"I love that solidly. Little lightweight thing going on. Those loving fools Romeo and Juliet. So 888-876-5593 88 88 Raleigh. Johnny dean. Welcome back to WGN. Hello, O'Reilly. One of those. Last night, some guys, hello, Riley. That's fine. That's fine. So what's going on tonight? I'm by myself. Beats being with someone. Say that again. It beats being with someone you don't want to be with. Yeah. I guess so. Yeah, I like being with me. I'll tell you what. Yeah. I like being with me. I like me. But anyhow, our cold, because I told John, I want to talk about John dolphin. Yes. Yes. But the only question that I had about, you know, because actually I want to talk about all about a year ago, maybe a little bit less, you told me to look up John dolphin, which I did. Yes. And then you also told me to look a guy bootsie call. I mean, duty Williams. Yes. Now, the question I had about John adolph, which I think I asked you once before. Did they ever find out whatever happens to that guy that shot him? No, and I have looked and looked and looked. You're talking about Percy ivy, Percy. Percy ivy killed him, and I don't know if that was like a nom de plume because I have looked for this guy in all the prison records I can find. I've looked for this guy in news accounts, and of course when he shot him, this was everywhere. You know, everybody reported it, but then nary another word. It's like Percy ivy just up and disappeared. So if there's anybody listening who knows what the heck happened when Percy ivy murdered John dolphin tell us yeah, I like to know. I would love to lead us and he went into the witness protection program. I don't think so, because I don't think there was any reason to protect anything having to do with John Dolph and truth be known. But, you know, I mentioned earlier that art lebeau, when he came to LA, he was by in time on care KD, Amy simple macpherson station, and I should mention that actually she was dead a few years by the time he did. But he left after a year, and that's when John dolphin realized, oh, wait a minute, I can buy time on this station. And he buys the time, and of course, puts huggy boy, dig hug in the window, and the rest was history for you. Do we have the boxing too? I don't think he was a boxer. I don't know. No, no, no, no. Who had the barking turned it into boxing to the arena or something? Oh, no, you're later with his widow and all that, yes, on central avenue, yes. Absolutely. But that wasn't adult. Yes, but that wasn't at the height of this by any means. All right, but here's my main reason about that of Raleigh about could you told me and I never did look up to G Williams and you had said that he met a tragic end. No, he actually didn't. He actually didn't. If I said that I misspoke, he died in 1991. And he how was it? About a hundred? No, he was 80, 'cause he's born in he's born 1911. And he had a lot of the early blue records. You know, the red fox stuff, things like that, you know, the bordering on obscene type records. Yeah. And he had a bunch of people like red fox, but he also was, he recorded Johnny creech who will, of course, later became Papa John creech and he recorded a course that yeah, right, he recorded the penguins, you know, but the big thing on due to, and it was due to not do tone, but due to were these party albums that it would be like red fox and other people and party singles too and EPs. I still have some of these laugh of the party were what some of them were called. And that was sort of a favorite. It couldn't be played on the radio, although it usually was double entendre rather than absolute smut. I used to my friend who used to have them. I had a friend and I guess he's still my friend, even though we haven't had any communication in years, but we still listen to him. He had him. But he's a guru now. What's that sitting in California where all the yoga's hot the yogi people live in Northern California somewhere? In Northern California. I'm talking about well, it could be almost anything like sausalito could be anywhere. No, no, this is a community of. Yogis. Right, right. We have one in Arizona, Sedona. But I'm sure there is a community in California as well. Yeah. And yeah, my friend. He's like the high priest. Okay. He's like a high priest of this community. And when we were teenagers and every day, he was the, he was the least likely guy that you think would go down that way. Oh, that's usually the way, isn't it? Yeah, he was like, yeah. Well, he was on the border of they told him the way we catch you with one seed. Going to gel. But any one of being a high priesthood of the heart to yogis out there in California. There you are.

