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.

Rarely Heard Asia – Today’s Vinyl Vault
It's back to MTV's formative years on the Vault today with Asia, an act owing much to the video channel for their success. They even sang about VJ's as opposed to DJ's. We called it modern art rock, with "old", even then, art rockers forming a new and exciting sound...

High Octane Deep Purple MK III – Today’s Vinyl Vault
David Coverdale's quiet and shy beginnings with Deep Purple were nothing of the sort. He was hired in 1973 to replace the classic throat of Ian Gillan, no easy task I would guess, but pulled it off and then some. The band forged on nearly eclipsing the Machine Head days in popularity...

Crosby, Stills & Nash Fans – Don’t Miss Today’s Vault!
The 1977 CSN album that did so well for Crosby, Stills & Nash has mysteriously went MIA. This was a huge hit album then, but for some reason or another, radio has dropped it from their playlists over the years, and now is relegated to special programming like the Vinyl Vault. ...

Hurdy Gurdy Psychedelia – Today’s Vinyl Vault
An old Donovan favorite gets the nod today, Hurdy Gurdy Man from later in his career, around 1968. This psychedelic nugget is interesting in many ways, some, being a harder rock style than Donovan's usual peace love dove mellow yellow stuff, he wrote it for another band until he decided to just record it himself, and was believed to have a pre Led Zeppelin line-up playing on it...

Classic Dave Mason – Today’s Vinyl Vault
Guitar aficionados would certainly appreciate Rock N Roll Hall of Famer Dave Mason's work over the years. He's never been anything fancy, loud or offensive ... just a pure clear player that is still, after all this time, very good. Mostly known for his mid to late 1970's solo work, he's done a lot more with some great people...
