A MCRFB Note: Only the third WKNR music guide having been published, this Keener 13 playlist was issued Thursday, November 21, 1963. The day before WKNR abruptly stopped playing the music, Friday, November 22. For the next four days, the WKNR news department and the Mutual Broadcasting Network took control of the news out coming out of Dallas and Washington (2:00 p.m. Detroit, EST) after the first Mutual bulletin broke over the wires (1:40 p.m.) President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, 56 years ago.

This is the fourth of four rare (November) WKNR Music Guides featured on the site this month.
All four issues were digitally restored by Motor City Radio Flashbacks.

The WJBK FORMULA 40 hits was compiled, tabulated and produced by Radio 1500’s Bob Martin and Rosemary McGann.
This survey was tabulated overall by each record’s popularity and its appeal, sales, listener requests and record airplays based on the judgement of WJBK Radio.

Previewed for the week of November 11, 1957
Note: By year’s end, 1957, Casey Kasem was no longer at WJBK 1500. Kasem left Detroit for Buffalo’s WBNY, New York, in November 1957. To fill Kasem’s departure, Dan Baxter became the new replacement. Baxter was hired for the all-night shift on WJBK.
Eventually, by early-1958 Tom Clay would fill the time slot allocated the same hours Casey Kasem held prior his exit on WJBK.
