Hal Charles discovered radio the way some people discover religion — at night, alone, with the volume low enough that no one else could hear. From a converted radiator shop in Memphis in 1951 to a Cleveland broadcast tower in 2004, The Last DJ follows one man's fifty-year refusal to let the music become just product.
He plays what he believes in. Soul, rock, the blues. Tom Petty at midnight. Clarence Clemons on a Tuesday. He talks to the city through its worst nights and its best ones, marries and loses and loves again, watches the industry he gave his life to swallow itself whole. And when the corporate men finally come for his station, Hal Charles does what he has always done: he plays the record, and he doesn't back down.
Inspired by Tom Petty's 2002 album of the same name. For anyone who ever drove home in the dark with the radio on and felt less alone.
