| | Californian songwriter Jim Wagner is suing Petty and KLOS DJ Jim Ladd for $4.5 million. | | | Claiming that Jim Ladd ever gave me another piece of music or discussed the plaintiff or his song with me in any way whatsoever is a total falsehood. | | | The allegation that Tom Petty and Jim Ladd somehow conspired to rob the plaintiff of a business opportunity is both ludicrous and insulting." Petty adds "To this date, I have never heard the recording the lawsuit claims influenced my song. |

| | Ladd and Petty have crossed paths in recent years, and "The Last DJ" liner notes suggest Ladd may have been a partial model for the song. | | | Ladd says he longs for the days when "beautiful mistakes" happened and nontraditional artists such as Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and the Grateful Dead were championed by DJs. | | | Ladd says the DJs of the late 1960s saw themselves as part of a cultural revolution. |

| | Interview with Jim Ladd |
| | Jim Ladd still can be heard over the "radio waves" in Los Angeles California, on radio station KLSX at 97.1 on the FM dial, where he broadcasts Monday through Friday from 6PM to 12 Midnight (Pacific Standard Time). | | | Jim Ladd's Radio Waves vividly recreates the unforgettable era of American counterculture, allowing you to feel, through radio's rich language Ñthe sweet twang, the late -night call-ins, the ever-so-glib absurditiesÑ as if you're listening to the radio once again. | | | Teeming with controversy, filled with never-told-before stories about performers and producers of the '60s and '70s music world, and awash with the familiar song lyrics of a generation, Radio Waves is also the story of an idealistic man who put his soul on the line in pursuit of an elusive dream. |
