THE REAL DON STEELE
KHJ Los Angeles
May 30, 1969 (UNSCOPED)

(Contributor: Tom Howard)

We're celebrating the 60th anniversary of Boss Radio in Los Angeles with two of KHJ's biggest stars.

Last week, we heard morning man Robert W. Morgan from May 8, 1968. This week, it's his counterpart in afternoon drive, The Real Don Steele. The groundbreaking Boss Radio format, which debuted May 5, 1965, reduced DJ talk and narrowed playlists but both Morgan and Steele shone despite the limitations.

Enjoy The Real Don Steele on KHJ from May 30, 1969 (UNSCOPED) ... in the Aircheck of The Week.

NEXT UPDATE: May 25

Each week we dig deep into the Rock Radio Scrapbook vault for more aircheck gold!
