John Lennon 75th Birthday - Stephen K. Peeples on KCSN-FM, Pt. 1/4
Stephen K. Peeples, the original award-winning writer-producer Westwood One’s "Lost Lennon Tapes” radio series (1988-1990), was guest DJ on “Saturday with The Beatles hosted by Les Perry (The Saturday Club),” broadcast on KCSN-FM 88.5-Northridge/Los Angeles Saturday morning, Oct. 3, 2015.
The program’s focus was what would have been ex-Beatle John Lennon’s 75th birthday, as well as the 40thth birthday of Sean Taro Ono Lennon, Lennon and Yoko Ono’s son. Both were born Oct. 9 (1940 and 1975, respectively).
Oct. 3, 2015 was also Peeples’ 64th birthday. The guest-DJ stint was a special gift arranged by Ruth Peeples, his sister and fellow Beatles and Lennon fan (also a California State University, Northridge alum, and Golden Mike-winning KCSN-FM news reporter).
Peeples was accompanied on the air by David C. Kephart, the original “Lost Lennon Tapes” engineer-producer. Many of the elements heard in this birthday celebration first aired in “LLT” in its first two years on the air, 1988-1989.
The “Saturday with The Beatles” broadcast was the very first to originate from KCSN’s brand-new satellite studio at the Village at Topanga Plaza, in Canoga Park, Calif.
Also in the studio: Ruth Peeples; Nadine A. Peeples, Stephen’s wife; and Paige Hagen, his associate producer and videographer.
