Phil Collins, Elton John, and Gloria Estefan dominated Adult Contemporary radio back in the 1980s and '90s, yet have disappeared from modern radio. Seemingly, the only time you ever hear them is at the grocery store or your local CVS. This blog remembers the music, the stories and the quirky characters from my days working in Adult Contemporary radio.

Go West - "Faithful"
In 1997, I worked as a board operator for an AC radio station. A board operator did everything a DJ did...except talk. So, I just sat in a room and played music into the wee hours of the night (what a deal!). Around one o'clock in the morning, the afternoon DJ (who went by the nickname "Big Ken") called me and asked if I would play "Faithful" by Go West. He was out on a date with a young lady at the time, and she wanted to hear it. Without question, I found the CD and played the song. Doing something like that today would likely result in my being fired. I certainly hope that girl enjoyed her request, and I wonder how she thanked Big Ken.
