It was GREAT in having recently heard from two of Detroit radio’s finest broadcasters! MCRFB.COM

Marty Bufalini: Just found this site and LOVE IT!!! As a long-time Detroit area broadcaster, it brings back a lot of memories of the friends I’ve worked with. I’ll be visiting this site often!!!

Gary O’Brien: Wow! What an incredible site! I stumbled across it this morning and have been listening and in some cases wiping a tear from my eye. There are so many people on your site that I worked with over the years, especially the late Dave Shafer. What an amazing man to work for. My name is Gary O’Brien and I worked at many stations in Detroit over the years and this site is going to be my new home. The memories are knee deep.

I do have a question for you and hope that you can help me out. I have just finished a book with Art Cervi (Bozo the Clown) about his life and the man behind the make-up entitled “I Did What?” My question is this, there are a couple of pictures that I would like to use in my book that are on your site and I would like to know how I would go about getting permission to include them in the book. One is of Ron Knowles who was doing remotes at a store that Art was working at and told him he was in the wrong business which started him on his path to entertainment. The other is a shot of Robin Seymour who Art became friends with and eventually turned that friendship into Swingin Time.

Any information you can help me with would be greatly appreciated. I’d like to chat more, but I have to get back to your site. It’s the best.

Regards,

Herb Mentzer