That's your welfare dollars at work by the way And so in case you were wondering it's a very needed cause All right so Mark is in Connecticut Welcome back to WGN radio Hey I'm here And I'm standing I always like to stand when I use the phone or if I'm talking But I don't have my compression stockings on so are you on one leg No I'm just trying to sit on the side of the couch the arm You're kind of listing And I was thinking of Tina the ballerina Yeah And there was a Twilight Zone show I don't know if you've ever seen many of them I've seen a few There was an old one I liked the ones that Rod Serling introduces a cigarette Of course And they had a ballerina I think it was named Tina And a soldier in an Indian and I believe a marine and they were all they didn't actually know where they were but they were all talking with each other I know I know what this is It's like a sort play It's 5 characters in search of an exit Yeah and what happens like at the end of it Do you remember Basically yeah but go ahead Okay Well they're all trying to not know where they are They're all trying to escape for whatever reason And then they make a human ladder and right at the end of the show the one that gets to the top of the ladder that goes over the wall it lands in this little girl's bedroom and that was their toy box Right So I was thinking about that one No I do remember that because like I said it was like no exit the sort play But yeah there was the ballerina and the bagpiper There's a bagpiper in that as I recall And yeah And what I called up the very nice man answers the phone there He asked me what I wanted to talk about And I just want to mention that because you remind me of someone's sister you could be her sister if not you are Is there a very nice admiral and his wife that live in groton long point in his very nice wife passed away not too long ago and sounds she sounded just like you And I didn't know if you were sisters by any chance He's the last alive admiral now and brought in long point last year No I don't know I was an illegal adopting so I don't have any great history And her grandfather Maryland's grandfather the lady that passed away such a nice lady He knew she knew no he knew the grandfather knew Charles Lindbergh was his friend And anyway my basic call was talking about the show Alice Do you remember the situation Yes because it was based in Phoenix yes and also the guy who later the whatever who died in the helicopter crash thing And I was wondering if you could might be able to play the theme song at the beginning And I really thought of this a lot with my nice friend that passed away not too long ago With Alice the show the basic premise was she was going to start in a new place and it'd be like where we go afterwards You know what I mean Oh yeah no absolutely yes and that's where poly holiday really got some good exposure So yes And then Vera was very nave as Mel would say but anyway you remind me of a very nice person I knew and so maybe you're hurt I guess we find out on the other side Well a good deal Anoka Minnesota That's where they were from Okay Her and her husband went to grade school together and then they were 95 and 96 as of last year The theme song you're talking about the lyrics were Alan and Marilyn Bergman and that's the reason I know the song because that couple was the couple that translated all of the bossanova stuff in Tonya Carlo show beam stuff and all that The bergmanns gave it English lyrics So they also did the lyrics too There's a new girl in town Oh wow That'd be something A new start Yep Absolutely All right Thanks for calling Go deal So 888-876-5593 in the waning moments of just chokes me up winning moments of the show I didn't get a chance to talk much about these toys And like I was saying is I am assuming that there is nothing that right now is all the rage IE Barbie's when they started out or IE the cabbage patch dolls or in the 80s or what have you And so I was looking at the list of the hot holiday toys and the first thing I said was the flybar bumper cars And yes not just for kids at the fair kids as young as 18 months can steer around the house Yeah That's just great right The car comes equipped with a seatbelt a sturdy plastic shell and a soft rubber bumper to protect the walls of.

