Folks, I found this little post on Airchexx, and have left a message there for Hal Moore, a.k.a. "John Edward Diamond" to contact me:
"Hi, guys…does anyone remember me? My name is Hal Moore but on the air I was John Edward Diamond..and I came to KAAY when Clyde Clifford left Beaker Street..I was hired by then Program Director Wayne Moss…and did the show for a year and a half…just wondering ..good luck..Hal"
I'll be calling Wayne Moss in the near future to ask about Hal...in the meantime, if any of you know Hal, or his involvement with KAAY and Beaker Street, please direct him my way, will you?
Thank you!

I've been searching everywhere and finally found someone else who mentions John Diamond. Listened to him many nights out late cruising with buddies till morning. Never forget it. Never be another John Diamond.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone, anywhere, have any tapes of John Diamond. I grew up listening to Clyde and after him John. Lots of Clyde's episodes on the net, but have yet to find anything of John. He was a great and nobody even mentions him. It's like he fell off the face of the earth and this awesome broadcaster will be totally forgotten. Anybody have any info and willing to help, please contact me at: billworthy2016@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteKAAY Little Rock Beaker Street what a late night show. Back in 73 a friend of mine and I drove around late at night in his 65 Vette to listen to Kaaay AAA AAA YYYY with I would like to say John Diamond on Beaker Street. I didn’t listen to the local radio stations here in North Dakota as they didn’t play the music I wanted to hear. I always wondered why we could only hear KAAY at night. I have been a Ham Radio operator for 27 years and now I do know why we had to drive around so late at night just to hear the best AM station. At least part of it HI HI (Ham Radio laughing) Oh those were the days…..good music, fast cars and thinking I new it all
