Default Remember CKLW?

I ordered copies of this for my wife and her sisters for Christmas. It's a great history / reunion DVD with the old regulars from CKLW - the motor city. Parts were on the Channel 56 fund raiser in late November.

I lived in northern Ohio growing up, and could get CKLW very clearly. Then FM rock took over in the early / mid 70s.

I remember it very well in the music days. It still exists as a news/talk station that I listen to often.

Sure do. My sister went to high school with the traffic copter women, Jo Jo, I think. She's still around and they talk once in a while.
