Wolfman Jack Is Back!

The legendary 60s broadcaster WOLFMAN JACK, immortalised in the film "American Graffiti," is back on the air, howling and rocking all over Europe from a highpowered radiostation in Lithuania.
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release)Jul 18, 2008 – Just as in Britain teenagers in the 1960s would listen into pirate radiostations broadcasting from ships at sea, three miles off the coast, so in the United States youngsters would tune their new personal transistor radios into powerful signals beamed from across the border in Mexico. King of the Airwaves on these Border-Blasters was WOLFMAN JACK, who between records of The Beatles and The Beachboys would howl, grunt, and tell some seriously good jokes. He also built a loyal following that made the name WOLFMAN synonamous with Rock'n'Roll. He kept  his true identity secret until 1973 when at last his audience could see him in person in the George Lucas film "American Graffiti."
Although WOLFMAN JACK (real name Bob Smith,) died some ten years ago, his fans are still loyal, and for aficionados of 60s music radiostations across America are rebroadcasting some of the old shows, and American Forces Radio features some of the best. Now a Dutch company who trade in communications equipment has bought the licence to rebroadcast the Wolfman all over Europe. So now, if you have a Worldband Radio, you can
tune into 6055 kHz shortwaves between 10.30 and 11.30 each weekday evening and relive the halcyon days of  popradio, complete with fading and whistle characteristic of listening to a distant illicit transmitter. The WOLFMAN lives on! HOWWWWL!
