[BC] Celebrating My Radio Anniversary..

[Steve Newman]

Congrats Paul...

I can't believe this past just June I entered the business 46 years ago. 
Well, being this is my birthday today, I would have been 15 and a half years 
old. I had a weekend show on one of San Francisco's first Stereo stations, 
KMPX-FM. This eventually became the station where Tom Donahue gave birth to 
what became known as "Underground Radio". I then moved on to KSFR-FM as a 
board op. This is where I learned Classical music announcing from the best 
of them. (not to mention the audio)

I think at this point I'm going to pull the "I've got to be there every day" 
part of my life plug and work totally out of my home studio. Enough already. 
Plus, (and gentlemen allow me this one) radio just ain't what is used to be. 
I know there are those who might buck me on this one but that's where I'm at 
on the matter and I only ask you give me a bashing break day on this, my 
62nd.

Again Paul, the best of luck to you in the future. I think Bette Davis put 
it best "Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night". But that's 
OK, you'll handle it.

Steve
