Re: [IRCA] more San Fran radio memories / OT

[Michael Hawkins <downsized99@xxxxxxxxx>]

Not to mention Tommy Saunders, Russ (The Moose) Syracuse, Tom Donahue.  There's been many great radio personalities in the Bay Area's radio history, and it has been a breeding ground in many ways.  I remember Tom Campbell coming to my high school in the late 60's in his Corvette.  He was so impressed with himself that nobody else needed to be.  I listened to KYA more than KFRC until the birth of album-oriented FM, then I switched to KMPX (which switched to KSAN).  KLIV was a rock station way back in the 60s...several of their DJs from back then are still with the station now in varied capacities.

  Hi, I'll have to catch that on the archives, and it seems they don't
talk about radio's past on there that often, perhaps, because some of
the hoasts like Gene Burns aren't from this area, and my impression of
him, is that he doesn't care about bay area radio, because he wasn't
here in kfrc's hay day, but that is just a perception I have, and Gene
never once mentioned the passing of the legendary doctor Don Rose, a
legend in bay area radio if ever there was a legend, but we mustn't
forget tall tom campbell, big fat Chris Edwards, and Bill Holly, among
others from k y A, and people like doctor soul from k s o l when it was
at 1450, John Hardy, Bob White, and Roland Porter from k d i a, James
Gabbert, and so many other radio personalities, and that is why I
consider the bay area my home.

The older Bernie gets, the more his impressions change. He'll probably
be able to do several voices from "The Exorcist" soon. His voice ain't
what it used to be. I'll have to check it out...it should run until
0100 PT.

not DX, but Bernie Ward on KGO 810 is back talking radio when the
programming was good, with a guest whose name I missed

starting 10pm PDT Friday

he did a pretty passable impression of Wolfman announcing X! E! R! B! .
