NEW REVIEWS 2024

I absolutely adored it.   Kris Welch, host of “Talkies” on KPFA-FM, Berkeley CA

An awesome project (in all senses of the word). You secured for history material that would otherwise be lost. By its nature, live radio is extraordinarily hard to preserve—impossible, in fact, because as soon as it is no longer live it is something else entirely. But your book preserves it conceptually and preserves what was behind the curtain during a pivotal moment in radio and world events.   Peter Laufer, co-author with Shelia Swan, Neon Nevada, coming in May 2024

If you’ve ever wondered about how FM radio changed the music world and fostered the “counterculture” this is the book to read. The writer obviously knows the players but he’s smart enough to let them do the talking most of the time. So you get an inside view of who did what and when.  Dan Cohen, Powell’s Books.

This book kicks ass.  Peter Nevins, printmaker/troublemaker/troubadour

And now… stand by for this brief, but semi-accurate historical recap…

The whole thing was luck, really. Taking the Muni #7 down Market every morning at 5 to the corner of Sansome and Sacramento Streets.  I started in the “Gnus Department,” ripping wire copy (AP, UPI, Reuters) for brilliant Gnus staffers like Dave McQueen, Larry Bensky, Jo Jo Rosenzweig-Greene, Chris Stanley and others.  I also contributed comey to Stephen Capen’s “Morning Product,” where Capen did whatever he wanted, 9 to noon.

Best radio gig ever, folks.

Forty years on, I started compiling Jive stories. I’d always wonder what the early days (1967…) were all about. .I took on the project begun by Jeff House, a literature teacher in San Jose, in narrative form. These original “freaks” and “heads” and “straights” who created something wonderful out of nothing, now share the tales-to-astonish directly. The result is The Jive 95: An oral history of America’s first and greatest hippie underground FM radio station, KMPX/KSAN in San Francisco, published by Globe/Pequot’s Backbeat Books. It has a lot of “moving parts” as editor John Cerullo says, including transcribed interviews (John Lennon, twice), annotations, as well as secret tapes liberated from the Jive basement around the time of my firing. Plus! QR codes link readers to Donahue and DJs, Gnus reportage, and psychedelical psychedelia presented as wholesome hippie entertainment. So please to just ignore the publisher’s recommended age of 16+…

Invented in 1967 by  radio revolutionary  Tom Donahue (seen above in his natural environment), the broadcasting coup that took place at KMPX in 1967 took the medium somewhere never heard before. Thanks to aural masters (Voco, Larry Miller, Howard Hesseman, Carl Gottlieb, Milan Melvin, Bob McClay, et al) wax fanatics across the Bay Area got hipped to jazz, blues, folk, folk-rock, rock, soul, classical—anything the free-spirited DJ wanted to play. In FM stereo. Another new concept for a new generation just tuning into what was going down all around them. Ben Fong-Torres, Rolling Stone editor and Jive DJ, said: “What made KSAN special was its connection to the San Francisco community, to the generation and the culture. It knew its audience because it was part of its audience.” DJs used music as their weapon and comedy their kiss to communicate with the growing audience. Young Americans turning into activists opposing the wars  in Vietnam and at home. Listener-citizens marching for civil rights justice. Becoming their own voices for real good change. “Big Daddy” Donahue blew the old media away: his DJs spun music so far out–“What was that?”—an uninterrupted LP side became something to tape with reel-to-reel or cassette tapeage. In the beginning, the kids dug hearing the local bands they were already dancing to in local ballrooms: The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin, Big Brother & the Holding Company, Santana, Van Morrison, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Hot Tuna, Commander  Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen —  the San Francisco Sound! Too many others to mention, except for Sly & The Family Stone, Country Joe  & The Fish, Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks, CCR, Steve Miller and his blues makers. Jesse Colin Young and the Youngbloods were singing their anthem, “Come on people now, smile on your brother, everybody ‘Get Together,’ try to love one another right now…”

Scoop Nisker. His “Last News Show” enlightened KSAN listeners, 1968-79.

