Tony "The Tiger" Taylor came to WQXI replacing Rod Roddy who had followed my regular 9-12 slot. Tony and I did numerous two-voice spots for an extended period. Additionally, Tony was the original voice for the Home Depot commercials.

After success in New York at WOR-FM, WNEW and WNBC, Tony returned to Atlanta and then headed a boutique ad agency for which Atlanta's premier Mercedes Benz dealer was his number one client.

Tony Taylor passed away Sunday, June 18, 2017. He was a 2008 Career Achievement Inductee into the Georgia Radio Hall of Fame.

COMMENTS (below) reveal this recording was actually a RE-CREATION, broadcast on April 1, 1985.
