KVLB banned The Beatles!
Notes:
On September 3, 1966, Billboard magazine had a brief article reporting, "The wave of stations switching to modern country music formats continues to sweep the nation. Latest stations to change include 1,000-watter KOGT in Orange, Tex., which beams around the clock; KALB in Alexandia, La., is programming six and a half hours hours daily; KEAN in Brownwood, Tex., is going 12 hours a day with country music; KVLB in Cleveland, Tex., is mixing country music with Hot 100 records according to new program director Jeff McClain." It's worth noting that three out of the four stations cited had banned The Beatles, so there's a possibility that the controversy pushed some stations away from pop music into country.
