About this product

Product Information

This Rock-radio memoir goes behind the scenes at the nation's hottest station during FM's heyday in the late 1970s to the mid-1980s. Sex and drugs, music and merchandising--it was a wild time when the FM airwaves were wide open for innovation. John Gorman led a small band of true believers who built Cleveland's WMMS from a neglected stepchild into an influential powerhouse. The station earned high praise from top musicians and even higher ratings from listeners. Gorman explains how WMMS reinvented radio and how Cleveland earned it's claim as the Rock and Roll capitol by breaking dozens of major international music acts. The fun eventually died when FM went corporate in the late 1980s, but it was a heck of a ride while it lasted! For baby boomers who listened in during those glory days when FM was king--and the new generation of internet broadcasters working radio's new frontier.
