Dick is one of the immortals of rock and roll radio broadcasting.  I listened to him on WLS 890 in Chicago in the early 1960s as WLS had one of the strongest signals on the AM dial at night in Casper.

When I visited southern California in the mid 1960s I again heard Dick on KRLA in Pasadena.

I met Dick at WLS-FM on October 1, 2008 and it was great to meet him and share of my memories of the highlights of rock and roll.
