A Bill Drake Retrospective

A gem from Saga’s Steve Goldstein:

By now you have seen all of the salutes in the trades about Bill Drake and “Boss Radio.”  But what did it sound like?  Why did it win in market after market? 

I asked our resident broadcast historian, Ed Brouder to assemble a little taste.  In addition to co-hosting the morning show on WZID, Manchester, Ed has his own production company.  “Man From Mars” has a  remarkable library of radio history- some 4800 airchecks –all searchable at his website www.manfrommars.com and he was kind enough to share  the enclosed montage.  It is 6 minutes of radio heaven.  Enjoy.
