  • The Official Newsletter of the San Diego Model Car Club January 2007
    The Official Newsletter of the San Diego Model Car Club January 2007 . Most of us never give this a second thought, but without a place to meet, our little club wouldn’t exist. The fact that we even know each other and get together once a month is almost totally because we have a place to do it, and what most of us don’t know is that we come under real danger of losing it every single January. For one reason or another, the City Parks and Recreation Dept. changes the rules and criteria on our meeting room every year and as such, one of our members has to jump through hoops and negotiate just to make sure we still have a place to meet for the following year, and that guy is Darryl Gassaway. This latest round of bureaucratic nonsense got me to thinking about Darryl and how important he’s been to our club over the years. Darryl has been with us almost from the beginning and has always held positions of responsibility for just about the same length of time, ranging from newsletter editor to treasurer to probably some other positions I don’t even know about. During the time the club was involved with the Lower Left Coast Model Car Contest, Darryl, along with Dan King, ram-rodded that event every year and although as president, I never approved of the club’s involvement in it, I have to applaud Darryl’s tireless efforts in making that event a success. In addition, Darryl has be come a true ambassador of the model car building hobby, especially as it pertains to the Southern California area.

  • “The Stories Behind the Songs”
    “The Stories Behind The Songs” John Henderson The Stories Behind The Songs A compilation of “inside stories” behind classic country hits and the artists associated with them John Debbie & John By John Henderson (Arrangement by Debbie Henderson) A fascinating and entertaining look at the life and recording efforts of some of country music’s most talented singers and songwriters 1 Author’s Note My background in country music started before I even reached grade school. I was four years old when my uncle, Jack Henderson, the program director of 50,000 watt KCUL-AM in Fort Worth/Dallas, came to visit my family in 1959. He brought me around one hundred and fifty 45 RPM records from his station (duplicate copies that they no longer needed) and a small record player that played only 45s (not albums). I played those records day and night, completely wore them out. From that point, I wanted to be a disc jockey. But instead of going for the usual “comedic” approach most DJs took, I tried to be more informative by dropping in tidbits of a song’s background, something that always fascinated me. Originally with my “Classic Country Music Stories” site on Facebook (which is still going strong), and now with this book, I can tell the whole story, something that time restraints on radio wouldn’t allow. I began deejaying as a career at the age of sixteen in 1971, most notably at Nashville’s WENO-AM and WKDA- AM, Lakeland, Florida’s WPCV-FM (past winner of the “Radio Station of the Year” award from the Country Music Association), and Springfield, Missouri’s KTTS AM & FM and KWTO-AM, but with syndication and automation which overwhelmed radio some twenty-five years ago, my final DJ position ended in 1992.
