Scott Muni died yesterday

Re: Scott Muni Dead Yeah, I wasn't listening to Scotso's Beatles lunch break for a long time but to me, its not just his death but a passing of a great time of Rock Radio.

I'm not sure how many of you were teen agers or young adults in the seventies but man, that was the time of really FM Rock radio. When FM was really freeform and late at night you would be taken to a world of music totally beyond anything you will ever hear again.
WPLJ, WNEW and even WPIX when it was totally punk rock (remember that?, whatever happened to Jane Hamburger).

You just don't understand, now FM is everything it was against. It was the alternative to WNBC. WABC and even WWRL. Back then, people would just play anything they found off the streets or buried in their private collections. College radio tried to be like WNEW or WPLJ.
Who needed to keep putting records on the turntable especially when you were too high to when FM Radio probably were playing shit that you didn't even own anyway.

Yeah, Scott Muni was a dinosaur, that world of rock is now as obscure as a radio station that doesn't have a playlist. Still if not for him and other Jocks back in the sixties and seventies, well, speaking soley for myself, I know this old black chick would still be stuck in top forty hell. They expanded my mind musically and make me the rabid rock and roller that I'll always remain and for that, I'll be forever grateful.

Rest in Peace, Scott Muni, Strawberry fields forever!

Love, Barbara
