Afternoon drive talent, Eric Chase, began his career as a Drake “Boss Jock” doing afternoon drive at KGB-San Diego, then joined a legendary team at KFRC-San Francisco. He rejoined Bill Drake at K-100, Los Angeles, along with Robert W. Morgan and The Real Don Steele. Moving on, Chase did afternoons at KFI-Los Angeles, during its Top 40 days. In LA, he also voiced several national TV shows, did dozens of national commercials and is the DJ one hears in the song “On The Radio” on the Cheap Trick “Heaven Tonight” album. After a brief stint at KJR-Seattle, Eric joined KRBE-Houston.

In Houston, Chase programmed the nation’s first Classic Rock station, KRBE-AM. Classic Rock 1070 held the federal service mark for the term “Classic Rock”, but allowed it to go public domain. Returning to his Top 40 roots, Eric programmed KRBE-FM, while doing morning drive, and took it to #1. Finally, Chase was part of one of the nation’s most successful format kick-offs ever—that of Mix 96.5 Houston, where he was the highest rated jock for 12 straight years. |
