Remember lots of entertaining nights listening to him ... RIP

Post by: Gefn on April 14, 2018, 08:29:25 am: I spent many a night with insomnia back in the 90s listening to Art Bell , back in the day when he was married to Ramona and had the kitty cam.

Heâ€™s with Ramona now. And his kitties.

Thanks Art, for some great radio shows. R.I.P.

He was one of a kind, imho.

Glad you have warm memories of him.

Blessings,

Thanks. Likewise.

Getting over 2nd bout of chest congestion. Sigh. Hanging in there, otherwise. Thanks for asking.

God's best to you and those you love.

Smoking is not a life extending habit.

Indeed.

Post by: Frank Cannon on April 14, 2018, 05:13:57 pm: I loved Art Bell. He was out of his mind but with his smooth radio presence after a couple hours of listening to him you were convinced Hitler was a space alien and Big Foot was designing surveillance equipment for the FBI.

Post by: TomSea on April 14, 2018, 05:17:24 pm: Art Bell put Roswell New Mexico on the map per the UFO crash (or some say the crash was actually in Corona New Mexico but anyhoo) and Area 51 a bit as well. UFO's became a bit of a cottage industry.

To me, it seems he may have had a bit of a smoker's voice, I think it can affect people but maybe not always.
