RAY CLARK [daily Breakfast Show on BBC Essex] (Chelmsford, United Kingdom) To: Grady McAllister Cc: Jim Rose <\/span><\/b>Hi, I just found your site…enjoyed looking at it and thought maybe you could help me! I’m a radio guy from England…when I started out I worked on the pirate radio station Radio Caroline and thats where you MIGHT be able to help me! I’m writing the 50 year history of the station, but one of the ships spent most of 1963 resting in Galveston harbor – it was called the Mi Amigo and had connections to Gordon McLendon and Bill Weaver, as it had been used as a radio station in Sweden which was financed by McLendon. So, I’m just writing on the off chance that you might know something about all of this from all those years ago or perhaps know someone who could help me more. Any former KLIT <KILT> engineers around maybe? Thank you for your time – look forward to hearing from you if you can help Regards Ray Clark (www.rayradio.co.uk\/<\/a><\/span><\/b>)<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

GRADY MCALLISTER (Houston, TX) To: Ray Clark Cc: Jim Rose <\/span><\/b>Hello, I was only 15 in 1963, but a lot of Houston radio people from that era are still around. A KILT engineer from 1963 is Marv Miller. In 2006, he gave me all his original KILT material from the Kennedy assassination. I removed my link to him recently when I noticed it was no longer working. Maybe you can find him… Other KILT people from the 60’s include Jim Carola, Dan Lovett, and Robert B. McEntire. Those are all newsmen. I believe they are all still active in the Houston area. I am forwarding your appeal to Jim Rose Remembers Radio. Everybody who has ever been anybody in Houston radio frequents that web site. It is at: http:\/\/news.jimroseremembersradio.com\/<\/a><\/span><\/b> You can also contact Jim Rose directly, using the email on that site.

TONY BRIDGE [2010 Texas Radio Hall of Fame inductee] (Fort Worth-Benbrook, TX) <\/span><\/b>Subject: What about the future of radio? After finishing SMU, getting married, serving in the Navy, I bought my first radio station in 1954. The nation, after the war years, was ready for something new in entertainment. Todd Storz and Gordon McClendon introduced Rock and Roll Radio with all it\u2019s excitement. A new type of music, plenty of contests, immediate news coverage direct from the scene, and MORE. Talented young announcers made the audience their friends by talking directly to them with comments, often zany, but always interesting. Tony B<\/span><\/i>. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/h3>\n

TRIVIA ANSWER:<\/span><\/b> In 1957, The Rays’ recording of Silhouettes<\/i> is supposed to only be a demo record to introduce the tune to Toronto, Canada Rock quartet The Diamonds. But when both versions of the song simultaneously land on Billboard’s Pop chart, The Rays version is the bigger hit at #3 while The Diamonds score #10. Earlier in 1957 The Diamonds’ hot hit Little Darlin’<\/i> grabs hold of the #2 spot and won’t let go for 8 weeks with sales of over a half million copies. The Rays’ Silhouettes<\/i> makes them a one hit group but it also moves over a half million copies. The Diamonds’ second biggest hit The Stroll<\/i> lands on Billboard on December 30, 1957 and sails to #4 in early 1958. <\/span><\/p>\n

LYNN WOOLLEY [KRLD-KTEM-KNOW-KUT] (Waco-Temple, TX) <\/span><\/b>Subject: Gaylon Christie. Here’s another legend from Central Texas. Gaylon Christie was 17 when he got his first radio job at KTEM. He also played steel guitar with Clyde “Barefoot” Chesser’s band on the “Bluebonnet Barn Dance” on KCEN-TV, Channel 6 in 1953. Later, Gaylon had a band called “The Downbeats.” His band opened the “Towne & Country Jamboree” held in the downtown Temple Municipal Auditorium. He brought in acts like George Jones, Buck Owens, Porter Waggoner, Claude King and — on the night of November 22, 1963 — Johnny Cash. (I was there, at the age of 13.) Gaylon managed KTON for years, and later became GM at KXOL in Fort Worth. After that, he obtained a CP and started KOOV in Copperas Cove which he ran until Cumulus came to town and bought everybody out. On Tuesday, Feb. 26, 2013, Gaylon will be inducted into the Country Radio Hall of Fame in ceremonies at the Nashville Convention Center. Gaylon Christie was perfect for radio and the performing stage with his big, booming voice and sense of humor. Lynn (<\/span>www.BeLogical.com<\/a><\/span><\/b>)<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
