Happy Friday! This week’s Radio Ink Blast From The Past is from Dick Bouchard.
“In 1958-59 when this picture was taken, I had been on the air for 3-4 years, having started at WNRI in Nov. of 1955. Yes, I was just 17 and was a full time DJ/announcer back then, fresh out of high school. They called me Rockin’ Dick, so you know which artists I featured!
Now, I am CEO of the same radio station, WNRI-1380 AM & 99.9 FM. I am 84 years old and still do some air work and double as chief engineer.”
Keep on rockin’, Dick! We love sharing your broadcast memories at the end of every week – we even share the best in our print edition every month – and we want to see more! Carts, Reel-to-Reel Machines, and Turntables in your pictures are highly encouraged.
Send your Blast From The Past story and photo to our Online Editor Cameron Coats for your chance to be featured in Radio Ink.
