WLOL: 1956
On July 31, 1956, Will Jones of the Trib reported that Leigh Kamman at WLOL was playing
Teresa Brewer’s recording of “Sweet, Old-Fashioned Girl” in which she kids the bejeebers out of rock and roll. Second up was “A Teen-Ager Sings the Blues” in which a young girl gets very torchy over a soda. Suggested sequel “Banana Split for One, Please, James.” Steve Cannon’s pick for new hit of the week is something called “I’m in Love with Elvis Presley” sung by someone named Virginia Lowe.
