). Theshorter three-hour shifts typify a morepersonality -driven station and are unusu-al for the music -intensive format on thisdance/rhythm-oriented signal.Easy Out; B100.3 In

Starting with a tongue-in-cheek med-ley of hits from various pop music genres,embedded in a sea of white noise, easy -listening KXEZ 100.3 FM ended its 3 -year life at noon Aug. 29. "RhythmicAdult Contemporary" KIBB-FM was bornto the sound of "You Dropped a Bomb onMe" by The Gap Band. The new formatplays hits from the '70s, '80s and '90sfeaturing artists such as Madonna,Mariah Carey. Prince, Earth Wind andFire and Toni Braxton.

"B 100.3 FM is the station that LosAngeles has been waiting for,"KIBB/KYSR Vice President and GeneralManager Ken Christensen said. "It hasthe music, the fun andattracts a large portion of the market."

Program Director Tony Coles stays onat the Viacom -owned station, sister toAlternative Adult Contemporary "Star98.7." The new lineup of DJs was expect-ed to be announced in September, accord-ing to Christensen.Surprises at KIIS

Magic Matt Alan popped up in theafternoon drive slot attop 40 KIIS Aug. 12 aftera five-year hiatus fromthe station. From 1989to 1991, Alan was a topratings -earner for theAM -FM combo.

Burke's placement on the jock lineupwas the first in a series of major adjust-ments by Program Director John Cook,who joined the station in lune.KRLA Becomes 'Mix 11'

Art Laboe, "Oldies But Goodies" leg-end and host of Sunday night's syndicat-ed "Killer Oldies Show," is the masterbehind the new "Mix 11, Oldies andMore" format at KRLA AM 1110. ThePasadena -licensed radio station scoredhigh ratings in the '70s when Laboe wasprogram director. Mucho Morales is out:Dominick Garcia went from midday hostto weekends: and night -timer KikiMelendez oversees the only bilingual sin-gles show. Carmi Ferrari is no longer pro-gram director.

Labor describes his new format as an"AM station with the FM style," meaninglonger mixes of music and a slightly more

relaxed presentation by the Dis. Onething remains the same: KRLA still courtsthe loyalty of second- and third- genera-tion Latinos, who seem to like the "soul-ful" blend of oldies along with recent"soft" urban and dance hits.

"We sponsored four concerts at theHouse of Blues," Crowe said. "They allsold out."

Anglo stations KPWR and KRLA haveplayed hits with Spanish lyrics, but thismay be the first time a Spanish languagestation in L.A. returns the compliment byplaying songs in English by artists such asMadonna and Gloria Estefan.

Spanish rock artists heard includeMana, La Ley, Cafe ca Cuba andAlegandre Guzman with Spanish popartists Soraya, Marc Anthony and LosLobos also in the mix.

Say the term "oldies radio" and mostpeople can tell you what it means - tothem. For most, it's the music that theyheard on the radio while growing up. In acity as diversified as Los Angeles, theanswer could be anything from Chicago,to the Chi-Lites, to the Chiffons. Oldies goby other names such as classics, solidgold, dusties, old school or nostalgia.Noncontemporary tunes hold great memo-ries for listeners and attract many newfans born after the records were made.Even contemporary stations include hitsfrom the past.

"Oldies are the common checkpoint foranyone under 53." said Torn Rounds.executive producer of American Top 40and president of Radio Express, whosecompany syndicates Dick llartley4hAmerica') Gold overseas. "What's interest-ing is dig they change a lot from marketto marka What WCBS-FAI does in NewYork is different from K -Earth. The BeachBoys weren't lly that big on the EastCoast. It's re the personality of thecommunity th is wrapped up in theoldies stations. K -Earth is a perma-plaqueKHJ."

Ask r dio legend Art Laboe what oldiesradio ns, and you've hit the motherlode. nds-on program consultant andmidday on -air personality at KRLA 1110AM, Laboe created the oldies radio formatin the mid -'50s. right here in L.A. I le wasthe first DI on the West Coast to play rock'n' roll full-time. He did a daily radio showon KPOP from Scrivner's Drive -In. E,afternoon teenagers lammed the restau-rant at the corner of Sunset and Cahuengato hear Laboe play their favorite tunes.

"A lot of the kids would request songsthat were 2 and 3 years old," Laboerecalled. "In the life of a 16- or 17 -year-old, two or three years is a long,time. Theythink that song came out a long time ago:'I was in the ninth grade then!' And that'show oldies started."

