TRIBUTE TO JOHN R AND WLAC
Переглядів 51 тис.16 років тому
The first thing I ever bought with money that I earned was a radio of my own.That was in 1956. Soon I discovered WLAC and John R, Hoss Allen, Jimmy Reed, Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf and many others. They determined the musical preferences for my life. Even the commercials were entertaining on WLAC!

      When I was young I never thought that I would be able to even enter the building, much less work there.

    So good bringing back these memories of John R and WLAC, I'm in Hattiesburg Ms, and this is what we looked forward to hearing late at night. John R inspired me to become a radio jock. I'm heading into my 52nd year. Thanks John R. R.I. P.

    When the boys were playing in Lexington, and Richmond, and other cities in bars I had the honor to take the admittance charge for them for a year or two... almost a roadie (they really didn't have one at the time). Their talent will be sorely missed.

    During WLAC's R & B era, one of my Uncles stated he would listen to WLAC in Connecticut at night. That's a long distance for Nashville, Tennessee.

    I listened to WLAC for more than 15 years from the 50s to the 60s in South Carolina for most local stations signed off at sunset.

    I just found out John R was a white man, after 55 years. I remember laying in bed with a small transistor radio and i could pick up WLAC all the way from Nashville to a holler in Dante, VA. He got me hooked on R&B music. Still hooked but miss those early days of R&B. Thanks John R, may you rest in peace.

    I lived in a house in Lexington, Ky. with a lot of beloved people back in 1973 along with Frank and his lovely SO.. He was so funny and a special unique artist, connected through FB with Nick Stump finding a post yesterday on FB. I just learned of Frank's passing. All Stars Metropolitan Blues Band are great and opened up a whole new cultural world for me! I now live far away and life changed for all of us but these memories are great gift!
