Back in April 1974, I spoke with Frank Erwin on the phone, I bet Frank doesn't remember, ha!
If my records are correct...Frank was 25 years old, had been in radio for 5 years, and had been a DJ in Thomaston GA, Tuscaloosa, and then WKGN.
Here are some tidbits of our chat-
Wayne Bernard and Kent Newton became DJs at age 14
When Frank arrived at WKGN, Bobby Rivers was morning DJ
Allen Dennis was now at WDXB Chattanooga and Eddie Beacon was in the sun at WFUN in Miami
Gary Drake had ventured to the #12 market at WIKY Cleveland, owned by the Harlem Globetrotters
Dick Winstead was managing a band
Erwin is his real name, Jerry Steele's name was just his on air name
...and back in '74 WKGN featured Bob Baron, Wayne Bernard, Dave Young, Kent Newton, Jack Gregory, Joe Anderson, Walker Johnson, and the 101 Audio Vault is of Jerry Steele-
