Gene,

Thanks buddy, those words from you really mean a lot.

You are really appreciated.

A bump for a radio show with steel guitars and Western Swing. Try it, you might really like it.

I was able to sit back and listen to MIke's show Sunday morning.
I really liked the Marty Robbins and Mel Tillis themes as well as the mix of Johnny Mercer tunes.

Another top notch show by a great DJ.

He does not get all the credit he desrves for putting on this Swingin' West Show for over 20 years now.

It's time to applaud him for this.
Don
