Blackroc said:I had always assumed he was back in St.Louis. Just thinking about Bruce recently. Did a very good midday for ' BZ.
Bruce apparently went from spinning "Olivia Newton Face," Pablo Cruz, Ambrosia to doing Conservative Talk in SL?

He didn't do mid-days at WBZ-1030 until he returned for a few years in the late 1970's/early 1980's. By then, WBZ was adult contemporary by day and talk by night.
When Jay Dunn left 'BZ in late 1967, Bradley was "promoted" from evenings to afternoon drive (Dick Summer at the same time was "promoted" from overnights to evenings), and stayed in that slot until he left 'BZ (and Boston) about a year later.
Back then, many adults who hated Top-40 rock 'n roll still listened to WBZ because of their top-notch and comprehensive news coverage.
