Original 7-inch reel-to-reel tape containing a 1984 recording of Billy Idol on KQAK 98.9 FM, ‘The Quake,’ a pioneering San Francisco radio station that operated from August 1982 to June 1985. The reel, which bears an affixed label annotated “Billy Master 15 iPS,” includes its original storage box marked on the spine, “Billy Idol breaks KQAK 1984.” The box’s cover, which bears unrelated annotations, features an affixed label, “Billy. Right!” In fine condition.
From the archives of Norman Davis, the co-host of the pioneering punk radio show The Outcastes on KSAN-FM in San Francisco, America's first regularly scheduled punk rock radio show. For nearly two years, The Outcastes went live every Friday night from 2 to 4 a.m. (Saturday morning) and featured some of punk’s biggest early stars, including Devo, The Cramps, Roky Erickson, The Nuns, The Dead Boys, Iggy Pop, and the Sex Pistols. He interviewed Paul Cook and Steve Jones on January 13, 1978, a day before the band’s final concert at the Winterland. The interview was notorious for its airing of unedited expletives used by Cook and Jones, profanity that could have potentially cost the radio station its license.