He dubbed those often -requested tunes"oldies but goodies."

"The show from Scrivner's had a 33-share [roughly one-third of radio listen-

ers] of the radio market," the oldies mae-stro proudly recalled.

That makes Laboe's KPOP gig the high-est rated show in Los Angeles radio histo-ry. Even teenage rocker -to -be RickyNelson came by Scrivner's every after-noon until he put out his own record.

The show continued right up to 1960."By then. kids were requesting songs

back to 1954." the oldies pro explained."The list of oldies I was playing was get-ting bigger and bigger. That really was thefirst oldies format."

Lobos: began putting together the nowlegendary concerts at the Legion Stadiumin IA Monte. All the musical acts of theday. including Sam Cooke. the Penguins,the Everly Brothers. lerry Lee Lewis,Jackie Wilson and Ray Char45, played atLpoe's El Monte concerts.

-By then, Laboe had branched out fromplaying records to making then),

In the late '50s, the rock igroll entre-preneur issued his first in a series of 13records. "Oldies But Goodies, Volumes 1-14." With a nod to the gods of luck andfate. he decided to skip the number 13and move on to Volume 14. And the godshave certainly been on his side. "OldiesBut Goodies Volume One" stayed onBillboard's Top 100 for a staggering 183weeks.

"In early 1959. I produced two recordsthat became national hits. 'Teen Beat' bySandy Nelson and 'Bongo Rock' byPreston Epps," I said. Those two hitsgave birth to Laboe's company, OriginalSound Records, an organization now cele-brating its fourth decade in existence. Thecompany keeps Laboe busy producingrecords, licensing and providing musicpublishing for film and television, as wellas syndicating a weekly radio Show (car-ried in Los Angeles on KRLA. Laboe'sKiller Oldies Show." Sundays 7 p.m. tomidnight). The company even has an"Oldies But Goodies Trivia Gattle" featur-ing 300 -plus musical teasers from the'50s, '60s and '70s on cassette.

"I'm the one who brought the oldiesformat to KRTH (101.1 FM) in the early'70s," the oldies guru said. "Before thatthey were a hard rock station. I convincedHal Rosenberg, who was the general man-ager then, that oldies was the way for thestation to go. I started doing a live broad-cast from my nightclub on Sunset everyweekend. All the kids who rememberedme from the '50s would come around."

The nightclub - once the world-famous Ciro's - became "Art Laboe'sOldies But Goodies Club" in the '70s, andhis shows were broadcast live on KRTH.In the late '50s, KFWB (980) carriedI.aboe's show from Ciro's. He interviewedthe musical figures of the day, as well asthe many movie stars who frequented theplace. The nightclub did a booming busi-ness up into the early '80s. Eventually,Laboe sold the place; and it is now theComedy Club.

In 1976, KRLA picked Laboe for acombo post of program director, air per-sonality and sales consultant. He calledthe format "Hit Radio 11, Twenty Years ofHits."

"From 1977 to 1981. we were eitherNo. 1 or in the top five stations with thatconcept of 'Oldies And...,' " Laboe report-ed. "It was very successful."

By this time, Laboe's continued successin radio earned him an emblem on theHollywood Walk of Fame. On July 17,1981 Laboe received his star at the south-west corner of Hollywood Boulevard andHighland Avenue, a stone's throw from hisold perch at the long -defunct Scrivner'sDrive-in.

Last summer, the oldies expert jumpedback in the managerial saddle at KRLA.Laboe introduced a format he calls 'Mix11 KRLA,' offering mostly R&B oldies andan urban -flavored blend of recent hits.

"It's an oldies station, primarily," theradio veteran explained. "But now it has abroader appeal. It doesn't just appeal topeople from the '50s and '60s. It appealsto people from the '70s, '80s and maybeeven the '90s. We have whole familieswho listen to the station."

"Our listeners have grown up," saidKRLA afternoon drive DJ Manny Pacheco."Art has kept the format alive by playingoldies that are more contemporary. The twocan go together. It's not so much a changein format as it is a format enhancer."12 - Los Angeles Radio Guide

In L.A., KRTH pulls in the lion's shareof the oldies audience. The station Laboehelped to shape into an oldies giant morethan two decades ago is fortunate to havea signal that reaches from Santa Barbarato San Diego. KRTH is identified with DJsof legendary status: Robert W. Morgan,The Real Don Steele and Johnny Hayes.(Both Hayes and Steele previously workedat KRLA). KRTH sticks with the tradition-al oldies format, playing hits from the'50s. '60s and '70s. Although most listen-ers are in the 25-54 range, K -Earth is alsopopular with children and teens.

