In response to WORJ-FM being mentioned in a recent post:
I have this list of 9 p.m. album features from WORJ dating from
1972-1973-ish. They would play new LP's in their entirety from
Hawkwind, Amon Duul 2, T. Rex, Todd Rundgren, ELP, ELO, and even stuff
by Butts Band, Jo Jo Gunne, Ramatam, Osibisa, John Kongos, etc. when
it came out. In other words, the station turned a lot of us Floridians
on to prog & other decent groundbreaking rock bands. Too bad they're
gone! What a powerhouse of an influential radio station they
were--causing me to make many trips into Bruce Baer Records in Winter
Park; bicycling in from De Land to pick up the cassette versions.
