I hope you’ll make JAM part of your coffee story, too.Today would have been “The Friendly Giant” Bob Homme’s 100th birthday.I can’t be the only one who fought with my brother over which chair we’d get to sit in as the opening credits rolled…“And a rocker over here for one who likes to rock…”In a career that’s spanned 34 years, Eileen Buckley is Buffalo’s all-time most award-winning radio reporter.Given the level of excellence she brings to her work everyday and the fact that she’s done such high-caliber work across four different decades, Buckley leaves WBFO today having been honored more than anyone else ever when you add up time at WBFO, WGR, and WBEN.Her reporting speaks for itself, but she’s also one of the great people I’ve met in broadcasting… a good friend to have out in the field, both personally and professionally.I just hope I still recognize her in Dash’s on Hertel– that she’s not wearing big sunglasses and a floppy hat to keep her new TV fans at bay.Congrats Eileen on starting your television career at Eyewitness News! The coffee really was bad, but it was the best coffee I ever had when Ed would grab two shiny new quarters and ask if I had time to head down to the basement.In his mid-70s, Ed was far and away the oldest guy working at the station and gave weekend news the bigger-than-life sound of a much earlier era with bold writing and bombastic announcing.
He writes about Buffalo’s pop culture history. In fact, none of the commercial buildings visible remain.The houses on the left and the train overpass off in the distance are the only landmarks which still stand.In 1950, there were several car dealers on both sides of Delaware up to the train overpass, including Hunt for Chevrolet. He writes about Buffalo’s pop culture history.
I was about 7 when my parents would load us kids into the backseat of our chocolate brown AMC to drive my ol’man to work early in the morning before we went to school. The men and women who’ve watched and listened to have become family enough that we only need their first names.
With heavy promotion and the hiring of some of the most memorable personalities in Buffalo’s history, the 50,000-watt “KB” blazed a trail for rock ‘n’ roll through the late 1960s.At “KB” and WBNY, the rock-jock rosters were dotted with the splendid talents of DAN NEAVERTH, TOM SHANNON, JOEY REYNOLDS, DICK BIONDI, PERRY ALLEN, LUCKY PIERRE, TOM CLAY, FRED KLESTINE, and RUSS “THE MOOSE” SYRACUSE.WYSL-AM made a valiant effort to take on “KB” but never managed to topple the legendary giant.Sports play-by-play became an enormous audience builder. He was The Beatles favorite musician.Don’t believe the campy persona he lived because he had to because it was just about impossible to be a black gay man in America.From a song writing, music, and showmanship perspective– he invented rock ‘n’ roll.For most of the 1995 football season, Van Miller walked around the Channel 4 and WBEN singing “I’ve Got That Phoenix Feeling,” just that one line, over and over again, getting himself and the rest of us excited about a possible fifth Bills Super Bowl trip.As the playoffs drew near, he wrote the rest of the lyrics and, accompanied by Ken Kaufman, recorded the song.We played the baloney out of it on WBEN, and they played in on Channel 4 several times, too.I later worked with Van at Channel 4, where he often worked my name into tennis highlights for reasons known only to him No one has anchored Buffalo’s TV news at a single station longer than Jacquie. Announcers wore tuxedos as they stood before huge circular microphones and intoned their dulcet announcements to millions.WGR-AM signed on the air in May 1922 and soon was followed by WEBR (1924), WKBW (1926) and WBEN (1930).In the 1940s, radio was the vital communications link between a nation at war overseas and the folks back on the home front, with CBS, NBC and the Mutual Radio Network providing reports from Europe and Asia. After the first commercial radio station KDKA signed on in Pittsburgh, Buffalo was quick to follow when WGR went on the air and put Buffalo on the map in 1922. In 1922, theFederal Telephone & Telegraph Company signed on its radio station WGR for regularly schedule broadcasts. The station's evening news magazine, "Cinema Bob" Stilson, Entercom's creative services director, had a one-hour "Movie Show" that discussed upcoming theatrical releases and aired Fridays during Beach's program from 1997 until Entercom cut Stilson's budget and ended the program in 2017.
