Oh, yeah, he was as ecclectic as I've ever heard when it came to music choices.....
He'll play the R&B/Disco, but he'll play the jazz, rock, anything. He played Sinatra, Jimmy Smith, Rolling Stones, Led Zep, everything!
I still believe that the Stone's "Miss You" and "Emotional Rescue" are not their biggest hits, ever, without Frankie Crocker. Remember how segregated radio was: rock stations didn't want to play anything with a disco beat, and R&B stations didn't play much of the white rock cats! Frankie Crocker didn't care. If he liked it, he played it!
I remember his show on WMCA right after Jimi Hendrix died. He was friends with Hendrix and had spoken to him a few days before he died.
