Pastor Brother John Rydgren
Brother John Rydgren was a market legend in L.A.! I remember listening to a Christian Top 40 Countdown show as a kid called Powerline with Brother John, not the same Brother John. In 1986-88 KRTH AM 930 used Brother John voice tracks 20 Hours a day, and Dave Hull did Mornings at Smokin' Oldies©. Plus KRTH FM played his weekend spiritual show "Heaven is in your mind". It was some years earlier that Brother John suffered a serious stroke on the air during that program, they found him just making noises. He never was the same, but he did get his voice back!
By the way Batman, I had Hours of Brother John airchecks from AM 930. Do a Google search on Brother John Rydgren, and you will find some of his really far out religious work on Mp3. Mind expanding, bring out the Bat Bong. There has to be more from his ABC "Love Network", WPLJ, KABC, KRTH & KRLA days too! (He worked some great Gigs)
