Hello all I am new here and am looking for the name of a specific song. I have been reading alot of the past posts and could have missed it as this relates to the topic of songs fever played while on air. but I do not know the name of the song so I could have seen it and not knowed it. here is what I do know.
the episode is "young master Carlson"
Johnny is singing along with the record as it plays.
it replays the word "Radio" as the lyric
Thanks for any help, I am a huge wkrp fan and my favorite episode is "fish story" which I do not have but looking for.

I can check later, but I think it may be "Radio Radio" by Elvis Costello.

I'm not a big fan of that episode, actually it's one of my least favorite so I
don't know for sure off the top of my head.

I can confirm it now:

It's "Caravan" by Van Morrison.

....
And the caravan is on it’s way
I can hear the merry gypsies play
Mama mama look at emma rose
She’s a-playin with the radio
La, la, la, la...

And the caravan has all my friends
It will stay with me until the end
Gypsy robin, sweet emma rose
Tell me everything I need to know
La, la, la...

Turn up your radio and let me hear the song
Switch on your electric light
Then we can get down to what is really wrong
I long to hold you tight so I can feel you
Sweet lady of the night I shall reveal you

Turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher radio
Turn it up, turn it up, so you know, radio
La, la, la, la...

And the caravan is painted red and white
That means ev’rybody’s staying overnight
Barefoot gypsy player round the campfire sing and play
And a woman tells us of her ways
La, la, la, la...

Turn up your radio and let me hear the song
Switch on your electric light
Then we can get down to what is really wrong
I long to hold you tight so I can feel you
Sweet lady of the night I shall reveal you
Turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher, radio
Turn it up, that’s enough, so you know it’s got soul
Radio, radio turn it up, hum
La, la, la, la...
