K/mentertainer March 1, 1969

The year of the reamkes. K/men list what songs that fall in that category that are hitting the charts again. Nine songs this week. The Grammys were later in 1969. Anyone remember who won? By looking back, it's probably easier to figure out who should have won.

Interesting article about how KFXM decides which records to play. Which of the Jones Boys wrote this article?

Looks like I won something on the Big Buddy Bag Contest, at least my name was in the contest winner list, along with my brother Dennis Calgaro. I don't remember getting a customized KFXM pen. Maybe this is the first time I noticed this. Then again, maybe I didn't care about a pen in 1969.
