Terry Knight

Terry Knight (April 9, 1943 – November 1, 2004), born Richard Terrance Knapp, was an American rock and roll music producer, promoter, singer, songwriter and radio personality, who enjoyed some success in radio, modest success as a singer, but phenomenal success as the original manager-producer for Grand Funk Railroad and the producer for Bloodrock.

Early career

Knight was born on April 9, 1943 in Lapeer, Michigan. After graduating from high school in 1961, he briefly attended Alma College before dropping out. Knight's music career began as a Detroit DJ in 1963 when he replaced Dave Shafer as "Jack the Bellboy" on WJBK, coming to Detroit from Flint, Michigan's Top 40 rock station WTAC. The following year, he moved across the river to CKLW in Windsor, Ontario. Arguably the first American DJ to air the Rolling Stones, he hosted a late night show from high-powered CKLW, bringing the British Invasion to the Northern states. He was awarded the honorary title of "The Sixth Stone" for his early support of the Stones. By the end of 1964, however, Knight had left CKLW and the radio business, intending to pursue his own career in music.

Another Day

by: Dragonette

I called and left a message
When you get this I'll be out of range
It's impossible to reach you
Gonna get you on another day
Somewhere outside of reception
Comes another disconnection
Before I got to tell you
Everything that I was trying to say
If you were here
I whisper something secret
In your ear
I'm telling my receiver
The things that I wish you were
Close enough to hear
Are you even out there
Are you even out there
I count the ringing on my fingers
It stopped and I got your machine
The tape is rolling my recording
Never turns out like I mean
There's a million conversations
But I've lost all of my patience
Are you near enough to hear me
Is my signal growing weak
While you're away
I think of all the things
I want to say
I speak in to the receiver
I leave my name and number
I say I'll be up late
But I'll call again on another day
Maybe I'll get you on another day
Oh pick baby I've got lots to say
But I'll get you on another
Call again on another day
Maybe I'll get you on another day
Oh pick up babe I got so much to say
But I'll get you on another day
Are you even out there
I'll get you on another day
Are you even out there
I'll get you on another day
Are you even out there
