Description

Hello. I recently purchased many albums that were owned by a DJ named Deirdre O'Donoghue. Confirming that I had the correct DJ name, I was excited when I found a letter among the albums that I bought that she received while working at KMET in CA back in 1985(another album I have listed having a personal letter to her from the artist Bobbo Bill)! KMET was a very popular album-oriented rock station from 1968 through 1987 From LARadio. com "O'DONOGHUE, Deirdre: KPPC, 1970-71; KKGO, 1979; KCRW, 1980-86; KMET, 1983-87; KNX/fm, 1987-88; KLSX, 1988-99. Deirdre, longtime host of "Breakfast With The Beatles" on KLSX and "Snap" on KCRW, was found dead in her apartment on January 20, 2001. A friend claims that she died of Multiple Sclerosis.  Born in 1948, Deirdre started her radio career in 1974 at WBCN-Boston, a station that she maintained was "the best radio station in the world." She worked at "underground KPPC" as part of the "community switchboard" in the early 1970s. Beginning in 1983, Deirdre was heard on two FM stations - non-commercial KCRW and KMET. She was with KMET until 1987 when the station changed format and call letters. Her show "Snap" (acronym of "Saturday Night Avant Pop") on KCRW aired three nights a week with anything considered on the cutting edge of contemporary Pop music. She started at KKGO in 1979 and went on to work for KCRW, KMET, KNX/fm and KLSX. Deirdre was 52." She kept her albums, many of them DJ promotional copies, in EXCELLENT condition. You will see this note along with the letter I found addressed to her with each album from what I believe to be from her collection. Thank you.**The letter is not included in the auction. It is for show only as I only have the one.
Up for sale is a great copy of the soundtrack  "Back to the Future" on vinyl LP from 1985. On MCA MCA-6144. It is a RARE DJ PROMO COPY, I believe from the DJ, Deirdre O'Donoghue since I got it from the same lot as all the other records (some having her name on the records).   
The LP is in EX condition or better. Has very slight scuff marks and only a couple pops but other than that, it is an EXCELLENT Copy! The cover is in VG+ condition. Has slight wear on the edges and a little creasing. The back upper right side is stamped in gold "For Promotion Only, Ownership Reserved by MCA Records, Inc, Sale is Unlawful".  Comes in a sleeve.

Track list:

  • The power of love
  • Time bomb town
  • Back to the future
