Since the ‘40s, Art Laboe has been entertaining radio listeners in California. His impactful content has dominated the airwaves and become a part of history. Laboe coined the term “Oldies But Goodies” when he released a compilation album of various renowned artists. He was also the first radio personality to play rock and roll on air on the west coast.
Laboe emerged on the radio scene in 1943, during World War II. He debuted in San Francisco at the A.M. Radio station, KSAN. He pioneered a concept that allowed listeners to request and dedicate music to loved ones and friends. During his time with KSAN, he took phone calls on air and played jazz and big band music during the evenings.
Laboe took a break from work in radio to serve the U.S. Army as a Morse Code transmitter. After that stint, he went back to radio and worked in KCMJ, located in Palm Springs, California. He later moved to Los Angeles and worked with KPOP, where he took his show on the road, often attracting a massive audience composed of young adult and teenage listeners. Aside from playing popular songs on air, Laboe often promotes up-and-coming artists. He formed Original Sound Records in 1959 to promote new bands and artists, including Sandy Nelson and Preston Epps.
Today, Laboe spearheads two hit radio shows, The Art Laboe Connection and the Laboe Sunday Special. The shows are broadcasted on 14 different radio stations in Los Angeles, San Diego, Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Inland Empire.
