Bob, for all the decades you were on the air, I didn't tune in until a few months before your hiatus. Your return ends one small devastation in a time of great devastations. I'm so glad you can spin again without dodging potholes on the way.

Dennis-Martin Lamble very under-rated drummer, very versatile, great with mallets and provided just whatever a song needed.
