Hello everybody, Jim Hampton here. You know, after leaving WLS in Chicago for Los Angeles, I worked with Ken Draper and Chuck Blore at Programming DB.  There, I learned so much about radio programming, production and syndication. Later, during the mid 70’s, I got into my own business, the ‘Programme Shoppe,’ and enticed my good friend and Detroit DJ, Dave Prince, to come out to California to work with me.

We did all kinds of radio projects together; programmed radio stations; produced tons of radio shows to distribute around the world.  One was called 90 Minutes With . . .’ and, every week the show featured an artist or a theme.

I just found one of these shows: 90 Minutes with the 1950’s.”  It is a musical tribute to that era, hosted by Dave Prince, consulted by oldies historian Jim Pewter, produced at the Kris Erik Stevens studio in LA, and written and produced by yours truly, Jim Hampton.

The seventies were the best of days for me in L.A.  Very creative. Very lucrative. Very fun. By the way, check out the pictures. That’s Dave, and that’s me (with the beard) the way we looked back when, working together in the ’70s. And that’s Dave Prince in the photo below. Taken sometime during his stay, mid-late ’70s, while working with me in Los Angeles.

I hope you enjoy hearing ’90 Minutes with the 1950’s.’ Keep it here on Motor City Radio Flashbacks. More to come! J. Hampton
