As PM in Dearborn Heights MI I was also the evnt coordinator for most Detroit conventions the Detroit Grand Prix the Super Bowl in Pontiac the first ever worked by the USPO. My reason for responding is my connection with JP in the morning for evert coverage through Hal Youngblood if I remember right was the BEST coverage anyone could ever get in this area. That brief minute or so was fantastic for the coverage it created. JP absolutely the best and t hisc84 year old still misses him.
Thank you Bob Karpinski for sharing your comments and passion of a GREAT Detroit radio broadcasting legend — J. P. McCartney on WJR mornings — during his almost 30-year run here in Detroit from the ’60s and into the ’90s. Unforgettable!

Comment correct except for misprint on last line and can be used any way you want to keep the JP McCarthy radionics dynasty alive and not forgotten.
