Enjoyed this first segment. Always liked Gary on the air. Where did you and Norm get those homework questions and answers? Were they real questions from listeners?
Also, a small connection. I bought your parents Granada condo to be a rental. Nice people. Bad investment. Stucco problem.
Very interesting interview. I now know so much more. I cannot wait to hear part 2. It will be” riveting” I did hear an aircheck regarding Kevin,s cash call. I may even have it somewhere. It was on the 1995 reunion.

Gary mentioned Bill Haley and the Comets playing at a drag race in 1973. I was there that night and they were great, much to my surprise.
