>>>But hearing a DJ that is now dead! <<<
This is the most IDIOTIC reason. That's why the post was deleted. I should really delete this too for the same reason but since you seemed intent on bringing it up, so be it.
Do you object when WABC plays back a Bob Lewis aircheck? How about Churck Leonard? Or Jay Reynolds? Maybe Scott Muni? What do you think, that when someone dies their work should never be heard again?
C'mon. Your criteria is really ridiculous.
>>> I seem to recall Joe Mc Coy eventually stopping the Rock N' Roll Radio Greats weekends because there were an increasing amount of tributes honoring those that have passed on. <<<
Then you "recall" wrong. There was never a reason given but the most widely held belief was it was the same old demos problem. Hearing HOA sing is a little tough on anyone under 60.
