My question is
How many AM stations tripped off during the playing of Mini Riverton's "Loving You"?
Heard it on AT40 the 70s today and it reminded me of that 😅😅 our CCA at KLVI sure didn't like it..the plate often tripped off when it played...oh the good Ole days

I remember several country songs that gave our mono FM a faux stereo pilot signal and a bunch of noise in the studio. I don't know if labels were experimenting with "scamble" signals to prevent home taping or what the deal was.
