I remember hearing GTM for the first time in 1975 when he was on Boston radio station WCOZ. He left and I never knew where he went. Several years later I was driving through NYC and found GTM while station surfing. I knew I wouldn't keep the signal too long and I was tempted to pull over so I could hear his entire show. I was so happy to have him return to Boston on WBOS and then following him to XM. He was the best voice on radio, played great music and will be missed.
I have fond memories of GTM on his show on the radio, the one in your car or home! Over the air! He hosted "Reeln' in the Years" I have a few of the studio CDs from 1992. Too long to post here but maybe a segment in memory of George!
It's been a year today since he left the planet. A great guy and a good friend.
While XM and Deep Tracks soldier on, they have never really recovered from his loss. A certain cool will always be missing. Must be a great show going on in
what better time to do the woodstock program on xm radio...he'd surely dig that show wouldn't he?heavens rock&roll hall of fame has a new member now.....
I used to listen to him mornings on WZLX, called in a request once, got to talk to him on the phone. It sounds silly but I was totally psyched. He really does have the best radio voice I have ever heard. Even when he did on air commercials he was fabulous, I loved his spot for Brueger's Bagels...yes he was that good. RIP
I used to listen to him on WZLX mid-days and would catch him on Reelin'-in-the-years. I always liked his upbeat personality. He sounded like a true professional speaker and I always felt like it was something special when I caught him on the radio. RIP GTM.

2 years now since he checked out. I still miss his voice on XM in the morning.
XM never recovered from his loss and then the merger. For a brief moment when he was at the helm, radio was everything it could and should be.

GTM was the best . Worked with him for years in Boston, and at XM in DC.

One of the great voices in radio EVER.
He was my friend and one of the main reasons I loved XM so much. Sadly, Deep
Tracks and the XM experience, have not been the same since his departure.

GTM was a great broadcaster and a good long-distance friend. We'd talk at radio conventions.
Deep Tracks consumes a major part of my day!
XM has been a great part of my life since the beginning...and has even made my 15-year old son one of "us."
A good man has arrived in rock and roll heaven.

Thanks for posting this. GTM gave me my first real break in radio in 1974. A true class act who loved radio AND the music. RIP my old friend.
