THE REAL DON STEELE! WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT THIS NATURAL RADIO TALENT THAT HAS'NT BEEN SAID BY ANYONE AND EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER BEEN A RADIO DJ? HE WAS ABSOLUTLY THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS.
I FIRST HEARD HIM ON OUR OWN KISN RADIO IN THE SUMMER OF 63 UNTILL HE LEFT US FOR SAN FRANCISCO IN AUGUST OF 64.I THEN HEARD
HIM AGAIN ON THE FAMOUS BOSS RADIO SOUND OF KHJ WHEN I HIT LA IN JUNE OF 70 AND FOLLOWED HIM OVER TO KIQQ IN MID 73.I MOVED BACK TO PORTLAND IN SEPTEMBER OF 74 BUT WOULD CONTINUE TO LOOK FOR HIM WHENEVER I RETURNED TO LA FOR MEETINGS OR VACATION.WHEN
HE PASSED ON AUGUST 5th 1997, IT WAS LIKE I HAD LOST A PERSONAL FRIEND OF MANY YEARS EVEN THOUGH I HAD NEVER MET HIM.HIS ABILITY TO POST A RECORD, NO MATTER HOW MUCH TIME HE HAD, WAS SECOND TO NONE.WITH RADIO BEING WHAT IT IS TODAY, I DON'T THINK THERE WILL EVER BE ANYONE AGAIN LIKE THE REAL DON STEEL!
