590 MIGHTY MEMORY #150

THE SOUNDS OF WARM (PART 1)

LEN WOLOSON 

This video is a compilation of some of Len Woloson's work on WARM, The Mighty 590. Woloson was born in the Honeypot Section of Nanticoke. He began his career at WPTS in Pittston. Woloson was known as The All Nite Satellite on the early days of WARM's rock an roll format. 
When Susquehanna needed him elsewhere, he went to begin the growth of radio station WHLO in Ohio. He did a stint at WSBA in York before returning in early 1969 to WARM as "The Morning Mayor". 
His on the air hallmark was sound bites that he'd drop in utilizing records. Many who saw him work said he was a master at this. 
After WARM, Lenny went to KENO in Las Vegas where he lived until his death a few years back. 
Here is this video. The sound archives come from Joe Middleton, Duplication was done by Bobby Day of WARM and Arena fame and post production was done by some very good people. (Please keep in mind that this is a fifty year old tape of an on air presentation).