"In Florence that wrote about it in 58 And in fact their headline was composer kills publisher And Percy IV composer buzz buzz bud which is writing the top ten tunes over the nation may not get to enjoy his royalties from the catchy tune seems like he submitted this hit song along with three others to John dolphin And so it tells the story there So there's no doubt that ivy wrote it And there's no doubt of course that at all that dolphin published it but the writing credit just went to a few guys who were in the Hollywood flames including Bobby day who did write a lot of stuff Well one thing that I picked up where I recall from trying to read about it without John dolphin there would have been no warning Very good I don't know that that's true It's nice to me What do you mean I don't know that that's true because very Gordy was the consummate entrepreneur as well And by 58 Berry Gordy was already had records that he had through United Artists and things like that He was already on his way Oh I know he did I know he did But no I'm not saying that that wouldn't have happened But there was that resplendent period of time and look at duty Williams who did very well too with his labels But yeah so yeah it's very sad how things have changed But yeah if anybody knows the story of Percy ivy please let me know what happened to know that Yeah we all want to know I'm not sure who I can call about this but I plan to try and follow this up Well you know that's too bad You don't go to a nice place Well and I don't think you know some people said well he didn't have a knife he had a cigar So it's hard to say I guess nobody probably remembers and I'm sure Bruce Johnson and sandy were just more shocked than anything else You know they also made a musical play about Well they did and his grandson wrote a treatment in a book and all that And they make him out to be a much more sympathetic character Not to take anything away from John dolphin but clearly writing royalties were nebulous Well hey that's our business course Well that's right Absolutely right A 100% right He was a product of the time You betcha Yeah All right good to talk to you I want everybody to have a Hollywood Hollywood Christmas Jolly rolling There you go Me too And I'm being part of being part of your captive audience like some people say Oh no no no Our captive audience is captive because they're in jail Not only I was thinking you're talking about your regular Drugs And give me homework Well that's very sweet but no our captive audience or those behind bars Thanks for calling Appreciate it All right All right Bye bye And by the way if that's you if you may not have a choice of where you are but you do have a choice of what stations you listen to and I thank you for letting it be me 888-876-5593 88 88 rally We'll talk to Marlow We'll talk to Cleveland Dennis We'll talk to mark and you two coming up on WGN radio.

"Moment must go WGN radio I'm Ronald James and yes those are the Hollywood flames and a number of people you would recognize in that group is especially Bobby day whose actual name is Robert burden He's credited as a co writer to that even write it The guy who wrote it of course was a guy who killed John dolphin And so where's the John dolphin connection to the actions that came out on specialty Well John dolphin published it It was on cash music which was one of his publishing companies But we're talking to Johnny Dee in Youngstown So yeah see that was the issue Percy ivy went to John dolphin with three songs and John Dalton put him under his publishing company and he was supposed to give him like 250 bucks a song for the upfront royalties Well not only did he not give him anything but it turns out that Percy ivey's name wasn't even on it when it was released So he comes in and he kills him So that's a story there Yeah he did He would do his other people there Well that's what's so funny And they were junior high school kids That's so funny Sandy sandy Nelson who's the well-known drummer who had teen beat the big hit And then Bruce Johnston who had done a lot of things and most people say the former beach boy well he was briefly with The Beach Boys but he did a lot of other things and actually sandy and Johnston were there because they were pitching some Kim family songs But the third guy who nobody knows your classical music fan was Dave Schuster and he of course later went on to quite the distinguished classical music career But yeah those three kids were there It was quite the mess But now Okay And you'd have to you know we'd have to get Bruce Johnston to tell us what he thought Because that's what that's what Percy told the cops Because Johnson ran out of the room because shostak had accidentally been shot He was like grazed his leg but you know he was convinced he was shot which I don't blame him I probably would have thought that too And so Johnson flies out of the room and calls the cops And then the cops come and the first thing that Percy obviously is well he pulled a knife on me But see this is another thing I've never seen testimony from the three witnesses to say whether he did or not Well Wally as good as you are doing research if you can't find I don't know but I will say for all his interesting business practices that his heirs don't claim to think happen but regardless he was a very powerful player in south central LA and central avenue would have not been the same and huggy boy probably would have never been heard of and care KD would have never been playing records like earth angel and all that So John dolphin was tremendous Was that inside the record shot Well yeah well what it was they would buy the time And the reason it was called dolphins a Hollywood is because African Americans were not allowed to own any businesses in Hollywood And so John dolphins Black can't go to Hollywood bring Hollywood to them Well that's pretty much it And but central central avenue and that whole area was just really resplendent with black owned businesses of all types And dolphins of Hollywood was one of them and inside dolphin in the window of dolphins of Hollywood they would broadcast on carrot and they hired huggy boy Right And hugging was just the best you know here's a mess too but just the best And so yeah gee by the crows would never have been a record if it weren't for huggy boy And probably the penguins would have never been heard of because it was huggy who flipped it because hey senor was supposed to be the a side and he flipped it and of course there was angel was the reason which was exactly So but there's got to be some way to find out what happened to Percy ivy I don't know because a few things I know how to do I did The only thing I discovered was that