Re: Gene Burns & WBZ



Peter Gelzinis' column in the Herald today says
"where have you gone Jerry Williams, a city turns
its lonely eyes to you", or words to that effect.
Gelzinis says that nowadays, talk radio would rather
talk about "public toilet horror stories" (hello,
Howie) than the type of "muckraking" Jerry used
to do.
The column is online at http://www.bostonherald.com

Incidentally, speaking of Gelzinis, I saw a recent
VH-1 "Behind the Music" show about Keith Moon, and
they showed a newspaper clipping about a Who
concert where Moon collapsed; the byline was by
Peter Gelzinis...
