\nTONY WILLIAMS [WKY-930\/KRLD-1080] (Dallas-Richardson, TX)<\/strong> A Cage in Search of a Bird\u201d and \u201cI\u2019m Here to Kill a King\u201d were originally scheduled to air on November 22 and 29, 1963 respectively. CBS\u2019 coverage of the assassination of John F. Kennedy necessitated the programming changes. \u201cA Cage In Search Of A Bird\u201d was simply moved back one week, but as \u201cI\u2019m Here To Kill A King\u201d dealt with the topic of political assassination, it was unsuitable for broadcast in the immediate wake of Kennedy\u2019s death. Some sources indicate that \u201cI\u2019m Here To Kill A King\u201d aired on CBS on March 20, 1964, one week after the series finale. However, contemporary television listings in The New York Times and other U.S. newspapers list the episode of March 20 as a re-run of season three\u2019s \u201cHey, Moth, Come Eat the Flame\u201d. \u201cI\u2019m Here To Kill A King\u201d was made available in syndication when Route 66 was syndicated starting in the 1964\/65 season<\/em>.

\nDON SUNDEEN [DJ\/Hi Records promotion\/TV ad prod] (Dallas, TX)<\/strong> Subject: Jerry Lee. \u201cWhole Lot of Shaking,\u201d was the first record I played on the radio. WJTN in Jamestown, NY, let me have two hours on Saturday night to play \u201cmusic for the kids;\u201d A decade later I\u2019d be dealing with \u201cThe Killer\u201d himself. Born in Ferriday, LA, Jerry Lee Lewis and his cousins, Jimmy Swaggart and Mickey Gilley, would roam the streets at night when only preteens. There was a black club that they\u2019d stand outside open windows grooving to the blues. Sunday mornings they\u2019d go to a fundamentalist Church and sing and play the gospel. The story of Jerry Lee turning up drunk and wielding a firearm at Graceland demanding to see Elvis is true, the only damage done was to his Cadillac which he drove into the Graceland fence. I went to a Club to greet him and a sign on the door said he wouldn\u2019t appear that night, because he had punched a drunk in Memphis and broke his hand. Another time the IRS was digging up his property where he\u2019d buried cash in coffee cans not bothering to pay taxes. But he also was kind and generous and loved women and children<\/em>.
\nTRIVIA ANSWER:<\/strong> One of the first record albums that receives the Parental Advisory<\/em> label is Frank Zappa\u2019sJazz From Hell<\/em> (1985). History of Rock & Roll Trivia says: The album is entirely instrumental, meaning that it contains no lyrics. The title of one song, \u2018G-Spot Tornado\u2019, earns Frank Zappa the Parental Advisory label<\/em>.
