I loved KING the Mighty 1090 in the 60's. Great personalities, NBC news, Irving Clark talk weeknights and a music range you will never get on radio any longer. Bosa nova, some jazz, middle of the road vocals and classy instrumental covers.
Frosty Fowler and his quips about songs like, "send me the pillow that you drool on."
Mark Wayne's Aunt from Uncle ...
Halloween nights with Irving Clark and Dr. Poldergiest! "Mutual 2-5080, Clark on KING!"
So much more. Fun, creative radio, at least to a junior high school aged kid.
Now I am a memory and it may be false, but did Bill Cosby do some fill in on occasion?
Some good links to Facebook pages about the history of KGHO: https://www.facebook.com/groups/641557002528920/search/?q=kgho https://www.facebook.com/groups/379612255478886/ Ron Germeaux…

Frosty had been involved in a car accident and was in recovery for three weeks (1963). Cosby filled-in for Frosty at KING AM during that time. https://qzvx.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Frosty-and-Cosby.jpg
