SCROLL DOWN for JAY's BIO -

I was born in St. Louis and grew up here, Minneapolis and San Jose, California...a multi-city childhood that prepared me well for the rock band-style, gypsy touring life that is a career in radio.

It's been a blast seeing America by working and living in all quadrants of the USA - I've been to 46 of our states and seen a lot of our amazing country, living and working in places like San Jose/San Francisco, Minneapolis, Seattle, Milwaukee, Norfolk/Virginia Beach, Springfield, IL, Dallas and Charleston, SC. I previously worked in St. Louis radio from 1995-97 when KSD was classic rock - (I think they play Polkas of the Antarctic now).

I came back to StL for good in 2006 to take care of family matters and have been with THE ARCH since June of 2007. It is the most perfect music station I have ever worked for, allowing me to indulge my rawk side as much as my love for pop music. It's my passion to bring all kinds of music to you and to dig around for the fun facts and stories behind the tunes and the people who make them.

I'm really lucky to be on TEAM ARCH, and I really appreciate that YOU listen. Thanks!

THE ARCHIVE - FRI 11/6: I Know There's Something Going On

There’s a lot going on around today’s Archive song – first is the fact that Phil Collins produced this song and plays drums on it – something you’ll know from the first moment….secondly, this song was written by the great RUSS BALLARD, who was a former member of Argent and who wrote great songs like “Liar” for THREE DOG NIGHT, “Winning” for SANTANA, “Since You Been Gone” for RAINBOW and HEAD EAST, “New York Groove” for ACE FREHLEY and of course “Voices” which he did on his own.

He wrote this song for ANNAFRID LYNGSTAD  , better known as FRIDA from Abba (she was the brunette, Agnetha Faltskog was the blonde) – and it became the biggest hit any of the members had outside the band…I KNOW THERE’S SOMETHING GOING ON.

I’ve got two videos for you today – the original clip as you saw it on MTV and a great live version.
