Steve (achaheart.org), SC:

"Wow! I don’t think I’ve heard King of the Road in ... years!"

 

Bill (RacingOne.com):

"GREAT show Cort, nice to sit back and listen to good music you don't hear that often on the radio!!!"

 

Ann (Weber-Stephen Products Co), McHenry IL:

"Sounding good, Cort!  Nice selection of songs.  We laughed earlier when we heard the old hippie song.  Haven't heard that one in a long time, and got a kick out of hearing it again."

 

Phyllis, Elgin IL:

"Quite a nice selection of music and recording artists.  You have a good voice for broadcasting and interesting background to the music played."

"I'll be listening...even to the c/w stuff. :)"

Mike (blue02SS, 2000montecarlo.com), TN...

"I want to say that I have a problem keeping the station on one channel most of the time.  I like variety in my music.  I just wanted to say that I thoroughly enjoyed every song you played today.  I was listening while I did my college work and just loved every song."

 

Rick (blueSSteel, 2000montecarlo.com), VA...

"I've been listening today....  You're doing a great job with a great selection of old songs...."

 

John (chevytalk.org)...

"Even when I asked if you took requests I didn't know what I'd ask for.  You scored a bull's-eye before I had to think about it." [David Allen Coe's, "The Ride"]

 

JJ and Lisa (monteknights.com, montecarloforum.com), Norman OK...

"Hey Cort...i got just about everyone in the chat room tuned into the broadcast. WOOHOO!! How about a shout out to MonteKnights.com?"

 

Lorraine (valvereplacement.com), IL...

"You're song choices are pretty cool!  Quite a variety!"

 

RacinRay (racedaynews)...

"You're a natural talking into the mic...."
