So I'm very excited about the possibility of this caucus. So what we're going to do, we're going to start with two of us who do more U.S.-based, kind of, Spanish language radio, work our way to two others who do more border-related, and then end up in Latin America, okay? So my research highlights how U.S. Spanish language radio across the 20th century has really capitalized, very lucratively, on the conversation around immigration.

  • Minnesota's-First Radio Station Was 9SV, Owned and Operated by 19-Year
    "Minnesota's-first radio station was 9SV, owned and operated by 19-year-old Robert Witschen, who broadcast phonographic music in 1920 to the few who could pick it up on their cat's whiskers sets. Schilpin hired Witschen in 1922 to build a station and give the Times a voice, WFAM. But the lack of advertisers---due to a lack of listeners with sets---forced the station to close down five years later. When Schilpin decided to try again in 1938, Witschen became the Chief Engineer for KFAM (the original call letters had been taken over by another station, and Schilpin's second choice, KSTC was, according to the FCC, too similar to St. Paul's KSTP).” KFAM-AM came on the air in 1938 and KFAM- FM was added a decade later…among the pioneer FM stations in Minnesota. ST CLOUD THE TRIPLET CITY JOHN DOMINIK 1983 Radio in Minnesota Radio in Minnesota, as in other parts of the country, began with experimental broadcasts in the 1910s. These often originated in the physics or engineering departments of colleges and universities. The University of Minnesota made its first radio transmissions in 1912, and in 1915 broadcast an entire football game with a spark gap transmitter. The University received a license for experimental station 9XI in 1920. Similar stations at St. John’s University and St. Olaf College also began during this period. Station 9XI at the University of Minnesota eventually was replaced by WLB, which became the state’s first licensed AM station on Jan. 13, 1922 (twenty three years later WLB would change its call letters to KUOM).

  • Organized Labor and Radio Station WEVD During the 1930S
    LaborHistory, Vol. 42, No. 4, 2001 Strugglingover Politics and Culture:Organized Labor and Radio Station WEVD duringthe 1930s NATHANGODFRIED* By theearly years ofthe Great Depression,corporate-controlled national radio net- works,Hollywood-centered motion picture producers,and large-circulation daily news- papers appeared todominate the means of ideological andcultural productionin the U.S.1 Labor,progressive, andradical leaderscorrectly perceivedthe mass media asan integral part ofthe larger social andeconomic relations ofproduction. Echoing the insights ofKarl Marx, they warnedof how the nation’ s dominantpropertied classes wouldseek to control society’ s “governing ideasand motives” by manipulating the massmedia tojustify, among other things,“ great inequalities in wealth in thecom- munity.”2 EdwardNockels of the Chicago Federation ofLabor (CFL),for example, protestedthat networkradio reinforcedthe luster of consumption, the holiness of the marketplace, andthe infallibility ofbusiness. The Socialist Party contendedthat commercial radio programs wereas standardized as anything rolling outof a Ford factory. Nockelsdescribed such shows as bland entertainment“ whennot outright propaganda or delusivespecial pleading.”3 Suchcriticisms foreshadowedthe arguments of e´migre´ Europeanintellectuals who,by thelate 1930s, woulddenounce mass culture for its bourgeois “consumerism,intellectual vapidness,and political complacency,”and contendthat ruling groups usedit “tomanipulate, pacify, andcontrol” the general public.4 In recentdecades, historians

  • Jim Duncan Has Touched All Corners of the Business, Including On-Air Talent, MD, PD, Syndicated Host and Radio & Records VP/Country Editor
    With a career spanning seven decades, all in major markets, Jim Duncan has touched all corners of the business, including on-air talent, MD, PD, syndicated host and Radio & Records VP/Country Editor. Along the way, Duncan served the Jim Duncan format on the CMA and CRB boards A Multi-Faceted Infl uencer and was instrumental in the career development of infl uential industry leaders. He continues his work as a voiceover artist and production and recording engineer via his own Jim Duncan Creative. I had polio when I was a kid and was in and out of hospitals most of my early life as one of the Salk babies. Dr. Jonas Salk lived in San Diego and developed the polio vaccine used to cure me. My dad was a Naval offi cer in the submarine service, so I only saw him approximately six months out of the year. Every time he went to Japan, he would get me and my brother and sisters gifts – porcelain Geisha dolls for the girls and new silk jackets for the boys. One year, he came in with a small box – a transistor radio. The fi rst voice I ever heard on that radio was Wolfman Jack. He taught me how to be wacky and have fun, and “The Real” Don Steele at KHJ/Los Angeles taught me how to deliver a break. I met my best friend, “Shotgun Tom” Kelly, at a taping of The Regis Philbin Show, which fi lmed at KOGO-TV/San Diego. Tom and I were there to see the radio station that was also in the building.

