An east coast soul DJ or "personality jock" who recorded a track called Soul Travelin' that name dropped popular soul & R&B artists of the 60's & 70's. Byrd grew up listening to Buffalo NY's main R&B DJs on WUFO, Eddie O'Jay and Hound Dog Lorenz. Byrd later worked for the station himself as a teenager, shifting his tastes from John Coltrane to Smokey Robinson. In the mid-60's when Byrd started in the record biz, popular jocks could still break records on their word alone, and Byrd made an impact in Buffalo even as a high school student.
