Shotgun Tom Kelly and Bob Berry Detroit Radio Reunion, 2005<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

By Bob Berry<\/p>\n

Detroit has had a Hall of Fame’s worth of great disc jockeys.<\/p>\n

Not just our beloved Keener jocks<\/strong><\/a>, but\u00a0 JP McCarthy, Fred Wolfe, Lee Alan, Big Jim Edwards, Tom Shannon, “Frantic” Ernie Durham and Martha Jean “The Queen”.<\/p>\n

And, of course, Jim Harper and the late Alan Almond, who took the Keener DNA<\/strong><\/a> embedded in the walls of 15001 Michigan Avenue,\u00a0 and helped make what was WKNR-FM into the powerhouse WNIC.<\/p>\n

Today, on “Throwback Thursday”, Keener 13.com honors a friend who would have fit right in with those Motor City legends, Shotgun Tom Kelly from K-Earth 101 in Los Angeles. After some 20 years in afternoon drive on K-Earth, Shotgun Tom is hangin’ up the headphones<\/strong><\/a>, moving into a new role as an ambassador for the station.\u00a0 Riding the 405 won’t be the same without him. And “you better believe it, baby!”.<\/p>\n