"A lot of kids listen to K -Earth," KRTHGeneral Manager Patrick Duffy said. "Themusic is not controversial: it has simplelyrics, it's uptcmpo and fun. K -Earth iskid -friendly."

KACE 103.9 FM presents a specializedoldies format, featuring R&B and soulartists such as Aretha Franklin, the O'Jaysand the Dells.

In the Inland Empire, KOLA 99.9 FM,which reaches parts of L.A., brings in agood share of the audience (No. 3 with lis-teners ages 25-54 in the springRiverside/San Bernardino ratings) with aformat similar to KRTH's.

"We have a ton bigger library than theydo," KOLA Program Director GarySpringfield said. "We have a bigger vari-ety. We would play a Neil Diamond that[KRTH1 wouldn't touch."

Arrow 93. KCBS 93.1 FM, plays rock'n' roll classics by groups like the Who,Steely Dan and the Doobie Brothers.Unlike a classic rock station, Arrow 93plays mostly hits and doesn't delve toodeeply into album cuts.

The DJs at Arrow 93 rarely use theirlast names on the air.

"The idea behind that is to make thejocks sound like a friend on the radio,"Assistant Program Director Billy Sabatiniexplained.

Los Angeles is an extraordinarily com-petitive radio market.

"It's a dogfight every day between thestations for the same demographics."Sabatini pointed out.

Radio ace Laboe doesn't underestimateL.A. radio's hurdles.

"I don't rest on my laurels and just say,'Look what I've done,' " he said. "This is1996. I may get my butt kicked here. I'vegot to go in with guns blazing."

Top 40 Radio's Pied PipersBY KATHY GRONAU

During the '50s and '60s, a revolu-tion overturned the radio establish-ment. Rock 'n' roll supplanted artistslike Frank Sinatra, Eddie Fisher andPatti Page. The sexual rhythm of ElvisPresley. Buddy Holly, the Shirelles, theBritish Invasion and "the Motownsound." excited the young listeners.The revolution gave birth to theAmerican teenager and to a new type ofradio.

At the Museum of Television andRadio in May, legendary radio person-alities from those days told their storiesabout radio's second golden age. GaryOwens, then on top 40 KFWB,described how radio station ownersTodd Storz and Gordon McLendonstarted the format in the mid -'50s.Storz and McLendon decided to pro-gram their stations based on the juke-box concept after observing how somerecords were played over and overagain. Their formula was simplicityitself, play the most popular songs mostoften. "Top 40" was born.

Teenagers comprised top 40's mostenthusiastic audience. K -Earth's BrianBeime, a.k.a. "Mr. Rock 'n' Roll," was there.

"The kids liked to watch the recordsmove up the charts," said Beirne, whohas been at the oldies giant for 20 years.

AM stations. Hayes' passion to be partof the radio scene eventually led to hismajor market career on KRLA, andmost recently, KRTH.

In those days, young listeners lovedthe popular DJs, who became theirgurus and their best friends.

Dan Ingram of New York's WCBS-FM reveled in the energy of the rockrevolution.

"I'm a bit of an iconoclast, and Ipoke holes at pomposity," he said."They [the listeners] felt at one withwhat I was saying; people thought I

was directly talking to them."In the early days of rock 'n' roll

radio, DJs picked their records and hadfar more freedom over show content.

"The power of the disc jockey wasenormous," said KBIG's Casey Kasem,who has been counting down the hitsfor 26 years on various syndicatedcountdown shows. "They [the manage-ment] trusted me."

Ms were known to play the samesong five times in two hours. AlanFreed, the DI widely believed to havecoined the term rock 'n' roll, onceplayed "Lonely Teardrops" 17 times ina row.

In the halcyon days of top 40, theradio business was a far cry fromtoday's world of giant corporations con-trolling music and broadcasting. Manyhit "singles" came from small indepen-dent record companies working in part-nership with artists.

Art Laboe first used the phrase"oldies but goodies."

"I was the first [DJ] to play rock 'n'roll on the West Coast," said Laboe,who still spins records on KRLA-AM.

