Jamey Karr


Meet Jamey Karr from Amarillo, Texas.

I bought my first America record in 1972 .. and I was hooked. I finally got to see them July 4th, 1974 in Las Cruces, New Mexico. I still to this day say that was the best concert I have ever seen. I saw them 3 more times in El Paso, three times in Amarillo, including driving the very next day after Amarillo to Portales, New Mexico where I saw them again.

I buy everything that they are on. I've been in radio in since 1972. I've been a music director and a Program Director since 1975 and I have played them at every station. I've been with my current station (KACV FM90) since 1985 and we play America almost everyday. You can even listen to the radio station live on the Internet.

I'm glad to be in good company here.


Update 12 October 2006
I am now working as General Manager of KXGL (FM 100.9 The Eagle) in Amarillo and I'm part of the morning show. Click here for the KXGL web site where you'll see a very familiar album cover scrolling on the left hand side and you can even listen to us live online.

Feel free to send your comments or questions to Jamey.
