"Now the taste is bitter."
Suskind over at Drawing the Line has a great post on the long, sad decline and fall of Radio station KSFO, from iconic jazz station to hate-fueled elimination-station.
In the mid seventies I lived in San Francisco, where one of the many splendors was the thriving jazz scene. It was a joy to tune into KSFO and listen to Jazzbeau Collins, coming from The Purple Grotto.
(snip)
The nighttime was really the only time to hear Al Collins. He was soft and gentle and soothing and cool like a thumbnail moon.
He passed away this week after a lifetime in Bay Area and New York City radio. When I knew him best, and I knew him only as a listener, he was the night guy on KSFO.
That's when KSFO was the world's greatest radio station -- so sophisticated, so full of personality that it's hard to believe there really was such a place on the airwaves.
Por favor go read the whole theeng. He draws on the memories of S.F. journalistos Mark Simon and Herb Caen to aid een thees bittersweet remembrance of a once-proud San Francisco icon.
Suskind has offered us a small peek eento what KSFO was like een eet's hayday, before eet became SNUFF RADIO-560AM.

Ah, you can always tell the wingnut trolls because they always seem to be typing with six broken fingers and their eyes closed. Wish I could have heard Mike serving it up to the whingenuts.
Anyone get a recording they can post?

I must say this troll is a great disappointment. Tacitus showed up at LGM today -- now there's a troll with some flair, some elan!
I imagine Mike will be putting up the recording.
