Since 1979, I have been archiving many of America's best personalities on video. My site is called: www.vuolovideo.com and this video tribute to the consummate mid-day personality for more than 36 years on New York's WCBS-FM shows this genuinely nice man who was very popular in the greater NYC area. I shot these video airchecks in November 1987 and the second one ten years later in July 1997. See why Bill Brown was one of a kind. He will surely be missed.
It was through You Tube when I first learned about Ron Lundy's passing, and now it's with this clip that I discover this bad news about Bill Brown. I left home in NJ several yrs ago for a job in Chicago... without question, there is nothing that compares to NYC, and that certainly goes for its radio legends. Another one of those great voices has gone silent. Many thanks for this amazing clip.

"One oh one in the City, with the greatest hits of all time!"
Also the best laugh on CBS-FM. Better than Al Vertucci's.

Bill was the anchor jock to those meteoric guys who worked the airwaves at CBS-FM during the Progressive format and later into the Oldies. Every show was flawless and so tight. He was the consummate professional and a terrific person.
We'll miss the great Bill Brown.

He was always sweet to my wife Millie who worked with him at the station. He was nice when I guessed at the brown bag and was way off. A true gentleman. Thanks for posting this.
