Magic Marc who did nights there in the early 90's? I lost track of him after he went to Boston, but loved listening to him. Any idea if he is still in radio?

I lost track of him as well, but I know that in the mid-90s he was hosting a morning show in Virgina Beach. A few years later, I had heard he was in Milwaukee. He left his mark, no pun intended, on Providence nights, as TJ Napp essentially plagiarized Magic Marc's entire show when the former inherited Magic Marc's night show.

Among other things that I can remember, the "Fast Five at Nine" and the "Work It or Jerk It." I am not saying that TJ Napp was not a good jock; his show, however, in my opinion, was not original.

My point is that while CHR stations have some common nightshow elements, TJ Napp could have put his own stamp on his show. Not only did he use Magic Marc's countdown name and new music terminology, he often tried to imitate Magic Marc's phrases and the way that the latter interacted with callers. When TJ left PRO-FM, he developed more of his own style, especially when he did middays at Y-100 in Fort Lauderdale.

If I am not mistaken, after a stint in the coveted afternoon driver's seat at once-great WFLZ/Tampa, he moved onto 104.7 WNOK/Columbia, SC, a CHR of which he became PD.
