For sure. But they didn't have to play it non-stop and ignore so much other good stuff.

Not sure if anyone here remebers the sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati, but they did a pretty dark episode on the whole payola/cocaine thing where the station's top DJ got corrupted and went on a bad downward spiral while playing mostly disco (which he hated) because he was being bribed to by a major label.

Oh, and....

I remember WKRP in Cincinnati, but I don't remember that episode.

No doubt there's a lot of great music that wasn't played on the radio then as now. That's commercial radio for you I guess. That's why, when I did listen to radio, I tended to stick to the college stations.

Remember the episode they did about the tragic Who concert in Cincinnati? Another really dark one.

Yeah I vaguely remember that one. It's been awhile since I thought about that. Deadly concerts is a good one.

I don't. That does certainly sound dark though.