he wasn't mentioned on that Well of course he was zooms and said no those were two members of the Hollywood flames like I say one of them was Bobby day But when you look at that record look at it who is it published by Cash music who owns cash music John dolphin Right Now here's another thing that I interesting thing Roy I mean I'm sure the audience is probably what the heck are we talking about but if you look it up on Wikipedia which is what I did Because I'm certainly not good I was thinking I was going to tell you look you're going to give out these homework assignments Give them to your more studious You academically and try and listeners like Friends or Casey Kimberly or Saroyan was a doctor I'm a procrastinator role I was done using purchase of programs today Yes and I just absolutely qualified as the print Because life progress I progress with me and I'm doing my home for two weeks I wanted to call a couple of nice but then I'm thinking well if I call she's going to give me a verbal laughing No no My homework No no No that's great So yeah the mystery continues now It's interesting because John dolphin was let me see that I was going to get into this This is where you mentioned cash records Yeah When we were talking when you gave me this assignment we were talking about Frank Zappa Yeah memories of elante And I said you mentioned red fox Album That's dude see And that's ducey Williams No No no not do what she calls Dude see Williams I didn't even look up to I want to know before we hang up I want you to tell me how he died You said he got murdered No no He did not get murdered John Dolph got murdered Duchy did not get murdered He was an interesting guy but he absolutely did not get murdered All right we're getting back to the call You mentioned red fox And remember what I said I asked if you ever seen a movie dolemite Yes Well I'm reading above John dolphin And I'm looking at it right now I kept this paid It says here Rudy ray Moore which is the name of that guided agent Murphy played AKA dolemite got his start in the music business recording for John dolphins cash lecker Right okay Yeah Do you know who really way more of us I know the name a dolomite obviously When I told you that movie told me that was all about that record store Well that's the record store That was dolphins of Hollywood and after John dolphin was murdered his wife Ruth took it over But I'm saying you should watch that movie dolemite is my name That's the thing It's about Rudy ray Moore Working with John dolphin and their record store And then it goes from there It's funny as heck I will absolutely check that out But by all means next to read about duchy Williams both of them the reason I mention them together were not only because they both had record stores and south central and labels But they both came from Alabama And it was interesting because when the murder occurred there was a paper in Florence that wrote about it in 58 And in fact their headline was composer kills publisher And Percy IV composer buzz buzz bud which is.

"WGN radio I'm probably James and that is docker the bay in a Karen wanted to hear and it's an interesting story too like I say it was actually the first record and maybe the only I don't know but the first record to become number one posthumously And he started writing that on a houseboat and salsa lido while they were on tour but didn't finish it got back to Memphis And Steve cropper from stacks the guitarist finished it with him And they had done a couple takes And there were a lot of questions And one of them was a two poppy wanted to be a little different than some of the stuff he'd done before But as I say two pops so what they did was they contracted the stacks gospel singers the Staples singers who were on stacks of the time to back vocals And by the way that was discussed but they never carried it out So that was one thought they'd do And when he took off for the final fatal tour considered it to be unfinished He was going to re-record the whole thing and he had other ideas for course and he died And then there were questions What happened Well for one thing Steve cropper had talked to Otis and he said I really like to get some waves and some seagulls like it was when I started to write it So cropper added that But the question is at the end of the whistle what's the deal And well cropper says no that's Otis and others say now this is whistle was a little bit too weak Sam Taylor who was a guitarist and band leader for Otis during the 60s overdubbed it And others say well they were going to have other lyrics Well to my knowledge there were no other lyrics but as reading had requested when he heard it in his head You got the seagulls We got the whistles And it's a wonderful song And in a way I have no idea what he planned to do to it but to me he couldn't really improve on it that kind of understated style he had is what made that record at least to me But what do I know 8 8 8 7 6 5 5 9 three Johnny D isn't Youngstown What's happening to night in Ohio Yes hello Wally I wanted to turn in my homework assignment that you gave me about two weeks ago Yes and like I said I gave you an addition to it today when you wrote and I must admit that I don't know the answer to this I thought the answer was going to be easy to find but after I gave you the assignment I decided I'd look around online and I can not find out what happened to Percy ivy after the shooting Well you know what I was going to call earlier but I haven't checked my email and seen your reply with that question So I had to do a little research I can't find this beard man Yeah that's what I mean It's like come on you got all these billboard and The Hollywood Reporter variety They're all right and about it The LA times about the shooting And they all talk about you know he's in prison and he's been arrested But then you never hear about a trial You don't hear about the results You don't hear what happened to this guy It's like he fell off the radar How is that possible I don't know I'm saying like you know unless you could go to one of their mom Sites to tell you about your arrests and that you know We got his arrest We know exactly when his arrest was we know what he was charged with but I can't find a trial I can't find a conviction I can't find a sentencing and I can't find whatever would have happened after that I mean this guy wrote hit records not that he ever got the royalties The Hollywood flames Yeah And John dolphin He's not even mentioned That's right That was the problem That was the problem That's what led to him coming in and shooting Hang on him and don't go away All right so yeah it's sort of tail 888-876-5593 We'll pick it up right there on WGN radio.

