    I always liked Bob Coburn. He was a terrific host for Rockline.

    He might have "just" been a rock n roll journalist, but he was a damned good one. He always knew what he was talking about no matter the genre. I know a fair bit about the bands and all that stupid stuff but I certainly could not have ever done his job as well as he did.

    His VH interviews in 1982 and 1984 were legendary. Also loved his Rush episodes. RIP

    Was he also known as "redbeard" or was that someone else? Anyway, RIP.

    Redbeard was a different guy. I enjoyed both him and Coburn. I didn't miss a Rockline for many years!
