Bill Hardy (AKA Billy Two Beers) relates the following
Ahhhhh Yes… late 1950’s WLAC Nashville Tenn. 1910 on your AM dial ( FM didn’t exist! lol)
Herman Grizzard (died 1971, Nashville, Tennessee) was an American radio disc jockey who attained fame from the 1940s through the 1970s for playing rhythm and blues and music on Nashville radio station WLAC. Grizzard was one host of a nightly series of four programs on the station. He shared the block of programs with “John R.” Richbourg, Bill “Hoss” Allen, and Gene Nobles. Together they were known as the “50,000 Watt Quartet”.
Don’t think Herman’s show started till around 11 or 12. But I luved his theme song… After Hours!
Do you remember it?
