“I have been doing some on-air shifts at AM740 on and off in 2009, and I am thrilled to have landed a permanent spot on the “Sixties At Six” sponsored by The Old Mill Inn and Spa. I talk to many people who are loyal to AM740 and they all love the Music as much as I do. It’s great to be here working with the “BEST OF THE BEST”

Hi Robbie!
Great to hear you on 740 – I can hear you in the car every day, all the way here in Callander. Awesome programming man! I am not sure if you remember me, but I used to date Lori, many years ago. You took me to Lulu’s where we sang Hey Jude on stage, and Lori and I stayed with you for the Phil Collins ‘No Jacket Required’ tour. Again, great show, keep up the terrific work!
Maybe throw a little ‘Bo Diddley’ in there from The Hawks?
Thanks again Robbie,
Jay

My wife and I were listening to your program from 6-7 and heard your comments about Petula Clark. Because of hearing about her from you, we were able to attend the event in Wiarton. We were amazed by her youthful looks and her stage presence. This is a big thanks for mentioning this on your program this summer. It was a fantastic night, just amazing seeing her actually here in Ont. She really is “down to earth”, easy to ask questions of etc. We enjoyed the movie that she was in, in her youth. She also waved her fee to charity that night which we thought was really great of her.
Robbie I forgot to sign my first “E” mail.

Robbie,
It is great to hear you on AM740. I am from the Buffalo, NY area and listen to AM740, as we don’t really have good oldies in Buffalo. We used to.

Year ago, more than I care to mention, I went to school with a fellow
by the name of Bert Hermeston ( I think that’s the spelling ) who
said he played Sax in your band. I always wondered what happened to
him.
Great program

Robbie,
I was at the Chick N Deli yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed your show.
I was wondering if you might be able to get George Oliver to be a guest singer.
Hi Robbie
My friend and I were so glad to hear you are
with AM740, as a great station.
We go back to the Embassy Days where we would go and see you and your band several times a wk
as we enjoyed your music so much and stil do.
We must make it a point to go see you at the
Old Mill.
Oh, also seen Ray Hutchinson at the Embassy
in those days. Do you know how he is doing
these days?
Hope to see you soon at the Old Mill

Hi Robbie,
I really enjoy listening to the oldies you play. I use to go and see
you at the Embassy back in the sixties. I do deliveries in the late
afternoon and always listen to your program. Keep up the great work.
Could you possibly play the song DREAM by the PIED PIPERS.

Hi Robbie,
I was wondering if you ever came in contact with a Ray hutchison
during the early sixtys, I thought he was a fabulos singer and entertainer much like your self, and nice to know that you are still
doing it with your tours and brodcast .
I beleave He was the lead vocolist with a group in montreal and
then struck out on his own .
If you knew of him I would appreciate some back ground on his carear.
ENJOY YOUR PROGRAM. LISTEN TO AM 740 WHILE AT WORK. FIRST BUTTON ON BOTH CARS RADIOS ARE SET TO AM 740. WOULD LOVE TO HEAR JOHNNY TILLOTSON (TALK BACK TREMBLING LIPS) AND (IT KEEPS RIGHT ON A HURTIN). THANKS FOR ALL THE GREAT MEMORIES.
