Howdy fellow fatheads! We have heard your requests to revive this beloved high cholesterol classic with the exact printing front and back slogan and the specs of the original sold in 1976! This is the original KFAT baseball jersey T-Shirt by the original station artist from artwork and hand-cut color separations from 1976. The very same  100% Cotton with red three quarter sleeves worn by the station disc jocks, staff, all night lovelorn crew and softball cowhands. No longer must you pay a king's ransom for a rare original vintage KFAT Jersey on Ebay...can you believe what they are asking for these? Unbelievable! But we are the one and only source for original KFAT shirts, stickers, pins and other archival relics from our station archives. Don't accept any bootleg knock-off fakes of dubious printing and inferior fabric, fake inkjet stickers printed overseas by non-fat grifters that pop up online.
This IS the official KFAT station jersey and the original shirt and its KFAT stickers that have been championed by musicians and music fans alike since the very first radio station shirts were peddled locally through the station advertisers in Santa Cruz, San Jose, Morgan Hill, Aptos, Capitola, Watsonville and Gilroy from the mythical tiny upstairs pirate, hippie, cowpoke and cowgirl FM radio communal enclave. From surfers, long haul truck drivers, outlaw bikers, hippies, rednecks, deadheads to farmers, slop slingers, artists and growers, the legend and the KFAT sound with irreverent humor spread. This iconic KFAT Baseball Jersey shirt (Because We Need The Bucks) has become a recognizable extension of KFAT’s living music legacy and culture ensemble. It was/is true only to the musicians, itself and you, its loyal ‘fatheads’ audience!
For those of you who are new to the Fat-Land...KFAT was a legendary eclectic free-form FM radio station based in Gilroy California, garlic capital of the world. It featured country music, country-western, western swing, with a high cholesterol mix of blues, rock, bluegrass, Hawaiian, folk, novelty 78s, zydeco, Cajun, Dixieland, soul, instrumental acoustic, raunchy comedy, 30’s hot jazz, yodeling brakemen, shit-kicker, redneck, truck drivin’, juke joint jukebox, Texas swing, roadhouse, roots, reggae, early ska, calypso, psychedelic, old timey, duck calls, hootenanny, electric blues, rockabilly, Motown, surf instrumental, tiki lounge, hillbilly front porch, and musical saw to name but a few. The off-the-air antics of the diverse KFAT deejays often eclipsed their fabled colorful air shift personas. The life and times of KFAT radio, its crew and lively audience can best be read about in Gilbert Klein's book, “Fat Chance”. The boisterous station (1975 to 1983) is recognized as the birthplace of ‘Americana Music” and its iconic station logo is seen throughout America and beyond to this day. The active memory of the station and those associated with it is kept alive and well through KPIG radio, Freedom California, online streaming of original recorded broadcasts and the growing audience of old and new ‘fatheads’ all over the world.
