The Captain signing on with C&W style tune, IDs produced by Andre of Cool AM Radio. Poor conditions tonite, only SIO: 222
Ventura Highway  at 0125.  It Never Rains In Southern California came out in 1972 or 3 when I was in college and did receive a lot airplay at the time. I remember playing the 45 until it wore out.
