Doc Perryman

For 17 years, Horace "Doc" Perryman hosted a Saturday night into Sunday morning (10:00pm-7:00am) music show featuring the best of Jazz and Soul. The show was very unique for the time, in that Doc was able to program the music and content entirely on his own. His show had listeners from 38 states and half of Canada due to WGY's strong nighttime signal. In this episode, Doc talks about his time at WGY and the difficulties he faced in the 1960s and 1970s as a man of color.
