WCHB was rated as Detroit's top R&B radio station in 1965 [[just topping WJLB) even though the top local R&B radio DJ back then was WJLB's Ernie Durham.
The top DJ over at WCHB was LeBaron Taylor with Butterball & Bill Williams trailing a long way behind.
However another WCHB DJ also gets a mention in dispatches; Donny Brooks !!
I guess this is the Donny Brooks who had started out in St Louis with WBBR & KATZ.
He later turned up on in Philly with WDAS in 1967 before returning to KATZ where he remained a top spinner into the 70's thereby establishing himself as one of the top radio guys on the St Louis airwaves.
Anyone here remember him from his time on WCHB ??
Was he with the station for any length of time ?
