… It’s so much fun being a disc jockey, you get to work on Christmas Day …
Johnny Andrews was the midday personality over the station’s 3-year Top 40 run. Prior to WRC, Andrews had worked for Susquehanna at WHLO in Akron, Ohio for twelve years.
Lee Sherwood, first Top-40 PD at WRC, told me that he was driving through Ohio and heard Andrews. Sherwood said that Andrews was exactly the voice he was looking for, and that he called Andrews on the spot to offer him a job. Andrews immediately responded, “I’ll take it.”
After WRC’s Top-40 format succumbed in 1975, Andrews rejoined Susquehanna as Operations Manager of WSBA in York, PA. He later became VP & General Manager at KTAR in Phoenix, AZ.
