Radio Legend Jim Kerr Looks Back

Jim Ker; Mas and Kerr, 1979

I am grateful to have been mentioned in the latest issue of Billboard magazine by New York radio legend Jim Kerr, whom I had the pleasure of meeting in 1979, at the start of my career. WPLJ, which was my favorite station in those days, signs off forever on May 31st. The end of an era.

"I really loved the 1979-1980 PLJ. Not everybody was a big name, but everybody was good. There was a female artist at the time, Carolyne Mas, she had an album out and it made our Top 95 album list that year. It was a good time.”
