Ben Vaughn

His radio show begins with - “Broadcasting from Parts Unknown…” but we do know that Ben Vaughn grew up in the Philadelphia area on the New Jersey side of the river. When he was only 6 years old, his uncle gave him a Duane Eddy album. That record would have a profound impact on young Ben, who was playing drums in a garage band by the time he was 12. His interest then turned to the guitar.
In the early ’80s, his band, the Ben Vaughn Combo recorded and released two albums and did a few tours of the U.S. - the albums got great reviews in Rolling Stone and the band got exposure on MTV. Marshall Crenshaw took notice and recorded one of Ben’s songs.
Ben Vaughn has been recording, performing, touring and providing scores for films and TV theme songs for years now. He still finds time to host what, in this fan’s opinion, is one of the greatest radio shows on the airwaves. He also found time to call in…to Frets.
