We’re back on the air for Show Number Eighteen (18). It was around a year ago that I was privileged as was our executive producer Jeanine to attend a music concert in Scranton, PA, to a packed house/audience. The concert featured our Guest today Dave Revels: songwriter, singer, musician, music publisher, agent and manager of musical groups. The Musical Presentation was THE SHADOWS OF THE 60’S…The # ONE Motown Reenactment show sold out at every performance! David welcome to our Philadelphia Audience. David you have been privileged to have joined your voice with the voices of two Legendary Soul Groups: The Persuasions and The Drifters. Please share with our Philadelphia Audience the excitement to have been part of these wonderful musical groups.

In the early ‘60s Billy formed Billy and the Essentials and was a favorite on Bandstand, and of pioneer rock and roll stations with DJs Jerry Blavat and Hy Lit.
