One thing this article does not mention. Bob was at K/MEN June 1965 until he went back to KFXM February 1966 though September 1966
Had one of the best dry sense of humor ever in IE radio. Always enjoyed his quirks and comments on just about anything. ALways enjoyed the "BG get together" at KFXM.
I see he's one of those that got dumped enmasse when station moved to Holiday INN in Oct 63. All new jocks and tumoil ahead. KFXM seemed to be lost for a year. No real direction but great new digs at Holiday Inn. Then AL Anthony woke up the Tiger Radio. Dramatic changes in jocks, promotion, and overall new sound. He gave the station direction. It was on idle for too long. It was like a changing a 25 watt bult to 100 watts.
10-4 Good Buddy on that olde great sounding sentillating muzak from stereo KDUO-FM! I'd forgotten the dial position but didn't it used to have a jingle to it?