  • Ollie Collins Jr
    OLLIE COLLINS JR. – TOP ROW, THIRD FROM THE LEFT Ollie Collins Jr – “The Man with the Golden Voice” by Opal Louis Nations At first listen, Ollie Collins Jr’s delicately melismatic and exquisitely sublime vocal style reminds us of the Memphis soul tradition. After all, Collins was born and raised in Saltillo, Mississippi, less than a hundred miles south-east of Memphis. Names like James Carr and the Southern Wonder Juniors, O.V. Wright and the Sunset Travelers and namesake Ollie (Hoskins) Nightingale and the Dixie Nightingales all spring to mind. But, unlike Carr, Wright or Nightingale, Collins never turned his back on the praise of God. Numerous offers were made over the years, offers of bright lights and fancy life-style, but he resolutely turned them all down. A closer listen presents to us a different path. Our profile of Collins includes the prevailing influence of Baptist minister Rev. Willie Morganfield. Morganfield was also from Mississippi. His father sang in outstanding churches around Memphis. Morganfield was converted at the age of eight and started singing with local gospel groups like the Four Stars (an amateur quartet). In 1947, upon turning professional, Morganfield sang with the famous Kings of Harmony who toured the country extensively. The Kings of Harmony were from Birmingham, Alabama. Collins and Morganfield probably met up before Morganfield’s move to Cleveland in 1966 to pastor the Christian Baptist Church. Starting in the late Fifties, Collins, having heard Morganfield’s vocal signatures, became profoundly influenced by them. Their singing styles grew on parallel tracks. Ollie Collins Jr was born to Ollie and Annie Collins in Saltillo, Mississippi, just ten miles north of Tupelo, on January 31st, 1940.

  • "AMERICAN GRAFFITI" Screenplay by George Lucas Gloria Katz
    "AMERICAN GRAFFITI" Screenplay by George Lucas Gloria Katz & Willard Huyck RADIO On a dark screen an immense amber light appears and an electric humming begins. The eerie light glows brighter and illuminates a single huge number--11. We hear static and a large vertical band of red floats mysteriously across the screen. Pulling back slowly, we watch the glowing band traverse back and forth over the amber light and past more numbers appearing-- 70... 90... 110... 130. And we begin to hear voices--strange songs, fading conversations and snatches of music drifting with static. Pulling back further, we realize it is a car radio filling the screen and radio stations we're hearing, until the indicator stops. There's a pause...and suddenly we are hit by a blasting-out-of-the-past, Rocking and Rolling, turn-up- the-volume, pounding Intro to a Vintage 1962 Golden Week-End Radio Show--back when things were simpler and the music was better. And now a wolf howl shatters through time as the legendary Wolfman Jack hits the airwaves, his gravel voice shrieking and growling while the music pumps and grinds... WOLFMAN Awwrigght, baay-haay-baay! I got a oldie for ya--gonna knock ya right on de flowa--baay-haay-hee-baay! The Wolfman howls like a soulful banshee as "Rock Around the Clock" blasts forth. MEL'S DRIVE-IN--DUSK A neon drive-in casts long shadows across a vast parking lot as the sun drops behind a distant hill. A large neon sign buzzes in the foreground... MEL'S DRIVE-IN, while in the background, "Rock Around The Clock" blares from the radio of a beautiful decked and channeled, white with red trim, tuck- and-rolled '58 Chevy Impala that glides into the drive-in.

Contact: [email protected] SMITH, ROBERT WESTON (“WOLFMAN JACK”) (b. 21 Jan. 1938 in Brooklyn, New York; d. 1 July 1995 in Belvidere, North Carolina), legendary radio personality, television host, actor, and commercial spokesman. Born in Brooklyn, Bob Smith was the youngest of two children of Anson Weston Smith, Jr., an Episcopal Sunday School teacher, writer, editor, and executive vice-president for the Financial World, and Rosamund Small, who divorced while he was young. His father (known as Weston) had suffered financial losses during the Depression (selling shoes for a time), later starting his own public relations consulting firm and writing for the Wall Street Transcript. Both parents remarried and shared custody of Bob and his sister Joan. Listening to a large transoceanic radio his father bought to keep him out of trouble – he later referred to himself as a “budding juvenile delinquent” – Smith became an avid fan of both rhythm-and-blues music and the disc jockeys who promoted it, like Philadelphia’s “Jocko” Henderson, New York’s “Dr. Jive,” the “Moon Dog” Alan Freed (first in Cleveland, and later at New York’s WINS), and Nashville’s “John R.” Richbourg, who later became his mentor.
