1950s Rock ‘n’ Roll Returns To WRTC

First-generation rock of the 1950s and 60s returned to the WRTC airwaves with the debut of Roots Rock Radio on July 2.

Veteran host Dean Farrell — who presents the long-running Soul Express on alternating Saturdays — was blunt for his reason behind the new program: “This music has all but disappeared from the airwaves,” he said, “and I think that’s a crime.”

In true Farrell fashion, he promises to be the daddy-o of the radio spinning these classic platters.
