This shot of former Walla Walla Rock DJ, Dave "Rockin" Cochran of KTEL appeared in a recent addition of the city's paper, the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin. It was from a column by Sara Van Donge about radio from the past, my cousin Burl Barer was also mentioned. The Gallery was a department store in what was then (July 8, 1973), Walla Walla's brand spanking new Eastgate Mall.
I remember seeing Burl for the first time at KTEL when he was just 16. My brother was a radio personality and also did radio sales there, then K-HIT, and KUJ where he did afternoon drive as "Dan Tory" (real name was Daniel Marvin Todorovich).
