WKXM (1300 AM) was an American radio station licensed to serve the community of Winfield, Alabama. The station, established in 1965, was last owned by Ad-Media Management Corp. The station fell permanently silent on August 2, 2012.
Before it fell silent, the station broadcast a sports/talk radio format as a full-time affiliate of ESPN Radio.
This station signed on the air in 1965 as WEZQ broadcasting with 1,000 watts of power on 1300 kHz under the ownership of John D. Self. WEZQ aired a country & western music format from its 1965 sign-on into the 1980s.
In June 1989, John Self made a deal to sell this station to James Boyd Pate. The deal was approved by the FCC on August 3, 1989, and the transaction was consummated on November 3, 1989. In January 1990, James Boyd Pate applied to transfer the license for this station to Ad-Media Management Corporation, a company he controlled. The transfer was approved by the FCC on February 12, 1990. The new owner had the FCC change the station's assigned call letters to WXDX on March 30, 1990, as a complement to its under-construction FM sister station, then known as WXZX, but these would prove short lived as the station switched again to the current WKXM call letters on July 1, 1990. (Three months later, the FM sister station would switch its callsign to match as WKXM-FM.)
There's no need for the servant
There's no scene, no queen
This must be less then meant
The most pityful ever seen
I guess he misses the sunshine
For Venus he wrote a line:
"I don't mind waiting a lifetime
Even if it's gambling with time
I could dare the waiting elsewhere
Love could be the future we share"
He used to waste opportunities
Get some suicidal tendencies
All his life he's been seeking
For his passing love affair, he sang:
"I don't mind waiting a lifetime
Even if it's gambling with time
I could dare the waiting elsewhere
Love could be the future we share"
Now he's sliding to the skies
White, unlimited in his eyes
No one heard of the one man band
A red carpet to the lucky land
I don't mind waiting a lifetime
Even if it's gambling with time
I could dare the waiting elsewhere
Love could be the future we share
I'll find another space
