Joe Dickey was in Sales at KAAY for many, many years. Joe is also a great character voice and we called on Joe many times for various characters. Joe is also a great addlibber. Sometimes Joe would call in on the night show and do a great bit on the air. He had a long running bit about Harry McFetridge who was driving a low boy truck with a giant sparrow on the way to Nashville to appear on the Grand Ole Opry. I wish we had a recording. There is a recording of Joe playing the part of a slot machine on Ear On Arkansas. On this cut you will also hear George Jennings and Walt Sadler a/k/a Ron Owens. This is from an album of the best of Ear On Arkansas for the year 1967. This is part 1.
