KBKB-FM, a radio station (101.7 FM) licensed to Fort Madison, Iowa, United States
Under the soft rock format, KBKB promoted itself as a hip modern rocking "River Town" station that still had its roots firmly planted in the local Southeast Iowa river valley heritage, and often used a bumper jingle that was based on the blues song "Ol' Man River" with the line: That Ol' man river, he keeps on rolling, just keeps on rolling with K-B-K-B.

When KBKB made its debut with its soft rock format, ABBA's "Fernando" and Gordon Lightfoot's "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" were current hits that received a lot of airplay on the new radio station.
