. . . All Oldies, All The Time! . . .

I don't remember if Gene Knight taped The Real Don Steele for me after I went to Chicago, or if PD Mike Wagner did. It's not The Real Don on his best day, but there are some great sets and the typical extreme high energy. It includes some Top 40 core songs, and some oldies that many grumble about not hearing anymore.

This is an unscoped hour, clean quality, with the commercials, newscast and low prices — all intact. The time tones and newscast sfx sound retro to the ones KRLA used twenty years earlier. It was a great move by Mike to resurrect those.
