Chickenman Boston connection?

[John Francini]

I remember Chicken Man!  And Jim Runyon, too.  Good pipes.  Being  
completely ignorant of the Beatles at that age (I was 10 or so), I had  
no idea until years later that his sign-off was an instrumental  
version of Ringo Starr's "This Boy".

"A Runyon Named Jim".
