Excelsior! I am one of those folks who listened to Jean on WOR-New York during the later period of his time there; from appx. 1970-1975 when I left for college at SUNY-Binghamton. His show was the highlight
of my weekday evenings and I remain a huge fan to this day.
I have developed a pretty good radio reputation myself as both a webcaster and enthusiastic amateur music interviewer as you will see below. I work as a full-time teacher/therapist in the Tidewater area of southeastern Virginia. My wife and I have happily lived here for over 20 years now.
I am very glad to connect with other Shep fans. I find myself playing my 'fatheadcentral collection' that I received a bunch of years ago in my truck on the way to and from work more than I listen to music or to National Public Radio these days.
Best wishes,
