Mateo's Magic Bus on KFFR - Talking radio biz, history and great tunes, the Clif Wilson interview

Broadcast high in the Rockies Thursdays 2PM - 4PM MT on KFFR 88.3-FM, KWTR 89.1-FM, and KFFR.org, Mateo’s Magic Bus takes listeners on a journey around the world, exploring the roots of jazz and blues alongside music from today and the past decades that has been influenced by these incredible art forms.

On this week's ride, DJ Mateo is joined by friend and supporter of KFFR, Clif Wilson, who spent much of his career in radio from the management side, most notably as an executive for a number of years with WXRT FM in Chicago, one of the earth's great radio stations!

We cover the waterfront of the radio business, some stories from the heyday in the 80s and 90s, as well as playing a number of Clif's Pics - great interview, great radio and music!
