WAPE 690 Jacksonville - Greaseman - Hoyle Dempsey - September 1981 - Radio Aircheck

Great one. He's so funny. Thanks.

Thanks, Ellis, Grease definitely had his schtick, the character bits like old-time radio skits. And yes, he took over mornings at DC-101 after Howard Stern left for New York in '82. And one night that winter, either late '82 or early '83, Grease made a promotional appearance in a mall at Bailey's Crossroad in Northern Virginia, I think that was the location but it was a surreal scene in that it was in the late evening, few people were there, but there was the Greaseman and I enjoyed a short conversation with him, quite friendly and likely making observations to use when he got behind the mike and got into his crazy on-air persona. 😀

Greaseman was definitely one of a kind.

I don’t know how you have the time to post great air checks day after day. Thanks Ellis!

@@jeff11030 As soon as I finish my morning show, I put another video together.

I was a fan of Hoyle Dempsey and Fizz on the morning show a few years later, after WAPE moved to FM.
