talk guy playing the hits!


the talk guy and his music...

I’m sure if Neil Rogers were still around he would disagree...but I have great taste in music!
Back when we were running away with top demos in EVERY category including “teens” on WINZ-AM  Miami I used to play a song or two every few days and got very positive feedback from listeners on what I played.  (The engineers warned me about the “highs” of the music not making it well on the big AM signal but I did it anyway.
