I know none of the local radio stations here would play anything but his hits.

Here we are in the 21s Century and the radio industry still holds on to these outdated format ideals. There are only 5 surviving non-country stations here in Phoenix from the old days and they are bor-ing! If I called local Kool-FM Oldies radio and asked them to play anything but a hit,they'd most likely hang up on me. I guess they'd rather stick with the four songs they do play (need I list?) It'd be a great tribute to a man not only turning 65 but to a man who's given and been through so much.
