Tune in to great music
on your local radio dial
Since the first radio was invented music,
commercials and endless jabber filtered into
American homes and cars. And whether you
like rock and roll, jazz, country western or
classical, Bryan-College Station has a radio
station for you.
At Ease has decided to take a look at the
various local stations and the eccentric disc-
jockeys whose job it is to continue broadcast
ing in that fine American tradition of variety
and freedom of the media.
In fact, the choice in local radio stations
ranges from commercial stations to student-
oriented, student-organized stations. All it
takes is a little time to spin the dial and find
your favorite sound.
Or you can pick up this week's issue of At
Ease and read yourself towards perfect listen
ing pleasure.
DJ profile
by Dayna Boren
Battalion reporter
Disc jockeys are a strange
breed of people. Just ask Ed
O'Brian, he'll tell you so. In his
own words, he's a fool—a crazy
fool. But then again, he'd have
to be — he's a morning DJ at the
KTAM radio station.
Just when most people are
falling into their last dream
stage, Ed has already had his
daily dose of breakfast and the
Wallstreet Journal and is busily
polishing his wit and charm for
the morning. He has to if he
wants to keep a listening audi
ence.
His dress changes with his
mood. And his mood depends
upon both the weather and the
night before, he said. Today he
wears his turtle-green pullover
sweater, combined with early-
70's plaid pants — which reveal
perhaps this particular morning
he's ready for almost anything.
The announcer, 40, whose
curly-black hair and dark eyes
reflect his Puerto Rican heritage,
tries hard to look as young as
most of his listeners. Every
house he has ever lived in has a
complete gym set. His muscular
build helps him keep his age sec
ret safe.
“One thing I can't stand," he
