I had a request from Don McCoy and Danny Dare to see these pictures. I posted them before, but I think people would like to see them again. And thanks again to Vic Moreno, who originally sent these to me.

KFXM This Week In 1969
For those who are interested, the KFXM chart is so much different than the national music chart for March 1, 1969. #1 nationally was Everyday People. #2 Crimson & Cover-Tommy James/Shondells which dropped off KFXM 2 weeks ago. Also on the national top ten, Build Me Up Buttercup, Touch Me-Doors (#1 on KFXM a month and a half ago), and This Magic Moment. Also You Showed Me-Turtles, Dizzy-Tommy Roe, Worst That Could Happen-Brooklyn Bridge, Baby Baby Don't Cry-Smokey & The Miracles on the national top ten. These last four fell off the KFXM charts about a month ago. They appeared to be ahead of the rest of the country at this time.

30 Years Ago KFXM
KFXM 30 years ago
No KMEN surveys in 1983, not even a KOLA survey.
In 1983 the KFXM survey was back to a Top 40 +
Some of the djs on KFXM at this time were Craig Powers, Jeff Kelly, Dave Murphy and Lisa Dillon.
Can anyone tell me any other DJs on KFXM in 1983?

35 Years Ago
35 years ago Stayinn' Alive-Bee Gees was #1 on KFXM, but there were no K/MEN surveys. None since 1973. But below I have the KOLA survey with the same #1 song. But besides that, the songs are quite different from one survey to the other.
The flip side of both surveys had the same ad.

KFXM TigerRadio Jim Zippo
From
the missing TigerRadio website Jim Zippo
This is the last KFXM Biography that I have, unless some KFXM DJ that has not been included wants to submit his biography to me. Also any and all KMEN biographies are welcome.
Remember this is from the the now missing in action KFXM website and I did not write this.

Searching for KFXM Surveys
Back in 1989 I had decided that maybe I would be able to enlarge my collection of KFXM and K/men surveys. At this point I didn't have many surveys from before 1965 and a lot of gaps in surveys after 1973. One of the first steps I took was writing to radio station KRSO (sadly no longer KFXM) and received this response. I ran into this letter today while looking through some old files, so I thought I would share it. It was nice to get a response, but not the one I wanted. The blocked out section was my address at the time. Did not want whoever lives there now to get correspndence meant for me.

KFXM K/MEN 40 Years Ago today
Let's move ahead 10 years. If you remember 1973, you won't be thinking it was 40 years ago, but it was.
The Rolling Stones in concert. Whatever happened to them?
No Creedence Clearwater Revival on the charts, but we have the Blue Ridge Rangers on both surveys. Arranged, produced, sung and playing all instruments by John Fogerty

1972 Top Hits (Your Choice)
!972 was the last year K/MEN printed up a Top Hits of the year to be distributed. Their last survey was August 10, 1973, so no 1973 Top 100
The official KFXM Top 100 of 1972. #95 is actually Keeper Of The Castle-Four Tops
My calculated hits of 1972 from the KFXM surveys
