Turn Up the Radio!
National Radio Day
-- Radio is more than the warm sound from a Neumann U87, NPR's virtual house microphone. Radio is the lives we touch. This is a time for communities across the country to celebrate the radio. The goal is to strengthen the radio ecosystem, highlighting all kinds of radio, but especially stations that focus on local service.

Read: Turn Up the Radio! Rock, Pop, and Roll in Los Angeles 1956-1972
-- Combining oral and illustrated history with a connective narrative, Turn Up the Radio! captures the zeitgeist of the Los Angeles rock and pop music world between the years of 1956 and 1972. Featuring hundreds of rare and previously unpublished photographs and images of memorabilia, this collection highlights dozens of iconic bands and musicians, including the Doors, the Beach Boys, Buffalo Springfield, the Byrds, CSN, the Monkees, the Rolling Stones, Ike, and Tina Turner, Elvis Presley, Eddie Cochran, Ritchie Valens, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Frank Zappa, Thee Midniters, Sonny and Cher, and many others.

About Catherine: I have been writing frugal tips since 1982, when I was a young divorced mom of two - for my baby product company, Born to Love. I am now mom to three sons, who are all grown up - and re-married to a wonderful man. We have rescued two little dogs, Denny and Dexter - and Bella, the cat.
