Don Barrett has proven again why he is the choice for LA RADIO PEOPLE....A must read whether you are in the loop or for all you ever wanted to know and thought you did, but there's never a dull moment. What a tribute to all LA RADIO PEOPLE.

If you've ever spent time trapped amongst LA's freeways, waiting for the latest traffic report....lounged alongside the Pacific beachs of LA county beaches grooving the scenery and top 40 radio...or dialed around late at night from wherever you live and caught some of those long distance LA Radio waves...this book is for you,

Don has done the radio buffs of the world a tremendous service in compiling this, a first of its' kind volume of the who's who of LA Radio.

The book is filled with pictures, detailed biographical information and its own Top 10 LA Radio Personalty ranking.

If you love radio like I do, you'll want to snap up a copy of LA Radio People. It's fun, informative and filled with scintillating details about the men and women who make up the wall of sound that is LA Radio.

Don't even pick up this book unless you have a few hours to spare. It's fascinating, and it covers much more than radio. When you look up one of your favorite personalities, you're likely to find out things you never knew, then on the same page, you'll spot someone you didn't even know was ever on the radio...and it keeps going from there. Love the pictures and the "gossipy" inside stuff too. I've never seen a book like this before. Now I wonder why every city doesn't have one.

As a broadcaster, LA Radio People is the best book I've seen covering the air talent of Los Angeles. Great job by Don Barrett
