Later he moved to WFUV, Fordham University's station and continued his show there. Terrific radio personality and one of the bedrocks of the FM underground. RiP "Lord I love Spring! The birds, the fair weather, the new flowers. It doesn't get any better than this. HOLY CRAP! what's THAT?!?"

A lot of those DJs are spread around the country. Anyone know where Dave Herman wound up? Haven't heard from him in years.
