In the mid '70s I worked in the listening room in the bowels
of the Library, Music majors would come in, reserve a booth and request music albums that I would put on the turn tables for their assignments. I also had control over the music that was played all over campus "elevator music". My boss would leave me a playlist every night before he departed for the evening. When I was sure he was off campus I would put on albums I liked rather than the boring selections he selected. Jimi Hendricks, The Byrds, The Animals, The Beatles etc. were played with regularity. After several weeks, my boss called me in and said he knew that I was deviating from his list. People had called him.
They called to thank him for changing the format from boring music to more popular selections they were enjoying. From then on until I graduated, he let me pick the albums played from 6-9 m-f. Good times!!
