I am looking for a picture of the “Wooly Burger” for WKNR. My uncle used to dress up in the costume and go to the dances or functions.
Hello, trying to get some info on Mac Owens…did he also work at KOMA in Okalhoma City in 1966 using the name Johnny Dark? I grew up and still live in Phila., and remember him when he worked at WFIL in 1972…lastly do you know where else he worked?

Hi, I was wondering are there video clips available for Motown Mondays and also the audio? Thanks
Looks like some entries are no longer here. Was looking for the Iggy Pop interview and some of the other entries I recall reading on the Keener13 site previously. WKNR hits listings used to be occasionally reprinted in Blitz! magazine (a rock fanzine from MI) about 30 years ago…but as a kid, I probably heard CKLW far more often, circa 1968 or 1970 through 1973.
I was wondering if anyone has pictures of the time a bunch of kids sang happy birthday to John Lennon.It was around 1964
