When you're in one industry for 50 years you make a lot of friends. Some of those friends turn out to be pretty darn good on the air. Rick Dees is one of those people who became a good friend of the Beasley family and remains close with the family to this day. Dees has a lot of memories and stories to tell about George Beasley in the upcoming issue of Radio Ink that highlights George Beasley's 50 year radio ride. Last night we spoke to Dees about his friendship with the Beasley's and here is just a snippet of what you will hear on November 21st from one of radio's superstars.
