Editor: • W K C W Radio in Warrenton, Virginia (better known at Big “K”) has been privileged to be a part of the country music industry by broadcasting country music industry by sic since 1960. During this period of time, we have met many of the present and past country music artists and consider quite a number of them as personal friends.
In the past 12 to 18 months, it seems that more and more artists feel it is necessary to use DAMN and HELL in order to have a hit. If they don’t use the aforementioned words, they are resorting to suggestive sex, drugs, etc., in their recordings. We do not feel this is necessary in order to have a number 1 hit record.
We at Big “K” are not condeming these recordings. We can advise against playing these records; we cannot slop it throughout the country, but, we can stop subjecting our listeners to records and songs which are offensive to them and everyone’s families.
In closing, we woqld like to say that Big “K” at one time, was the only country music station in Northern Virginia. Now there are many. As long as we, the present management, have anything to do with Big “K,"
