KROQ air personality Jed the Fish described Rick's personality as "brisk, clever, insightful and considerate." His friend Mike Jacobs described him as a music lover and workaholic.
A few years later KROQ was attracting over a million listeners as Carroll parlayed this success into a consultancy.
Rick, however, allowed KROQ jocks a "JOQ choice." At first jocks had four of these slots per hour to insert their own choices, but ultimately it was reduced to one per hour until the privilege was removed shortly after Rick's death, according to Jed the Fish.

Choose your station on the left or below and then select the year of the list you want.
In fact, as you may notice, there are a lot of songs that got significant airplay but didn't make the lists at all, and I suspect that most of these songs suffered the end of the year bias.
