Gary Jeff's Bio
After nearly 30 years in radio, Gary Jeff Walker is still feverishly trying to get it right. A songwriter who should never be confused with a Jerry Jeff Walker (no relation), Gary Jeff remains committed to music. A singer who performs regularly around the Tri-State area, Mr. Walker has not quit his day job. Nor should he.
Stints in Nashville and Chattanooga, plus Dayton, and now Cincinnati have led Gary Jeff to understand broadcasting is what he does best. He has a real love for classic rock and a real knowledge of the history of the music many of us grew up with
You can hear Gary Jeff Walker from to on 92.5 FM. In addition, he has hosted Breakfast with The Beatles Sunday mornings on The Fox since 1995.
The wry (rye?) wit still comes through, the information is top notch, and the passion for his profession, his listeners and the music itself is obvious in every program. Let Gary Jeff drive you home. He has a valid Kentucky driver's license (or a reasonable facsimile).
Jimi, Janis, Jim, Elvis; we see so many in rock and roll die 'before their time', whatever that means. It obviously was 'their time' because they died. Still, fans seem to never be able to let them go.
Stevie Ray Vaughan's time was up in the early morning hours of august 27th, 18 years ago this week- and his passing was especially hard to digest.
He did not die of drug or alcohol abuse even though his addiction problems and subsequent rehab stints are well documented. Stevie Ray simply got into a helicopter after a gig where shined as bright or brighter than the other greats on stage. Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Robert Cray and Stevie Ray's older brother who inspired him to play in the first place, Jimmie, were all part of that encore jam. The helicopter never came down the way a helicopter is supposed to. It was just Stevie Ray's time.
Many times the deceased star is made into some kind of god after his or her passing. Almost everyone who heard Stevie play- from ordinary fans to the likes of Jackson Browne and David Bowie, worshipped the blinding electrified blues playing of Vaughan while he was still very much alive.
It is hard to let go of a once in a lifetime genius like Stevie Ray Vaughan. It's impossible to forget how he bridged the gap between rock and blues like no one artist had really done before. How he brought blues back from the near brink of extinction to the limelight of the mainstream. R.I.P. Stevie Ray, we were lucky to have the time with you that we did. Even after 'your time' you still shine.
A long time ago, this Zimmerman kid comes out of Duluth, Minnesota on a mission to find out what the rest of the world was about. Since he first touched down in New York City in the early 1960's, he has been telling the rest of us what it all was about.
From folk to rock to gospel and back again, Bob Dylan defies description and loathes any description of who people think he is. He is simply, America's greatest living poet. He is the voice of the common and the uncommon, the destitute and elite, the prostitute and the john, the player and the fan. He is the court jester and the king. He is the singer and the song. He is hayseed and socialite. He is onstage Friday (8/22) at National City Pavillion at Riverbend. One of the can't miss opportunities of a lifetime. He can tell ya what it's all about- you just have to listen.
