DEE JAY’S CORNER...

Hi! The big news from me this time is really a plug for my NEW
SHOW -- the special SATURDAY MORNING edition of the RECORD SHOP.
From 9:30 am ’til 1:00 pm we play the LIST -- first, “Wax to
Watch,” finally “Top 21.” Then we “scan the nation” so that
you’re the FIRST to hear what’s breaking out of town! So hang
onto this sheet... set your dial at 570... and let’s play the
show together!
