Dear Jeffrey.
I first listened to your Father’s program when I was 12 years old. It was the dawn of Rock and Roll and he was playing what is today referred to as The American song book. I believe that the program began at 10PM and went on till One-ish. So every morning when I got up for school I was bleary eyed kid But well worth it.
I still can hear him say that the theme song was, “You Are The One” by Andre Renee on the RCA label. I am now 71 and I will always be grateful to him.He gave me my music and it has made my life so richer for it.
Sincerly Yours

Ditto. Willie B made an awesome impression on me and I had the absolute pleasure of meeting him, on air, in the studio. Wow. He never went with the trend. He was a good music man and that is why I followed him. To this day he is missed.
it’s true!
willie b was great!!!…i could go on and on about the warmth i feel when i think of him and the show!
i’m just 58 now…so yeah, on the younger side of his audience!
i’ll tell ya how much he meant to me….when i was away going to school in california, on one of my visits back home (n.j.)…i recorded the show and brought it back with me!!! i worked in the audio/video department in the library at foothill college in los altos hills around 1973! …there i was able to listen all the time while i worked!!!
i was lucky enough to record on a day when tony randell was a quest!
it was “friday july 20th ninteen hundred and seventy three” as the wonderful william b williams stated it!!!
just loved the man and the show!!!…i was sick when i heard of his early death…driving west on rt 80 on my way to the poconos!!!
