Looking back during WWOZ's birthday week, we found this amazing staff photo from 1983, taken above Tipitina's by photographer Donn Young of New Orleans Magazine. It's filled with WWOZ legends, including Ernie K-Doe, Duke-a-Paducah and BB, Von Turk, Billy Delle, Mike Gourrier, Jivin' Gene Mark... and two show hosts who are still going strong! Can you find them? Scroll down for the answers.
The two show hosts currently active are Hazel the Delta Rambler (Sundays 10 am to noon) and Dan Meyer (Traditional Jazz on Mondays from 9 to 11 am.)
