Picky point: the WLW DJ who's on "Vivienne!" spells
his last name LaBarbara. I wanted to beat everyone
to the punch on that. I remember picking him up at
night when I lived in Birmingham in the early '70s
(although my favorite out-of-town stations were WLS
Chicago and KMOX St. Louis; on the latter I used to
listen to Blues games).
