    Was this a response to the Urban Cowboy phase we saw during that time?

      Very much so. The SoCal Radio History link on the post delves into it a little.

    Yes it was. It lasted almost 2 and a half years. It switched back to Top 40/Oldies on April 1st, 1983.

      Actually, yeah, some people thought it was a gag. But the announcement of the switch back said it was no joke.
