Bobby Q Day was working at WAMM-AM when he met Earl Clark, who had recently been discharged from the Navy. Word got out that Bobby Q was working with Earl Clark to start a new radio station in Saginaw, Michigan.
Bobby Q:
"One by one the guys that were looking for radio work would contact me... and we would decide on them" That's the way that went. I can't remember who we hired first, probably a fellow named Donnie Cool (Donnie Sweet-Meat Cool).
Bobby rounded the staff with Sadie Satin (midday), Chuck Grazen (news), Speed Demon (7-Midnight) and Juicy Bruce (Midnight).
"Later Earl decided he wanted to be a Jazz DJ and we named him Playboy McCoy".
Sadie Satin was the first voice heard on W3-Soul. She played a song and then she said "here comes Sadie". We were on the air.

Does anyone remember "The Night Bird", Collette Bates?
She played jazz after midnight circa 1975.
Don't remember "The Night Bird", but
Playboy McCoy the station's first Jazz DJ when we first came on the air in 1969.
