Local radio legend Ed Buchanan, otherwise known as Uncle Buck passed away yesterday at the age of 69. In 1974 He turned a Catholic station into an AOR then Classic Rock powerhouse that serviced most of West Michigan. He was still on the radio doing mornings with a cast of a few and did a Sunday iMorning show called In The Basement With Uncle Buck. His knowledge base was incredible along with his ability to dig up the most obscure songs possible. Every Friday he would play Johnathon Edwards Shanty which he renamed the Friday song. So long Uncle Buck you will be greatly missed.
