    Yes, I just heard it this morning ... they played The Kinks "Around the Dial" in his honor this morning on Deep Tracks.

    Grew up listening to all those guys (Scott Muni, Vin Scelsa, Dennis Elsas, Alison Steele, etc.) on WNEW out of NY in the late 70's and early 80's.

    I grew up listening to them, too.  Vin and Dennis are still around, aren't they?
