  1. Great stuff in the WAX TO WATCH.
    I noticed a Dionne Warwick tune.
    This is her first appearance on
    the charts.

    Does KFXM have the B side listed
    instead of DON"T MAKE ME OVER, which was her first hit at about
    this time in late 62.

    A booboo????

  2. As the years go by, some of
    the KFXM jocks migrate to KMEN.
    Never was there a defection
    from KMEN to KFXM until
    November 1971: Bruce Chandler.
    The only one.

    Warwick flip. Missed on the