"Yes that's Franklin with a Y so 888-876-5593 And that will by the way there's a bob and ray character that was done in parodying Franklin McCormick I think it was Charles the poet And as I was listening to the opening of I love you not only for who you are In Charles the poet character he can't get through a poem without laughing So I hate to say it I was in hysterics before the second line was over So Gary and Austin welcome back to WGN radio Oh bob and ray I love them Absolutely They are funny And but yes good to hear that history of Franklin McCormick's eye of I didn't listen to G in much in the years I mean I was listening to LS Rock and roll But I was aware of them And I'm here certain things on there but it's good to hear that history about him Oh yeah But you were talking earlier about the public restrooms going away And I remember in the early 2000s when I would take a Greyhound from Texas at California to see France and we would usually leave LA like midnight or one in the morning and between there and Salinas you could not stop at convenience stores and stuff But you couldn't use the restroom So that was starting even then This is a problem And the result is obvious You see the defecation on the streets in San Francisco There's pictures of it everywhere Well we now have clearly identified the problem to everybody's consternation We got to do something about this Yes I don't like the disappearance of payphones either just because if you're in a rough situation where your cell phone's dead you're out a lot You are absolutely I agree And of course you know I think the impetus to the payphones was sort of put a crimp in the drug dealers armor But yeah that's why they took them out of them Do you mean in store So they say But yeah it's a problem Of course I laugh at cell phones that people won't leave their home without them and since my hobby when I was a kid was driving the interstate system nobody had cell phones Yeah We never worried about it You know it's like now today wow how could you leave home without a cell phone Now I'd drive across the country without one repeat I'd rather ask without one What are you talking about In the early in the 80s 70s 80s 90s I didn't have a cell and it goes to 88 a city B and I didn't The idea you didn't even think about it Now it's like no I have to be safe with my boy Why are you talking about Yeah it makes absolutely no sense to me I want to ask you about huggy boy because I never heard the checks of him and I was just curious about him Okay Dick hug was probably the worst disc jockey ever as far as technically and vocal and all that But he had the greatest set of ears He was everything art label wanted to be And that's not to give art any short shrift because art certainly had his heart in the right place and he was a businessman start to finish at a good one So I'm indebted to art but everything that art was about business huggy boy was not I think I've told the story many times on the air of huggy boy actually went to jail And what had happened was he was doing all these concerts and he was never ever paying any taxes And when he got in front of the judge he said serious is a heart attack without missing a beat is that well your honor I didn't know I was supposed to give the government a cut And that was so quintessential hugging but he was the real deal and John dolphin dolphins of Hollywood And you know like I say it was not in Hollywood The reason that you named it John dolphins of Hollywood was it was illegal for an African American to own a business in Hollywood So he had dolphins of Hollywood right on central avenue and huggy boy did the show from the window And he not only broke earth angel but so many other records And then when the border blasters were a big deal with ten 90 he was always on that And his last job on the radio this is so funny but so typical K earth hired him Mike Phillips at chairs Now the thing about huggy boy like I say he was a terrible dys junkie But he knew this music start to finish So what did K are through They hire huggy boy but they won't let him play what he wants to play Why Father So you can probably find that But I think they somehow thought that people were listening to huggy because he was huggy They were listening to huggy the same way you would listen to Alan freed for what he played So yeah Gotta let him play it And they wouldn't Yeah That's too bad that was his last job Too bad that he didn't let him play what he wanted Well you're so right He was probably born in the latter 20 so he wanted a kid He was he was from canton Ohio And he was on care Katie In fact he was the only Caucasian jock on there and he would be in the front window of dolphins as Hollywood right on central avenue central and Vernon just as white as can be And that's a tribute to hang on I'll tell you more I love talking about how you should All right so we'll pick it up right there on WGN radio.