In 1961, Los Angeles had only 12AM stations and KFWB had the biggestlocal radio audience in the world - fivemillion listeners. Record promoters andmusicians courted the station's morn-ing host, Gary Owens, every morning atAldo's Restaurant located next door toKFWB. At one of those power break-

fasts, Owens introduced record promot-er Sonny Bono to a young unknownnamed Cher.

In the '50s black R&B records"crossed over" to white radio stations.White DJs abandoned "cover" versionsof black songs by white artists such asPat Boone and started playing "mixedlists."

"People called it animal music."Ingram said.

When Motown Records hit the rock'n' roll scene. Beirne was doing anovernight shift.

"I got hate mail," he said.Hayes had similar experiences."It was very hard for a white kid to

play a black record," Hayes recalled.

But the independent personality DIhas given way to researched playlists.[Ns no longer have the power to makehits. The financial success of rock radioand the superstars it helped to createattracted big business.

"Program directors and GMs - peo-ple with sharp pencils - want to makeas much money as they can," Ingramsaid. "They can hire a kid for scale orvery little money."

Contemporary programmers use focusgroups to help choose the songs.Consultants script much of the DI patter.

"The real gut is missing," Ingramconcluded.

Even so, most of the museum'snotable panelists still revive those earlydays of rock 'n' roll on KRTII and KRLA

The Lowey Point of ViewThroughout my fabulous career here at

the L.A. Radio Guide, I rarely write aboutmorning shows. As my close friendGloria Allred would say, why don't wevisit that issue now?

Got the top down and my radio turnedup really loud, and I'm listening to a gen-uine radio T -Rex: Imus. Previously, I hadrefused to listen to Imus since he's beenhere in L.A. on 570 KLAC. (He's also canbe pulled in on KOGO AM 600.) Why didI refuse to listen? Well, I guess my closefriend Howard Stern had me convincedthat Imus is a washed-up anti -Christ. Well,I've got news for you and Howard. He's adamn funny washed up anti -Christ. I "lol"with Don every morning.

Recently, My Looney fingers have alsobeen pushing the Peter Tilden Showbutton with Tracey Miller (710 TalkKMPC). Peter and Tracey are downrightfrolicsome. (Based on their rating. itseems to me that the cult of us who lis-ten to them is no Jonestown - moreMansonesque in size.) Peter and Traceyarc doing major -market mornings, whichcan't be said about many of the otherwanna-be morning shows in L.A. It'sreally too bad they're stuck on KABC'sugly stepsister. If you haven't listened,do it. If they aren't funny at 7:05, thenkeep listening; they'll be funny at 7:06!

Wayne Resnick ( KFI 7 p.m. -9 p.m..Monday through Friday) has graduatedfrom being fair to downright middling. Inthe past, whenever I'd hear Wayne, Iused to turn over to the WAVE, and lis-ten to yuppie -elevator music. But thesedays, I kick it with the Wayne-meister. (Ibet you these talk show hosts quiver

If Ken and Barkley were doing theirshow in Witchita, Kan., I wouldn't belistening. Regardless, their morning showis on KABC here in L.A., and they arcprovided with a plethora of all-starguests hour after hour. The show isn'tbad - although a bit Efferdent for me.

LOONEY BITS...Bill Handel's hottopic the other day: "Granny Porn on theInternet"... The disc jockeys on K -Earth101 remind me of the DJs on the radiowhen I was little, and that's a goodthing. All voice and no soul. I'd rathernot get to know a 1960s DJ's soul, ifRush Limbaugh is any indication of thenorm ... XTRA increased its wattage, andnow I can't hear them at night ... Theother night I heard on Art Bell's showthat "it's all a conspiracy"... Larry Elder,John and Ken. Bill Handel, DennisPrager and Xavier Hermosillo arc a fewexamples of a new brand of lack -Kemp -California -Conservative talk show hostwho is conservative on fiscal and ethicalissues and very calm and unhateful onsocial issues like immigration. race rela-tions, homosexuals. etc. These guys arcmodels of how one can be a successfultalker without spewing venom Themorning guys on 97.9 KLAX, JuanCarlos Hidalgo and Jesus Garcia, werepicking strawberries in Oxnard just a fewbears back, and now they arc making bigucks as morning guys in L.A. radio.

Their story is truly chicken soup for thesoul... I promised myself that I wouldn'tmention my close friend Mr. KFI in thisissue. I don't like to apple -polish.
