Coyote McCloud

Just found some old airchexx. He was fantastic. I think as good as Jackson Armstrong, Dick Biondi, B. Mitchell Reid, or any of the legendaries. How come he never got the credit?
 
Was this an old WQXI aircheck?

This is the Coyote McCloud I had in mind. Exceptionally talented, a great guy, fun to be around, lived to the hilt. Rememered him from my record promoting days. He passed a year ago.

That he didn't get as much credit as the others is probably a function of the stations or the markets. Coyote worked at some great stations--WQXI, WMAK, WAKY, WNOE--but they were neither blasters that carried across many states at night or in the largest markets.

Jackson Armstrong worked at a couple of 50,000 watters, WKYC and WKBW, where he really became known. Biondi did nights on 2 50,000-watt Chicago stations, WLS and WCFL (as well as WJMK-FM), and in the #2 market, Los Angeles, at KRLA.

B. Mitchell Reid worked at 5,000-watt stations, but they were in markets 1 and 2, WMCA and KFWB.