They stayed why is fuck. As nineteen fifties gave way to the early sixties more neighborhoods were desegregated and several of the leading black churches. Were beginning to wield political influence and local civic affairs by the early sixties side states African americans had significantly transformed their status in los angeles. their protests were widespread. Their demands were well known and their political influence. Still uneven was undeniable. Most important african americans participated in daily urban life in ways that would have been impossible to decades earlier. This another historian saying this However one area where l. as black community did not make progress in the fifties and sixties was with their relationship with local law enforcement. The reputation of lapd became especially notorious for being racist under the long reign of chief. William parker nineteen fifty to hundred sixty six parker infamous for not only promoting racial profiling and aggressive policing policies but also for harassing black businesses and black patrons along central avenue so frequently that his policing methods led to not only breaking up central avenue vibrancy but also to the nineteen sixty five watts. Riots was puritanical crusader against what he called race mixing. He's real peace yet and not a big fan of jazz either. Apparently a lot of nightclubs juke joints rated and shuddered under his reign. Here's an example. The kind of shitty pulled nineteen fifty four. John dolphin owner of los angeles premiere.

"So I am interested. My interest is peaked. You mean like the backup of Volvo? Volkswagen. Was that a movie or is it like, yeah, we made out in an uncomfortable place and they're like back up a Volkswagen? He's getting the football and uncomfortable places. All right, so I got John. Dolphins. Quick chatter about the dolphins. What do you think about what the Patriots will see on Sunday four 25 kick? Yeah, I think the most useless thing is over analysis and week one because we have no idea what we're going to see. You can't show anything out the preseason. Don't give me the film. Don't do any of that stuff. I mean, look, Austin Jackson, they're left tackles and COVID-19, shaheen's and COVID-19, one of their tight ends. They're starting a rookie at left guard. I think I can burgers pretty good. Second rounder. But man, that's against this front. That's a tall tat with tua, who's not exactly mister, you know, mister stoic, you know, but in the pocket and you're gonna sit back there and confident in his reads and his blocking. So look, they have a ton of talent. I think this is gonna be a team that's gonna be better in the second half of the season. I think that they have a ridiculous secondary that I think is gonna be pretty good. I mean, Jason McCourty is playing free safety though. So look for them to target him on a few things. But rose pretty good Justin Coleman is back former patriot. I loved him here. I loved him in Detroit, Byron Jones, saving Howard. But to me, I think one of the big storylines in this game, Nick is the dolphins because Brian Flores can't make a decision on who he wants to be offensive coordinator for more than 6 seconds. Is now going with, yeah, this works all the time. The double offensive coordinator with George God, my guy, George godsey, who I spent a lot of time with when I did the Houston Texans game plan story was Bill O'Brien's offense corner. Love godsey. He's very smart. I could see him as a future OC here. And Eric, stews ville, who is mostly I think a run game. He was an interim coach with the Broncos. I think maybe after McDaniels got fired. But anyways, yeah, the double coordinator works wonders like, you know, after firing people left and right. Now he's going with the double guys. That's going to be an issue in Josh Boyer against Mick Josh McDaniels. But, you know, Boyer is the dolphins defense corner, former secondary coach here with the Patriots. That is an intellectual mismatch if I've ever seen one, and now that Josh McDaniels actually has tools, I expect him to win the day that way. So I like the Patriots pretty good in this game. The good co OC, the double mint gum approach to their offensive coordinator. I pretty much everything you just said..
