His voice has been in your car, home, earbuds and at your favorite restaurant for over 40 years. Johnny Burke has been on air around the state of Michigan, since 1980 when he had his first Michigan job in Flint at WTRX. Known to give back to communities as much as provide a much needed morning wake-up, Burke has been broadcasting out of Flint on 103.9 The Fox (WRSR) since 2017 after over 25 years at WHNN in Saginaw. His drive to continue to be for a community rather than a corporation has been a feather in the cap to local radio, as he points out in this podcast.

From Cleveland, Buffalo, Las Vegas, to here, Burke has interviewed nearly everyone from Frank Zappa to Bob Newhart. He spills the beans on the best and worst interviews. He talks about the Michigan legends ? and Ted Nugent on how they can be relentless in their own ways on radio and how Bob Seger and Madonna have eluded him. Burke does not hold back and this podcast takes us from his beginnings to now, and where he hopes to be in ten years. Tune in NOW for some OVERTIME with this awesome on-air personality!

Michigan Rock Vocal/bassist/songwriter legend Al Jacquez is no stranger to the music business. Straddling the comforts of positivity post-Savage Grace (which formed out of The Scarlet Letter), Jacquez looks back in fondness and care at the legend that Warner Brothers once held high on its record label. Jacquez maintained the rougher elements of the final years of the band and the reunion album that was released nearly 20 years ago helped cement credibility, friendships, and the magic that the group once had. They released Savage Grace I, II and in 2006 a reunion album (III) called One Night In America.

Still at the top of the vocal game, Jacquez performed as a member of the Dick Wagner Band during Wagner's final touring years and has continued to sing the songs he was known for from the late '60s and early '70s, amongst many others. Always surrounded with great guitar partners, Jacquez still touts Savage Grace partner Ron Koss as a favorite, as well as Silver Bullet Band's Drew Abbott, whom he plays with on occasion. Jacquez was inducted with Savage Grace into the Michigan Rock and Roll Legends Hall of Fame in 2021 and performed in Bay City the day after taping this historical podcast at the MMHP Dunlop Songwriters Stage.

Al offers up live songs, the move back to Michigan, backstory on the reunion album, the abundance of his faith, the loss of Ron Koss and why his voice continues to be his most important tool--all here in Part 2 of 2. Dig in...
