Radio had the power to move people then. And deejays seized it. In the 1950s\, a h andful of AM pioneers introduced white America to black rhythm and blue s. Then New York deejay Alan Freed changed the course of American histor y by branding it 'rock and roll.' In the glory years of rock radio\, pe rsonalities like Cousin Brucie\, Murray the K\, Dan Ingram\, Jerry Blava t\, Dick Biondi\, Casey Kasem and Wolfman Jack ruled the airwaves.But fr om its earliest roots\, rock radio had powerful enemies. In 1960\, prodd ed by big-business interests\, Congress held 'payola' hearings to target the deejays guilty of breaking down economic and racial barriers. Deej ays like Alan Freed were booted off the air. Program director and radio consultants took control. Deejays could no longer play their own music. Rock radio became bland and predictable.Then came a new wave of deejay s who set up shop on the FM dial. 'Top 40 is dead\,' Declared Tom Dona hue in San Francisco. 'And its rotting corpse is stinking up the airwave s.' They discovered bands like the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane \, igniting a cultural revolution that helped end the Vietnam War. Until FM\, too\, was silenced by FCC intimidation and corporate greed. And 60 s rock became 70s disco.When rock radio lost its soul\, a flame went out . 'Airplay' pays tribute to those unsung heroes--and the promise of a re birth on satellite radio. It's a story of love and war\, told by the dee jays and the artists they made rock stars. It celebrates a time when we all listened together and it changed our lives.
