I was amazed! I remember listening to him when he was on the legendary KHJ-AM station (a top 10 station in those days) playing records in the mid-'60s! I figure the guy must be about 70 now, but he sounds as fresh as ever. Music keeps you young, I guess...

In 1970, KHJ had a show that played the Top 100 singles from the 1960s. Naturally, #1 was by the Beatles ("She Loves You").

Good ol' Charlie Tuna...What a flash from the past - Charlie Tuna, Humble Harv, the Real Don Steele (the king of them all)...ah, sweet memories!
