Please, does anyone know what became of David D. Rodgers, and when (and where) he passed away? I know he came to Saint Louis from KIMN, Denver, and later moved to KFWB, Los Angeles.

I seem to recall they used to air segments with George Harrison's sister Louise who lived in Southern Illinois at the time of the Beatles' rise to fame in the world

I didn't recognize you without your hat. Good Job

The greatest doc on St Louis and The U S brand of hit radio .. Gives me goosebumps , as I was a nightly / daily listener

I remember in my neighborhood in the sixties the catholic kids listened to WIL. Protestant, public school kids listened to KXOK,

Blab it to rhe Rab. KXOK secret sound. Tell it to Kay. Remember?

I remember a DJ on KXOK played "Alice's Restaurant " and got fired. LoL!

Oh, the nights I hung out next to the radio hoping to hear a Beatles song ...

One of my fondest. memories of KXOK was listening to the Wax Museum. on Sunday Nights. I also rember KXOK's News Broadcast of Forrest. Park Highlands burning down.

The guy that's on KMOX now is not the Johnny Rabbitt we all listened to and remember with Bruno J. Grunion.

Fantastic documentary. As many have already said, KXOK dominated radio in Saint Louis in the 60's and 70's. Many of these stations across the country like KXOK had personalities that dominated their markets. Stations like KHJ in LA had Robert W. Morgan and the "Real Don Steele", KLIF in Dallas had theirs as well. KXOK had Johnny Rabbitt. Every boomer growing up in Saint Louis knew every DJ on KXOX, but especially the Rabbitt.

For any one interested, Johnny Rabbit is STILL ON THE AIR.‼️ Only now on KMOX. Saturday nights. His show is: ROUTE-66‼️ Thanks for posting this. Great memories.📻🙂‼️

I've listened to this twice. Thanks so much, Dennis, for the memories. I'm old enough to remember when WIL and especially Jack Carney were the thing in the late 50's. When Jack left WIL and went to KMOX, seems like that was the death of WIL. A little mundane for teenagers until KXOK revved up. The magic created at KXOK was incomparable, prior to or since, by any other St. Louis station, and probably anywhere else. It's wonderful that this documentary has been created to tell the story of those involved for making the magic of listening to the radio in those years. Lol, I often wonder how boring my teens years would have been without KXOK. Again, thanks so much...!

Great documentary. I was born in ‘61. Mom listened all the time. (She worked at KMOX-tv) I refused to go to school until I heard “Chicken-Man”. Almost always listened in the car.🙂📻👍‼️ Heard Johny Rabbitt onKMOX now (Route 66) when I can pick it up down here in Jacksonville Florida. Thanks.

I was the night time host on KXOK from 1975 until 1978, one of the last of the great AM top 40’s. Nice job Dennis.

Love this. Brings back great memories. Thanks!

Thank you for the compliment. enjoy! Dennis Dailey, Producer

Thank you for the compliment. Enjoy !

I listened every night for years. Brings a smile.

What a wonderful documentary. I just turned 65, and this brings back so many good memories. I remember going to bed with my transistor radio and listening to the Rabbitt show until way too late. I was always thrilled when Bruno J showed up. Had no idea until recently that Don was doing the voice - I thought it was another radio personality. I feel very fortunate that I was a young teen during the heyday of KXOK.

Hear KXOK the way it sounded in the '60's, complete with music. Check out my playlists at 8tracks dot com slash bruno-j-grunion to hear the airchecks with the music.

ahhh, who living in the STL area in the 60's could ever forget KXOK.....Johnny Rabbitt and all. Almost every night I would take my little RCA transistor radio to bed with me with my ear plug and turn up the volume to max listen to the top 40 hits on am 630! My mom never knew all the times I did that. There was something very special about the music and the groups of the 1960's. Teens today listen to alot of garbage, lyrics full of drugs, hate and death....our songs back then were full of love, especially first loves, happiness and dreams of bright and wonderful futures. The negative lyrics of teen songs today shows in the teens of today too, in their general attitudes and of dreams that many feel can never be reached, very sad--- today's teens. Thank you--- 1960's!

best radio station of MY life

Glad this is out there, but can you maybe upload some uncut version if they are available?

To the person who posted below "St. Louis Flashback". This documentary was made as a educational film for the St Louis Community College. It's not now nor has ever been for sale. All photo's and video clips were obtained from the St. Louis Public Library media archives and all interviews were conducted by me and used with written permission. Although you won't post your name, I believe you are the same person that began sending derogatory e mails after the documentary won "Best Documentary" honorable mention at the St. Louis International Film Festival. Your emails continued forcing us to threaten legal action. I assume you intend to start again with the diatribe. ALL OF THE PHOTO'S, INTERVIEWS and DIALOG are in public domain or the property of the producers. I expect you to remove your slanderous comments from this site or we will have to take further action. Dennis A. Dailey Supervising Producer A View From The Top - KXOK in the 60's

these people that did this documentary rob me blind, used alot of my video clips which I put together from film to video ,didn't bother to ask me or even give me credit, as a matter of fact without those clips they wouldn't have had a documentary
