'Twas the week before Christmas, when all through the station,

Not a single Yuletide song was playing, and you can't blame in on automation.

This aircheck of KBLA in mid-December 1966 shows how one rock station approached Christmas at that time. Nowadays you might expect a Christmas song or two in any given half-hour but in the case of this aircheck, there's absolutely nada.

Ever laid-back Humble Harv plays an eclectic mix of Rolling Stones, Seekers, Four Seasons and more. But in those days before wall-to-wall Christmas music (or in this case ANY Christmas music) you'd have to look elsewhere for your holiday music mix.
