Dear Little Ol' Winemaker, History does repeat itself. Perhaps you have some unfulfilled business that only you and I (and Raechel) remember? Time draws nigh to redeem a Karmic Duty.   updated  May 11, 2003 it remain here until I hear from you     Once Upon A Time Tom Donahue didn't invent Underground Radio. "Big Daddy" sure fathered it. Tom was so virile, Corporations started buying baby FMs.  Greed started warping Underground into Top 40 FM, destroying the very Format they purchased. Tom and music-in-his-soul friend Francis Coppola were horrified. And each felt their Power to DO Something About It! DEAL:  Soundtrack for a Lifestyle Francis Coppola and Tom Donahue shook hands and each agreed:  Francis would buy KMPX, Tom would reprogram a Lifestyle Soundtrack free from payola Inc., and every night at 7PM the music pauses for a LIVE Radio Drama broadcast from Coppola's Theatre. We would Save The Segue — Save The rEvolution! Scant hours later, Big Daddy Tom Donahue went home and died from an excess of Happiness! His Heart burst with joy—literally.  And with him went our last best chance to save Creative Radio. April 28, 1975. The Day The Music Died. The KMPX Studio - our Oct. 1970 brochure art and blueprint for a (Donahue?) Music Library There is very little History about Tom Donahue at KMPX, but here is the excellent Site covering his days at KSAN NOT "the original", yet CLEARLY the Greatest Radio Station in History. Did you ever see this KMPX "Tantra" business card? Can you believe I found it? At least, that is how I spin your Legend and Lifestyle Legacy, Francis. thus far...   For want of a horseshoe nail... When is the last time You heard a segue? FM today is 99% narrowcasting. MTV is 100% Payola. Now Clear Channel owns 80%+ of Rock Radio. Big Brother Programming. Combined effect: an entire Generation of Kids with zero connection between Music and Spirit.     WE are The Ones we've been waiting for. I am writing to you (again) to suggest (again) we are at long last arrived at our last best Perfect Moment to resume The rEvolvution.     DEAL:  The Lifestyle of a Lifetime Hey - I'm no Tom Donahue. I possess not a whit of his powerful Personality. Far less charisma. Likely fit ten of me into his pants, if not his shoes. Yet I swear unto you I have The Vision to carry on. Ready to do the Work to re-make our rEvolution! Thus, I should prove a Marketable Relic— the "safe" remake of a proven Hit. To do it to MTV like FM did it to AM if backed by YOU—and an underwriter like...
