Wow, I like it! By the time I got here in 1981 they were quite a bit more leading edge rock then that and not quite what I was looking for musically.

I did listen though. John Boy by himself didn't work for me but when he teamed up with Billy it was magic! Jeff Wicker was always a friendly voice I enjoyed, and Fred Story's Jazz Flavors was a Sunday night favorite of mine. Fred has a voice that all us DJ"S only wish we had and lots of talent behind it too!

Thanks for reminding me!
