Control Quote by Uncle Kracker
“It wasn't until I got older that when they started putting only one form of music on the stations where I grew up. I would hear a R&B song, followed by a pop song, and then, maybe a jazz song. Maybe that was disc jockeys having a little more control, but it sure made radio feel so good.”