In 1967, the listening audience was part of a booming peace & luv “youthquake.” Connecting with each other and the cosmos, their scene had scents of patchouli, skunk weed and tear gas. The Jive 95 spread its seeds across the land—by 1968 there we underground listening posts in NYC, Boston,  Detroit, Philly, from Cleveland and Chicago to Miami, Seattle, New Orleans, L.A—to your town, too?  These stations were the Craigslist & Facebook of their day: you got info on where to rally or meet and greet other people into whatever they were. The ecology. Feminism. Black, Gay, Chicano movements. Calls for drug-legalization and an other counterculturally conscious edges of a new age. Freedom of expression flew in the face of repressive clampdowns. The authorities were reactionary bummer-makers of mainstream culture (Yeah, still here).

 

“Morning Product” Stephen Capen, KSAN’s coyote from late ’70s to the end of everything Jive.

 

Their 1970s morning show (Tom O’Hair & Dave McQueen) often started on time.

So Jiveheads, head out to yer local beat/hippie/hip-hop/folk/jazz/experimental/punk & classical bookstore! Take a magical mythical trip through, “the station of your wildest dreams.”  History created by brilliant humans in their “twenty-somethings” (!),  some settled in “elder ashrams,” none seeming to settle for an entertainment nation that is eating itself, stories told by a chatbot, who really doesn’t give a shit. Take in an event, take out a book, be like Audre Lorde, “deliberate and afraid of nothing.” And read, read, read, read…some of this stuff really happened, folks! (and the parts not included will be available on Jive 95.com)

(Due to a dispute with publishing house–they changed our contract without letting me know–the book lacks an Index. Which was absurd.  I will arrange into three columns as soon as possible. Please forgive me technopeasantry)

    LOOK FOR KSAN DOCUMENTARY
    Conceived by KSAN’s Kenny Wardell, directed by Jesse Block, produced by Eric Christensen and KSAN’s Jim Draper

    hi, I have 80+ KSAN recordings on FM Radio Archive, including concert broadcasts and airchecks. I was a listener and fan of the station and was fortunate enough to hear it before Tom Donahue passed in 1975. Check out these recordings, you’ll find some interesting stuff. Good luck! Kim Paris

    Thanks, Kim! How were you able to obtain these wonderful tapes?
    The book is arriving in July, alas, so I can’t add anything new now.
    “The Jive 95: An Oral History of America’s First Underground Station, KSAN San Francisco” is from Backbeat Books. Are you still in Bay Area? I’ll be reading from the book in late summer-early fall I hope!

    I’ve been listening to those for years—fantastic stuff, Kim. Hope you enjoy THE JIVE 95 oral history! It’s out August 15. Do you live near SF? We’re having a book launch party at The Beat Museum in North Beach (perfect spot for this) August 19 7 pm!

    Hank –

    Are you planning any book events in So. Calif./West L.A./Venice/Santa Monica…?

    BN.com is winging my fresh new copy of The Jive 95 my way, as we speak (read/write)…

    Peace,

    — Hal B.

    Hal, I’m in the Bay Area until mid-November. Hope to gather some friends for an event in Santa Monica or LA after that, thanks!

  7. Hank Rosenfeld said...

    Hi Hal, Thanks for asking but I think I’ve completed west coast swing for this book. I did have a piece on KQED public radio in San Francisco that mentioned the book in February 2024. But I’m helping two friends with their memoirs this spring and summer…

  8. (Sleepy) John Cuthbertson said...

    Glad to hear you got the book finished – I hope the material I shared with you helped…congratulations!!

  9. Hank Rosenfeld said...

    Yes Sleepy JC–all the CDs and stories helped the book a helluva lot. As I heard some NFL football players say, “APPRECIATE YOU!”
