Thanks, I appreciate this. I suspected this might be the case. 

Biondi was an enthusiastic Beatles fan when he made his way west a year 
later at Pasadena's KRLA-AM. I can recall his evening show where, as soon 
as the Polydor/MGM material became available, Biondi played it. This 
accounts for my continuing appreciation for "Cry For a Shadow"....
