Vince Santarelli
in Apple Bites (February, 2001):
-
"Replacing Famous Amos on a permanent basis is going to
be a tough job. Famous was just one of those disc jockeys who made his
show special. He managed to let his personality shine through even within
the confines of a tight format. He was fun to listen to and he always gave
us our 'dime's worth.' Famous tells Apple Bites that he already
has some things in the works ... Thank Heaven there are still some programmers
out there who recognize talent."

Amos can't do better than just about anyone else."

be having fun on the air and actually injects a bit of personality into
the format. What a concept!"
|
Mitch Lebe,
