RUNAWAY RADIO

NR
83 min.

Hosted by the Houston Film Critics Society.

A legendary Houston, Texas rock radio station broke new records, defined the culture, attracted top music artists all while whipping listeners into a frenzy. Like an out-of-control locomotive, 101 KLOL seemed unstoppable until the government stepped in. What happened to straight ahead rock radio? Lyle Lovett, ZZ Top’s Dusty Hill, Melissa Etheridge, Sammy Hagar, King's X's Dug Pinnick and legendary drummer Carmine Appice, along with top DJs from across the US, reflect on how radio changed their lives, and why it’s now hard to find rock on the FM dial.
