Jake .... Right on Brother ... I Just Want To Testify - The Parliaments from Detroit, as heard on "The Big 8, CKLW" in July, 1967.

I hear ya Brother Jake ... all power to the people.

When a man knows he has done wrong, has turned to someone greater than himself and has seen the light, he wants to testify ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1KZKZs-2YM

And unnecessary violence has been approved to remove the protesting scum that has arisen from the gutter.

Actually, I used to do some work for Donald K Donald setting up venues, buying radio time, arranging for security by off-duty cops, emceeing the concert, etc. It was a quick way to make some tax-free bucks peeled right off the top from the gate receipts and then go on my merry way.

Mashmakhan at the Montreal Forum during the summer of 1970 was quite a performance. I was working at CKGM radio then ... the number 1 rock station in the city. Oh, and of course, I got in free too.

That was when I was proud to play Canadian talent on-air .... once the Liberal govt sum forced us to play it at the rate of 35% I obstructed it in every way possible and still detest CANCON as a matter of principle due to govt intervention. Yeah, so there are some good Canuck singers ... so get in contact with me via PM and I'll mail you a quarter to phone somebody who cares, and over the last 40 years I've heard it all, so don't bother trying to assail me with any Pierre Trudeau government brainwashed drivel.

As one of my east coast buddies would say "Lord-liftin' Jesus boy ... no!"

I got in on a free radio station staff promotional ticket.

The "warm up band" was Stevie Wonder with Martha Reeves & The Vandellas .. quite a show.

Its having wasted a couple of years of my life as a peripheral member of the so-called "counter culture" that makes me appreciate my current outlook on life, and that I'm now blessedly able to identify a scumbag because I have observed the inner operations of the belly of the beast.

I remember listening to CKGM-FM before it became CHOM. The Fourth Tower of Inverness, Live Earl Jive.

http://rockradioscrapbook.ca/air1986.html

I was a bouncer at the forum from 1975-1980. DKD...Don Tarlton and crew.

Flashback.

OFD...I agree on not approving of govt forced CanCon. But, if it hadn't changed, we'd still be listening to Anne Murray and Gordon Lightfoot. It brought out such great musical talent.

Wasn't Gerry Mercer in the Triangle?

Bob Rags....haven't seen that name in 30 years.

Do we all know each other from a former life? The Moustache? Dilallo's? The Mapes?
