    About this ebook

    Although the surface thread is autobiographical, "Local DJ" is much more an interwoven narrative on Rock "n" Roll culture from the late 50s through the present times.
    Perspective is subjectively recounted by Peter C., who was both involved with and influential upon the music over an extended period. The presentation is structurally arranged as a mosaic of interrelated stories with substantial personal overview or, as more commonly referenced, "attitude."
    From the earliest days of Elvis through through the present day, Local DJ travels through time and space with instinctive grace. Sacramental with sin. A lifeweb spin.

    Peter Cavanaugh

    At the age of sixteen in 1957, Peter C. Cavanaugh enjoyed a fifty-eight percent total audience share on his hometown station, WNDR in Syracuse, New York. Decades later, he’s written a book about his adventures ever since, promoting and producing literally hundreds of early concerts with the likes of Chuck Berry, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Bob Seger, Ted Nugent, Alice Cooper, Kiss and so on, as well as running a seven station radio group which included the top-rated Rock ‘n’ Roll stations in America. Peter lives in Oakhurst, California, with his wife, Eileen.

      Fascinating to read about the making of “Free” by Deniece Williams in the latest issue of Uncut, one of the greatest truly psychedelic songs of all time. I have a beautifully pressed 12” promo single from 1976 that shows how insanely spacious and tri

      2001’S PURE ROCK Fury was a make-or-break moment for Clutch. And – at least so far as the music industry was concerned – they blew it. Unable to break the Top 100 on the US music charts, the record was regarded as another underperformer in an age whe
