Born in Chicago, Abrams became a radio DJ.
He pioneered systematic audience research and psychographics, connecting people's lifestyles to their listening habits.
He modified the album-oriented rock music format, or AOR, from a looser, freeform style to a tighter form, using playlists rather than allowing DJs the freedom to play anything they chose from albums. This followed the evolution in the late 1960s and 1970s from the music industry's focus on singles to albums. Some of his other work at this time included numerous voice-overs, notably the introduction commentary in "Let's Talk About Me" from the 1984 Alan Parsons Project album Vulture Culture. Abrams co-founded XM Satellite Radio and served as Chief Programming Officer at that company until his departure in 2008. More recently Abrams was the chief innovation officer for the Tribune Company (2008â2010) but prior to that, founded and ran the notable radio consulting company Burkhart/Abrams, served as an internal consultant for ABC Radio, and helped develop nationwide radio formats such as Z-Rock and Radio Disney.

Arlen Roth (born October 30, 1952) is an American guitarist, teacher, and author. From 1982 to 1992, he was a columnist for Guitar Player magazine.

He lived to the age of 100, and was one of the 4 Roth Brothers: Al Ross, Irving Roir, Ben Roth and Salo, all of whom became cartoonists. Al Ross was also a great painter and fine artist, and he was the one who encouraged Arlen to become a guitarist when he saw Arlen playing along with the Flamenco records he would play in the Bronx apartment.

The ground- breaking, unique jazz/R&B/pop group Brian Auger & The Trinity were formed from the ashes of Long John Baldryâs and Brian Augerâs previous group band The Steampacket, an R&B Revue collective, which also featured a then barely known Rod Stewart and Julie Driscoll. Adding the UK's then greatest soul/pop singer Julie Driscoll to this new collective meant that not only did the band have a unique, beautiful voice and face to front the group â Driscoll also embodied everything about the 1960s fashionable It Girl; her sound, her clothes, hair styles and make up assured that nearly as many column inches were dedicated to her stylish demeanour as much as the bandâs genre bending music.
The group were the one of the first too to intentionally set out to break down musical barriers â Brian himself specifically stated in the sleeve notes for 1968s âDefinitely What!â album that his concept âlies along a straight line drawn between pop and jazz and aims at the âfusionâ of both elementsâ. âFusionâ at that time was not even a recognised musical term, reinforcing Augerâs credentials as an originator and innovator.
âBack then the jazz audiences were purists. They really looked down on rock and pop,â he explains. âI had people cross the road when they saw me coming, I was persona non grata at Ronnie Scotts because of the music we were doing and the clothes we were wearingâ.
Happily â audiences of the time didnât take the same dismissive approach, Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger & The Trinity toured the US and had exploded onto American TV screens as guests of The Monkees, and also scored hits across Europe's pop charts via the singles âThis Wheels On Fireâ & âSave Meâ â but simultaneously appeared on the UKâs âTop Of The Popsâ in the same month as headlining major European Jazz Festivals â a feat no other act has equalled since.
Between 1967 and â70, Brian Auger experienced a four year run of unprecedented creativity â 1967âs Open with Julie Driscoll, 1968âs Definitely What!, 1969âs Streetnoise again with Driscoll and 1970âs Befour â taking the Hammond Organ in new directions with their thrilling fusuion fusion of club R&B, jazz and psychedelic cool, engaging both the underground and the mainstream, and bringing the group chart success in the UK and Europe. âI look back on my years with The Trinity as a period of discovery,â Auger concludes. âI didnât know what would happen or where it would take me but we were breaking down barriers and going someplace new.â
