Though it has only been on KBOO for a couple of years, Self Help Radio began in October 2002 in Austin, Texas, on a station called KOOP. A community radio station like KBOO, it also had in its call letters one K & two Os. Twenty years later, Self Help Radio celebrates its twentieth anniversary on KBOO.
On anniversary shows, Self Help Radio revisits an old theme. In this case, it's our favorite music from 1970. Not wanting to repeat ourselves, we didn't play anything we played previously - a playlist you can see here. Luckily there was more than enough music we loved from 1970 to fill an entirely new show - in fact, we probably could have filled three more hours!
Contributors to the show past & present came to visit, & there was plenty of history & reminiscing. But mostly it was about the music.
Party's over! Time to start year twenty-one.
