Don't forget Pete McKay, KBPI, Nostalgic Rock. We listened to every show, every Sunday for 4 or 5 years.

I miss Berg. Over the years, his best buddy Peter Boyles turned into exactly the kind of rightwing conspiracy nut as the neo-Nazis who killed Alan.

There was a hillside restaurant outside of Denver that overlooked the city in the late 1970’s. It was a popular fine dining restaurant for specials occasions and romantic dates. I lived in Northglenn then and I remember taking my now wife of 43 years there for Valentines Day. Does anyone remember the name?

I still remember grandma and grandpa's house in the 200 block of Pearl St. I visited from the mid-50s to the mid-80s and imagine the neighborhood has changed quite a bit during the past 40 years. At well under 1,000 sq. ft., their home was tiny by today's standards, yet they raised a family there.

Elitch's was always a highlight of our visits; that and trips into the Front Range to hike and look back down upon the city. In '63, that was the first time I saw smog.

Hi, I was just reading your comment about the Little Banquet. Do you know the address or exactly where it was located. Do you remember the name of the shopping center.
Blessing to you.
