Event Details

The Library is excited to welcome back Joey Leone and his band for a program this evening!  Before cell phones, Spotify, iPods, CD's, and computers, there was the transistor radio – from the family car stereo, large tabletop version to the portable battery powered radio you could hold in your hand. Joey takes an in-depth yet lighthearted look at the songs that came out of our AM radios during the 60's, 70's and 80's. Unforgettable songs recorded by prolific hit makers, including several “one hit wonders” by obscure artists who would never be heard from again! Joey adds fun facts, musical insights, and personal stories about the music that gave us so many “AM Radio Memories.”
