Description by Uncle Ricky

Tim Kelly, who founded Premiere Radio Networks and built it into a 220 million dollar company, was born into the radio business. By the age of 17, he was PD at WYSL, Buffalo, and by 1974, he was rockin' the Rockies at Top-40 legend KTLK in Denver.

Tim was also heard on WKBW, WCFL, WPGC, WRKO, KFI, WAKY, KPPL and KIIS, before forming his own radio syndication company, Plain Rap, Inc. in the early 1980s. Tim left Premiere Networks in 2002 to "play golf" and operate a consulting firm, Footsteps, Inc.
