| Message | I'm a midwest guy from Michigan but in the late 60's I was 22 years old and stationed at McClellan AFB....(that too is gone now I'm told)I lived off base at some apartments on Marconi Blvd. Everytime I jumped into my car the pushbutton AM radio was permanetly set to KROY. What a hip station.....the jingles rocked and so did the music and the DJ's. I have very fond and fuzzy memories of my time in sacramento and weekend trip to San Fran and Lake Tahoe. Thanks for the memories...........this site is a BLAST and you guys rock. I'm 61 years old now but after this visit to KROY I feel like a kid again! John in Grand Rapids |

| Message | KROY: It's almost 2008 and I'm on the internet seeking contact info to KROY Radio not realizing it vanished from the airwaves in 1982. I was raised on KROY. That was the closest we could get to a colored station. Most of what I know about music is based on growing up with the artists they played. That is how I first heard the beatles, Marvin Gaye, the Surpremes, Louis Armstrong, and Santana, and most everybody else I love to this day. But I wanted to know about Jimi Hendrix. My memory tells me it was 'Wild Thing' back in '67, but it may have been some other JH tune they initiated on KROY. I graduated from Burbank in '76 and left Sac in '77 basically, I've been on the east coast ever since. Anyway, I was just trying inquiring about the first Jimi Hendrix song KROY ever broadcast because that is when first connected to Jimi. I'm not saying KROY was the greatest station in the world but that's all we had to listen to, or KRAK which played nothing but Country music, which we got tired of. Maybe I should contact KRAK. Do they exist? Do people still listen to country in Sacramento? Do they still have a station? Sincerely, Luther Burbank, Class of '76 Myron Briggs |

| Message |  Listened to KROY mainly from '68 to '70 and met several of the KROY DJ's. I worked with KROY DJ "DUDLEY - aka Bill Thompson" at KAOR in Oroville in 1969. Met "Hal Murray" when he worked at KMYC in Marysville in 1969. Met the great "Bob Sherwood" in late 1969 when he gave me and my friend Scott Roberts a tour of KROY. What a blast it was to meet these guys! KROY has to be my favorite AM Top 40 station of all times. KROY, and stations like, her made you feel they were really a part of your community. Not like now when everything is so canned and phoney. Best wishes to all KROY folks who brought so much fun to the airways so many years ago! |

| Message | I was born in Woodland,Ca.in 1963. Grew up AND was raised in Roseville& SACRA-TOMATO. I STILL remember KROY KARES-ABOUT YOU. I live in Tucson,Az. But my heart is still a SAC CHICK. FRUITRIDGE MOVIE DRIVE-IN. And downtown Sac. K-R-O-Y I can STILL hear that JINGLE. I think it was KROY who brought to life-that song CAST YOUR FATE TO THE WIND. And the LEFT BANKES songs WALK AWAY RENEE-PRETTY BALLERINA. Just to name a few. Thank KROY for giving me such wonderful CHILDHOOD memories. AND I STILL "KARE" ABOUT U! |
