Bobby
Lyons Great entertainer, great voice, fantastic personality.
Everyone loved Bobby Lyons. He worked at WFLA in Tampa Bay in
the early 1960s and was their morning man. He left to go to Miami where he worked for
several years. Classy deep voice, standard
for DJs of his era.
Paul Woodward says "As a Radio person
during the 50's-70's -- I began hearing Bobby Lyons and his
den in Miami on WQAM, he left WQAM and spent 1 year in Philly,
on WIP... came back to Miami and was on WIOD, WKAT, left Miami
for Ft. Lauderdale, WWIL, wore his welcome out in South Florida
and moved to Tampa. He was on many stations, WFLA, WALT, WLCY & WINQ.
Bobby was very talented, but booze got in his way... He was
one of my all time favorites."
Bobby passed away in the early 1970s. |
