Might as well re-post this item from last summer, the first time XM Satellite Radio's "Sonic Sound Salutes" paid homage to golden-oldie KLIF-AM (1190) on its channel devoted to the 1960s.

Show runs from 3 to 8 p.m. a week from Friday, and non-XM subscribers can sneak a listen gratis by clicking here. Also, who knew there were T-shirts and caps and mugs? --Robert Wilonsky
