KDIA 1310 Oakland - George Oxford - Febuary 22 1963 - Radio Aircheck

KDIA 1310 Oakland - George Oxford - Febuary 22 1963 - Radio Aircheck For decades, the call letters KDIA were synonymous with soul music in San Francisco. From the 1950s, through the 1990s, this little 1,000 watt signal, was a giant with fans of R&B music. Eventually the station raised it’s power to 5,000, and it really started to cook as Lucky 1310. Some of the legendary names that worked on air at KDIA include George Oxford, Rosko (who later moved to NYC radio), Bob White, John Hardy, & Belva Davis, who eventually moved on to television at KPIX-TV. The station also helped launch the career of Sly Stone, who was on air at KDIA in the mid-1960s. It was an influential R&B station. This aircheck features George Oxford who spent many years on wake up duty at KDIA in the 1960s. Feel free to check out some of the many other videos on the Ellis B Feaster's Radio Channel! Established in 2008! One of You Tube's oldest RADIO AIRCHECK MUSEUM with a NEW VIDEO posted daily at 3PM EST. After over 40 years working on the radio, I have recorded lots of radio airchecks, and many from my friends as well. You'll find audio of many radio personalities who have passed away. Lots radio recordings from the 1940s, through the 2010. We also talk about radio broadcasting. If you happen to have classic airchecks, maybe even of yourself on the air, we'd love to share it here! We also share videos about Travel & Cruising. I share tips on how I travel cheaply, so you can do it also! Find me on Facebook:   / ellisairchecks
