The 1970s!!! Rock n' Roll was a billion-dollar business. At the heart of rock n' roll was FM Radio. Once the younger sibling to AM, Top 40, and Boss Radio, now the FM dial took over and appealed to the Baby Boomers, who were growing older and hipper. "Progressive FM" "Album Oriented Rock" "Hard Rock" These were the FM formats. Soon, morning shows, sports, comedy sketches, and live interviews filled out FM Radio...In San Diego, 101KGB ruled the FM airwaves.

KGB produced the world-famous Homegrown albums, the KGB Chicken, and the KGB Skyshow, a first-of-its-kind spectacle of music synchronized to fireworks...This one-hour TV documentary explores the cultural impact of FM Radio in the 1970s-80s, examining this phenomenon via one of the greatest FM radio stations from that era...101.5 KGB-FM.
