Ken was one of the first DJ's to introduce listeners to Iron Butterfly, Country Joe and the Fish, Mothers of Invention, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Vanilla Fudge, and others. Reeth also wrote the lyrics to dozens of recorded songs, including the Rockabilly Hall of Fame classics, Rockin Billy, Endless Love and Pity Me, featured in the international award winning film, "The Exiles". Additionally he served on the Board of Directors of the Academy of Country Music and garnered several CLIO awards for writing and producing radio commercials. Matthew J. Pallamary's historical novel Land Without Evil received rave reviews, and was adapted into a multimedia aerial extravaganza, directed by Sarah Agent Red Johnston and performed by acrobatic troupe, Sky Candy to sold out audiences.
