    I have been in and out of beach/blues music for many years and have listened to many dee jays across the country. I have always thought of Pat Gwinn as being the "Dick Clark" of beach/blues music. His professional attitude, approach and incredible voice is very soothing to his listeners and keeps them on the cutting edge of current and past material. Pat has the wisdom and knowledge to play the material that will give the greatest exposure to the artists and the best choices and diversity to his loyal audiences across the country. He is certainly a mainstay in the industry and has contributed so much over the years. Many thanks to you Pat for your continuing contributions to the music industry.

Hi Pat,

    I also grew up in Eastern NC. RM, Wilson, Durham,
    Goldsboro, Wilmington. During the 50s when all that
    GREAT music was hapening. I had an Uncle named
    Robert Barts that lived near Atlantic Beach in the
    early 50s. He repaired the Games in the joints at
    Atlantic Beach and also worked on the Juke Boxes in
    that area. This was the time that he was converting
    the Juke Boxes to play 45s instead of 78s. He was
    every generous and gave me many 78s and 45s that had all the GREAT Hits back then.

    My Ding A Ling and other Greats were in those freebies. I felt like a
    King. We were living in Wilson at that time.
    Anybody remember the Creamery or Parkers Bar B Que? Mighty good eating there.

    In Wilmington I played in a Band and we went to
    Lejune to play at a Beer Joint. As the Band was
    walking in the front door I got one step in and
    felt a hand grab the Back of my collar to pull me
    back. The bouncer didn't know I was with the Band
    and being very young, he thought I was sneeking in.

    And for Boz, we played the Pavilion several times.
    Also played at Isle Of Palm Beach at a place called
    Little Richards in the late 50s.

    You may call it Rock & Roll, R & B or Beach Music.
    All good memories for me. You can play Clyde
    McPhatter and The Drifters anytime for me.

    Ruby Baby, Money Honey, Shag those Blues away.
