    I am a fan of Lite 98.5 station. I like nostalgia tunes. I was surprised the other day to hear Roy Orbison. I love him. Now I was wondering if some songs of Bob Dylan are played. If so, maybe you could research a singer similar to Bob Dylan, and almost the same age, his name is Sixto Rodriguez from Detroit. He was not popular in the USA, but extremely popular in Johannesville and Australia. He was on the news last night. Thank you!

    I am a big fan of your station. I happened upon it about a year ago when it was called Jewel - loved the variety of music and nostalgia tunes. However one observation: at one point the artist's name was shown but not any longer. Why not? I found this airing of artist's name valuable. Is there any way to resume this practice?
