Billy Bass is a true legend. A popular DJ at WIXY-1260 who then helped launch progressive rock radio as DJ and program director at the fledgling WMMS, Billy (2nd from left) is credited with breaking artists such as David Bowie nationally by playing their music non-stop in Cleveland. He then went on to an epic career in the music industry in New York and Los Angeles, including senior vice president of Chrysalis Records in the 1980’s and managing Grammy Award winning R&B star Luther Vandross. He is also credited with coining the phrase, “Cleveland: The Rock & Roll Capital of the World.”
