Ron Chapman's Farewell

Ron's been saying that he will sign off at 9. And then Jody will do the 9 o'clock hour by himself.

Ron also says his final song is one we hear on KLUV all the time.

I hated that orleans song. How about frank sinatra's "It was avery good year"
or
" Harry Chapin's "W.O.L.D."
 
All I can say is it's going to be a very emotional morning for one who has had the honor and pleasure of knowing and working with Ron for most my professional life. As Ron leaves the building for the last time, this "Fly on the Wall" will shed a tear or two...or probably a few. Don't call me for a while...it will be pretty hard to talk.

Or the Beatles (You Say)Hello, (I Say) Goodbye" or I'll Follow the Sun, or that all time hit from 1966 They're Coming to Take Me Away (to the funny farm).

I don't know if K-LUV plays either one of these songs, but how 'bout either "In My Life" by the Beatles or "My Way" by Frank Sinatra?<P ID="signature">______________

I was thinking maybe -- THE LONG AND WINDING ROAD! or Elvis' version of "MY WAY"...

From someone who will admit that he "stole" a lot from Ron Chapman when I made my living in Lufkin, Texas... they say that Immitation is the greatest form of flattery, and for every "Tease" and every "pause" that is intentional, I just thank Ron for being what he was and is--- The Master of the airwaves. All good things must come to an end, and eras come and go, and even the Red Sox can end a curse! So with that-- I tip my hat, and say with reverence... Thank you Ron-- for 45 years of great Dallas/Ft. Worth Radio, and even for those times that you were the TASK MASTER and even some would say the Tyrant! IT all comes to show that some paid attention, and took what you taught and made it their own.

The Mornings are in good hands with Jody and Crew, and I hope that one day we will once again cross paths so I might say Thank you to you in person!

Just A THOUGHT!

Last Song

Maybe it will be
"Thank You For Being A Friend" by Andrew Gold.
 
Re: Last Song

I'm thinking "And the Beat Goes On" by Sonny and Cher...
