Brother Bill Bennett WDGY (1956-60), WLOL (1963-65). He had a quad bypass, though after that I watched him eat a steak/lobster dinner drenched in melted butter and gulping wine. His program was described as Jazz and Bits and Pieces of Music.. document.write(new Date().getFullYear()); In the late 1990s he abandoned breaks, moved to L.A. permanently and became a top-of-the-flier adherent of banging, festival house. Photo below is from a 1955 ad for WCOW. Moved to Milwaukee in 1956. DJs played a truly eclectic mix of music from rock and pop's fringes along with jazz and new age. Described as rather idiosyncratic by Mike Neudecker.
