Pioneering DJ Art Laboe's oldies show will continue after his death

• Dart Entertainment will also use recordings of Laboe's oral histories of songs and occasional on-air dedications, Morones said.
• Laboe's co-host, Old School Becky Loo, will read dedications over the air and host the show. She had been co-hosting with Laboe in recent months.
• "We will keep going as long as we have listeners," Morones said.

Laboe died on Oct. 7 after developing pneumonia. He was 97.

• Laboe had been on the air for nearly eight decades and was one of California's first DJs to play R&B and rock 'n' roll.
• Laboe is credited with helping end segregation in Southern California by organizing live DJ shows at drive-in eateries that attracted white, Black and Latino listeners who danced to rock 'n' roll.
• He maintained an avid following among Mexican Americans in California and served as a communication vehicle for families with loved ones in prison.

What's next: "The Art Laboe Connection Show" will air on stations like 93.5 KDAY Los Angeles and KOKO Jammin' 94.3 Fresno on Sunday nights from 6 pm to midnight PT.

• Listeners can also stream his show online and through various apps.
• Morones said the production company is preparing to sell new Laboe merchandise to keep his memory alive.
