"Dirty" Don McCoy
Don McCoy with his new radio station.
Dave via Bill Earl sent me the clipping of the article.
If you want to read it online another friend Dave sent me the site to go to
Well I was out in the IE this weekend and listened to 93.5. Broad range of music through 5 decades. I even heard one from the 50s one and from the early 60s. Most of the music is 70-90s, exlcuding disco for some reason. Nonetheless I found the mix pleasing. I don't like RAP music but a couple of songs were played that I enjoyed. I could listen to this station in the background for a long time. I'm an oldies die-hard fan but this station had a great mix. That in itself is strange as stations try to find a narrow niche. I liked it. I heard it all the way to Lake Arrowhead and beyond. We'll see what happens when they bring on live jocks. Right now it's wall to wall music.
