Re: WMPS (for Dano Only)

Absolutely the funniest and most creative radio guy I have ever worked with.
And in my most humble opinion twice the entertainer as Dees. I worked with both and Ron was the most entertaining. And you are right. There is no telling where R-uh-J could be today.

> And that was radio then and should be now. WMPS had the best talent on the air. Every Jock on the air was great and the station sounded like a Top 5 station. And the Jammin' playlist played a big part. As a teenage kid I would listen to Jordan, with Mr. Sears doing news and other jocks just rockin' back in the 70's. See yall on the radio on rock 103 on Saturday morning at 10. Brother Doug.

You're not alone with those sentiments. I thought Dees was great but there was an irreverence to Jordan that has gone unmatched since those days. He wasn't the same R-uh-J when he was on FM100 in the eighties. Man, what a talent.
