Thought the list may wish to know this sad news, relating to cd2 on
Bellavista Terrace - a favourite recording for most of us featured
Deirdre's
"live on Snap radio" recording.

>(January 23, 2001) Deirdre O'Donoghue, longtime host of "Breakfast With
The
>Beatles" on KLSX and "Snap" on KCRW, was found dead in her apartment
>yesterday morning. It is thought that she died Friday or Saturday.
>Details on her death are sketchy. 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." 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.
Few people supported "pop" music in Los Angeles the way Dierdre did. She
will be missed.
