Cuzzin' Linnie, real name Linwood Henderson, was the first black jock on KLIF. He did overnights and cooked all night long! Linnie arrived in 1969 and left in 1974 in a legal tangle, returning in 78. Linnie went to KKDA AM for many years after KLIF. Also must send my condolences out to my boy producer T. Lowe Linnie was his father & i had no idea stay strong
More info on this as i get this the portion below i got from Robert Wilonsky of the Dallas Observer
It's likely you never knew Linwood Henderson by his real name; few did. For decades, since the late 1960s, he was better known by his other name: Cuzzin' Linnie, or Cousin Linnie to the uninitiated. His was an estimable career that stretched all the way from KLIF (when it was The Mighty 1190) during its go-go rock-n-pop days to KXXK ("For Groovy Grown-Ups") to KKDA-AM (Soul 73, from which he and Al Lipscomb and John Wiley Price were unceremoniously dropped in 1998) to KNON.
