I recall the time when in 1955 I had a tube AM radio I would listen to the Hound on WKBW. He drove around in a 1955 ford with the words Hound dog all over it. I never saw it but I heard it was wild.
If you wanted to hear a record you had to send a letter or post card and ask him to play it. So I did send in a letter. He said my name over the radio and where I was from. That was the thrill of my life when I heard that.He would advertise wine and you could hear him pouring it into a glass. He would call the guys cats and he would refer to your girl as your pretty.
Some times he would play a record three times. He would say one more once and play it again. The Hound and WKBW will live on forever.
