Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who couldn't hear the music.

And just look at the hours they had Red working in that CKWX ad...
2 hours doing afternoon drive and back again 11:15 til 1AM Monday to Friday ...PLUS on-air Saturday afternoons and back til TWO AM Saturday nights!!!!!!!!!!!

SIX days a week!!!!!

Before VOICE-TRACKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But any one of us woulda done it; bet he loved every second of it.


Red I don't think you'd remember me by name except that you used to come down to my little studio (National Air), located next to the Powder Blues studio, in the early 80's to record your commercials with me.
Happy Birthday!
Still love listening to you; keep up the good work!

Happy Birthday to Vancouver’s honest to goodness Broadcast Legend, Red Robinson.

Did you know Red is one of only TWO people to introduce the Beatles and Elvis. The other being, Murray “The K” Kaufman, in New York.

The man has been an inspiration and he and his lovely wife Carole, are two of the finest people I know.

Many more, Red!
