I've wanted to do radio since I was a little kid. I joined the staff at 105-FM WWCK in 1977 and stayed until we were all fired in 1988. I then joined Cars 108 WCRZ for ONE NIGHT in 1989. Please don't remind J. Patrick of this. I've worked at various stations ever since, currently afternoons on US1031 WQUS. I also do photography. Check it out on jeffholbrook.com.

A Cruisin’ Tune – Blackfoot On The Vault
Another Jacksonville, Florida favorite on today's Vinyl Vault, Blackfoot. While not reaching the dizzying heights of other Jacksonville alumni like Lynyrd Skynyrd or the Allman Brothers, they do maintain a fan base that has no intention of forgetting...

One For a Hot Day – Rock Me On The Water
Some earlier Jackson Browne today by request, Rock Me On The Water is a cool little tune from his debut in 1972, that may sound refreshing on a day that is expected to hit 90 degrees! The album's single, Doctor My Eyes got all the attention so you may enjoy hearing this secondary thing that rock radio embraced...
