Kudos, Bob Shannon! I just read Allan's post and now the article about you! You are THE Consummate Professional and you should be proud! I say this because you always tried your best during those 2 years without CBS-FM. We, as air talent must put our best energy forward, following the directions of our program directors, no matter the format. You did all this during CBS-FM's 2 year hiatus, yet keeping the hope, image and memory of CBS-FM alive and at the same time excelling at you other station and doing what you do best.
Bob, you did this at WYNY and I for one, feel very blessed and fortunate to have shared the microphone with you there.
Allen, I only wish the late Rick Sklar were alive to hear what Brian Thomas, Dan Mason, Bob Shannon and the rest of the CBS-FM talented air staff have brought back to the city of New York and to listeners over the internet--Rick would have loved this kind of positive, creative on air radio with an exceptional choice of music--entertainment and company for listeners all over.
Congratulations, CBS-FM!
