I haven't had a chance to check around yet, but was it Redbeard? Still reading Andy's book and he mentioned that DJ... Michelle In a message dated 12/27/06 8:45:41 AM, casimira@csail.mit.edu writes:

Hi everybody from Giovanni; the dj they mention is called ODIEPUS, and Andy Summers thanked him also at the Hall Of Fame personal speech. The lagend wants that HE started it all, playing Roxanne a lot of times in his radio show on a local radio station; day by day all of the other radio stations heard it and wanted to have a copy as well to be played on their radio shows...and from that the rest is history.
Ciao ciao Giovanni

Blender magazine has a section called "The Greatest Songs Ever" and the song they chose the March 2005 issue was Roxanne. It's an interesting article, and I wondered who the DJ in Austin Texas was that helped our boys become famous. Does anyone know? Is it for real? What other bands did he discover, if any?
I don't remember if this has been posted here before, but here is the link to the article.
