… Roby Who? …
[Description by Uncle Ricky]
The Big Kahuna Roby Yonge is featured along with his pre-recorded sidekick Gadget on the most-listened-to station in Southern Florida, circa Spring, 1966.
This recording has a high noise level, but higher levels of great PAMS Series 30 (‘N Set) jingles (and some earlier series), plus that boingy-boingy echo produced by a Hammond organ oil-damped (fluid column) reverbation unit.
It’s easy to hear from Yonge’s affable, easy-going performance why he was invited north to WABC a couple of years later.
Roby Yonge died of a heart attack in Miami, Florida on July 18th, 1997. He was 54.
