great memories

Having grown up listing to KJR radio and going to the Spanish Castle in high school I found this great reading and reminising old times.

B.Howard must have been in a band that Pat turned away!

I am incapable of putting this book down. Pat, thank you for sharing your life with me. My parents went to the Spanish Castle. I went to the Lake Hills Roller rink. (not sure if you still handled the Lake Hills gig when I went in the 70') I laugh outloud every time I think about the Tony Orlando story.

So, Who was Louie Louie???

Ahhh the memories, i grew up going to dances put on by Pat O'Day, and attended many of the events in the book. Pat has managed to capture those times to the tee! If you are a native Seattlite and a baby boomer, this book is required reading.Even more important, if you are a "transplant" as most of my friends are, and continually bewildered by groups of "locals", teary eyed, sing Louie Louie--over and over. Or if you get a scoffing pathetic glance when you shamefully admit that you do not know who Bill Muncey was. Then this book is your life saver, your oasis in the desert of the "newcomer"

All Just Rock & Roll

As a baby boomer this is an enjoyable story of a guy who did it all in radio and Rock & Roll. It is filled with funny tails and alot of laughs and tells how the business really worked in the 60's and 70's. Highly recommended to anyone between 30 and 70!

It Was All Just Rock And Roll

This book is simply wonderfull. It brings those years of rock and roll and radio's infancy to life. The writer also has a great sense of humor because he seemed to see the fun side of things. Here is a total insider that tells rock and roll and radio stories as only one who has been there can! The book also is the first I've read to tell the story of the real Jimi Hendrix! I couldn't put it down.
