LA Radio: Paul McCartney Thanks KCSN For Airplay

As legendary as Paul McCartney is, he's not above picking up the phone and personally thanking a radio programmer for playing songs from his latest album, "New."

According Billboard, when KCSN 99.5 FM Los Angeles program director Sky Daniels arrived at the adult alternative station March 6, he received a message that none other than McCartney wanted to speak with him.

Upon calling Jill Weindorf, senior VP of promotion for McCartney's label, Hear Music/Concord Music Group, he learned that McCartney was in Los Angeles shooting a video for "New" track "Early Days" the day before and spent the evening with "friends at dinner," according to Weindorf. Those friends regaled McCartney with stories about KCSN, licensed to California State University at Northridge, and how it has played cuts from "New," including the title track and second single "Queenie Eye."

Impressed by the station's support, McCartney then called the label and asked how he could contact KCSN to say thanks. From there, McCartney and Daniels chatted for more than an hour.
