In the late 60s beginning when I was maybe six years old I'd sneak an AM radio with earphone to bed and listen to Beaker Street and whatever else was on KAAY. I would listen till almost midnight. Years later I was in Grand Isle Louisiana and our truck radio picked up KAAY. I loved Beaker Street when I was a little kid.

Was Beaker Street the program that always started with a song by Peter Green? I was living in Yucatan at the time and friends and I would always go out to the beach to tune in a radio station from Little Rock. We got the best signal on the beach at about midnight.

Timeless memories and my favorite station during the late 60's and early 70's. I remember camping out in my back yard in Doolittle,Missouri and hearing KAAY on my little transistor radio. KAAY gave WLS The Big 89 in Chicago allot of competition back then. Hopefully someday soon KAAY will broadcast the songs we remember and so cherish from back then. How about an 8 hour classic hits-oldies format from 5 PM to 1 AM.

I listened to this radio station every morning before walking to Pike View Elementary off McCain Blvd in the early 70's. I still have a cassette tape I made with the Doors playing. Never heard them call it "K double A Y" any time I listened.

People today do not realize how far away AM radio carried back then after dark. Many stations went off at 500 or 600. I used to listen to Ft Worth station WBAP and Wolfmann in Chicago. But after midnight it was Clive Clifford and Beaker Street. My first time to hear "The End" by J Morrison, Blood Rock "DOA" and so many psychedelic sounds on the Saline River bank with bull frogs and Whiperwills in the background. I've met people from many states who told me they listened to Beaker Street. I really missed it. Hope Clive is well.

KAAY-FM during the 70's was a national craze for people looking for Progressive/Alternative Rock. The only radio station that came close was KSHE-FM out of St. Louis. I miss the old Beaker Street episodes. If you didn't live in Arkansas it was best to tune into KAAY late at night when they aired Beaker Street.

OMG, The place, a rural Iowa cornfield road, where the stars and the radio seemed to go on forever. The time, 1972, parking, sipping, and smoking, you know what to the sounds of Beaker Street and my generations version of Wolfman Jack, Clyde Clifford. Cool on Cool. Fast forward 20 years and I am somehow living in Little Rock, Ark. working at a hospital. I am told to "call the media department" for a photo of some medical malady. The "media department" arrives while my back is turned. A voice, a voice from somewhere way, way away, states "where do you want met o set up my camera?" The skin rose on the back of my neck, chills went down my spine. I slowly turned and saw the pride of the "mighty 1090", not the heroic hippie version I had imagined, but a professor type with beard and glasses, David Schidenswartz. a.k.a. Clive Clifford. I nearly swooned. Did ANYONE ever want Clive Clifford's autograph more than I did? The only OTHER autograph I EVER had to have besides his was either Wolfman Jack"s or Kris Eric Stevens. I NEVER worked up the nerve to ask for that autograph in front of my 20-something co-workers, who had never heard of him. He didn't seem in the mood anyway. I was star struck. For those of you today, it would be like meeting Vicci(sic) the House/Trans DJ of today, only 20 years after his popularity. Iconic voices go on forever. Are you still at UAMS Mr. Clifford? Best Wishes and you don't know how thankful I am for the memories!!

I grew up listening to KAAY on the skywave at night in New Orleans. It and WLS always sounded so different than our local Top 40s WNOE and WTIX, How lucky can one guy be? My first radio job was WNOE in 1971 and only a few years late in 1977 I was working at my other dream station, KAAY. Doing nights with 50,000 watts was incredible with request from Canada to Key West... I cherished every minute on the air at what was one of America's great radio stations.

Rob Robbins ruled the airwaves during his time during the mid-60's. He was great doing public appearances. He made teens buy lots of transistor radios and 9-volt batteries and helped crank up the youth movement which followed, along with the later Beaker Street program.

Back in 1969, David Treadway - Doc Holiday - and I were room mates in college. Dale Schidenswartz - Clyde Clifford - once gave me a complete vinyl collection of The Incredible String Band - which I still have. Ironically, back in high school in Hot Springs, I listened to WLS out of Chicago because KAAY didn't broadcast over the mountains to us.
