After Shadoe Stevens changed Top 40 KRLA into Progressive AOR, the Midnight to 6am shift was a "dumping ground" for those Top 40 holdovers that Shadoe felt did NOT fit the new format.First, Tom Murphy was moved into the Midnight to 6am shift causing him to go back to Seattle, and after Murphy left, JAY STEVENS, who had been jocking Noon-3pm was moved into the Midnight to 6am slot uopn the acquistion of B. Mitchel Reed in late 1971 who moved into the Noon-3pm shift.
Jay handled the Midnight to 6am shift from late 1971 until early 1972, when he TOO would bail out of KRLA jumping over to chicken-rock KIIS 1150 AM.
GREG SHANNON, an AOR-sounding air talent replaced Jay Midnight to 6am in the Spring of 1972.
