[BC] Local Celebrities

[Steve]

Hi Dennis:

No...the format at KLOK was Oldies with some currents when I was there in 1970. I've always had a production studio in my home and I produced Dave's audition tape that landed him the job at KLIV. I went to college with Dave Sholin at San Francisco State University. I used to walk over my report to the Gavin office when they were in the same building with KCBS-FM (I was there from 1972 to 1979 under the name Steve Walker, which I use to this day) I was on KFRC in 1980 but I'm guessing you had long left by then. I use Steve Hillard for Classical formats. (doing tracks for the classical channel on a satellite network called WorldSpace. We don't serve our part of the world. We serve parts of Europe/Middle East/Africa/Asia.)

Yes, small biz. There are only a dozen of us and we change masks, hair, clothing and voices to suit the particular needs at the time. :)

  I was in grade school... Myrtle the Bus Driver was who stands out in my
  memory (sad).

  I associate Dave Sholin with the Gavin Report... I remember Dave Diamond's
  name, but nothing else... but I can still sing the "KLOK Ray-Dee-Oh" jingle.
  Country, right? Bet it's what Mom & Dad had on in the car... small world,
  small biz, afterall...

  San Francisco is my home town. You probably remember "The Duke" Dave Sholin
  at KLIV. I worked for KLOK in San Jose in 1970. Before that, in 1968, did
  audio (put in the audio for KBHK Channel 44, Kaiser Broadcasting) for
  Captain San Francisco. Captain Satellite was on KTVU if I remember
  correctly. You might remember Dave Diamond on KFRC. I was his
  producer/engineer in 1968-1969. I could go on forever but I'll leave it
  there. :)
