50 minutes of music is a good way to make a living

I was just kidding guys. That's why there's a smiley. Smiley Bob, you know I'm right where I want to be. By the way, we still have to have a lunch date sometime. For the record, I'm still ticked I never got to spin vinyl!

Bob, Is there any radio group in town worthy of your talent?  You seem to bash everyone.

I'm sure people like Chuck, Kevin and Matt all do very well in their respective positions.  I bet at least two of them are paid very well for their services.  Radio is a business.  That is the second half of the word: SHOW-BUSINESS.   You are a talented guy.  NO QUESTION.

I wouldn't make everyone in broadcasting mad at you for posting negative comments about every radio group and manager in town.   Never good to burn bridges.

I hear Dickeroo (Dick Lofton) is looking to get back into radio.  He speaks highly of KRMG and KRVT.

He could be of value to several stations in the market.  He is a good man.

Uh, no thanks, way to Milk-Toast.  On the other hand he could join the stupidity on 1270, have you listened lately.

Kevan and Chuck are two of Tulsa's best jocks.  Absolute pros.  If you want to hear some of the personality radio Bob is talking about, check out a website called 79waky.com. It is a tribute site to two of Louisville's Top 40 stations from the 60's.  There are two stations, WAKY and WKLO, the KAKC/KELi of Louisville.  There are many early airchecks and the kind of radio that is missing today.  Another top shelf jock was the late Rick Alan West... God bless him.

That's debatable.  You haven't listened much have ya Radio 55.  Both are 80's liner-card mechanical, absolutely zero personality, if that's what you're lookin' for.  Smell the roses will ya.  Now Rick Alan West was an exception.  A true talent.

Bob O'Shea is another one.  A true personality and talent.  Should be in Chicago, LA, NY.  What a waste for a guy like this not to be on the air.  Once again a testiment to pedestrian radio here in Tulsa.

Milk-toast? Man, that's a little harsh.  You are right about Bob O'Shea.  One of those guys you could never tell what he was going to say.  I always thought Dick was pretty good too.  Kevan and Chuck, despite liner cards and voice-tracking, I thought they did a great job.  Just an opinion.  It ain't science, is it?

Kevan sounds mighty good, even reading liner cards...  he's never sounded "pre-fab" to me.  Chuck is held pretty far down by all the liners on Mix, but is still easy on the ears and if he's let loose, he's fantastic (think his K-107 days).  Two thumbs up for Bob O'Shea (totally New York / L.A. talent) and Dick Lofton; both were wonderful to listen to, & I hope they're back within earshot soon.

O.K., Da Judge, I'll bite: what stupidity are you hearing lately on 1270, and is it good stupidity or bad stupidity?   Grin  I noticed they dumped Music Of Your Life and are running 60s, 70s, & even some 80s now when they're not local; is that what you mean?
