The Co-Write: Covid Quarantine Episode 9 - w/ Eric Nadel - The Voice of the Texas Rangers

Arguably the most recognizable voice to ever appear on The Co-Write, Eric Nadel has been the warm welcome to baseball season we all wait through the dreary Texas winters to hear.  After forty plus years in the radio booth for your Texas Rangers, Eric has imbedded himself and his calls into the memory of every Texas Rangers fan.  As a Ford C. Frick award winner, Eric has been recognized throughout the baseball world as one of the best in his craft.     Aside from his distinguished baseball career, and his recognized bibliography, Eric has been an avid fan and promoter of the local D/FW music scene.  From his support of Daphne Willis, to his massively successful birthday shows that support the Dallas charity Focus on Teens, Eric has used his position as one of the great broadcasters in America to place artists in front of large crowds on a regular basis.     On this episode …    Eric's introduction to local music from a bit of a famous source (Off the top)    Eric talks about his experience as a talent buyer at some great Dallas venues (8:33)   Who were Eric's earliest music god's (14:34)   Will baseball come back in 2020, and if so, what does it mean for broadcasters?
