… Bob, on the musical Layne …
Bob Layne filled some of WJBK’s “Bellboy” time slots on the weekends in 1964. As I recall, he played more music than most and the show was very fast-paced. This was also the period of the English “invasion” and the subsequent changes taking place in the Rock and Roll era as the Beatles and others came on the scene.
[Uncle Ricky adds:] What a great playlist – Definitely Detroit, with lots of surprises! Our friend Jim Hampton says that Bob Layne (Bob Liggett, Jr.) worked at a number of stations in Detroit, then became a group owner of stations in Michigan and California. He sold them and bought the Bob’s Big Boy restaurant chain, where as of 2007, he was the CEO.
